201
PABA
metabolite of esters
202
Dipyridamole
phosphodiesterase inhibitor, increases cyclic AMP which blocks the uptake of adenosine, reducing adenosine at the platelet vascular interface or via direct stimulation of prostacyclin release from the endothelium
203
HCTZ electrolytes
Low Na, low K, low Mag, increase Ca and cholesterol labs
204
Only abductor of vocal cords? Innervated by?
posterior cricoarytenoid muscle innervated by RLN
205
Risk factors for post herpetic neuralgia
Age >60, female, severe acute pain
206
Neurotransmitter preganglionic
sympathetic and parasympathetic PREganglionic neurons are cholinergic (release acetylcholine)
207
Neurotransmitter postganglionic sympathetic
POSTganglionic sympathetic neurons are adrenergic and release norepinephrine
208
Neurotransmitter postganglionic parasympathetic
POSTganglionic parasympathetic neurons are and thus release acetylcholine
209
Anterolateral pap muscle
LAD and left circumflex
210
Posteromedial pap muscle
Right coronary - at risk with inferior MI (see MR)
