Q

Diagnosis of aortic dissection

A

♣ Transesophageal echo (TEE) – preferred method in patients with renal insufficiency of hemodynamic instability
♣ CT angiography with contrast – preferred in hemodynamically stable patients; requires contrast so avoid in renal insufficiency
♣ MR angiography – time consuming; avoid in patients with kidney disease

25
What will you see in CSF in bacterial meningitis - Cells - Protein - Glucose - Other
``` Cells = neutrophils Protein = high Glucose = low Other = + culture/gram stain ```
26
What will you see in CSF in viral meningitis - Cells - Protein - Glucose - Other
``` Cells = lymphocytes Protein = high Glucose = normal Other = + viral PCR ```
27
What will you see in CSF in TB meningitis - Cells - Protein - Glucose - Other
``` Cells = lymphocytes Protein = high Glucose = very low Other = acid fast bacilli ```
28
What will you see in CSF in Guillain Barre - Cells - Protein - Glucose - Other
``` Cells = none (normal leukocyte count) Protein = high Glucose = normal ```
29
What FEV1/FVC ratio indicates obstructive lung disease and restrictive lung disease
``` Obstruction = <80% Restriction = >80% (FEV1 and FVC will both be decreased but FVC is more decreased) ```
30
What are considered adequate uterine contractions
Q2-3 min
31
When is amniotomy indicated
For labor induction only if fetus is well applied to the cervix to prevent umbilical cord prolapse (e.g. not indicated if fetus is at -4 station)
32
What is Light criteria for pleural effusion
Exudative = 1/3 criteria - Pleural fluid protein/serum protein ration >0.5 - Plerual fluid LDH/serum LDH ration >0.6 - Pleural fluid LDH >2/3 upper limit of normal serum LDH
33
What can you use to determine cause of ascites
Serum ascites albumin gradient (SAAG) >1.1 = occurs when there is not a lot of stuff in ascites e.g. caused by hydrostatic pressure pushing fluid out <1.1 = lots of stuff in ascites e.g. caused by oncotic pressure pulling fluid in to belly
34
What SAAG will you see in cirrhosis
SAAG >1.1
35
Treatment of hemodynamically stabe V-tach
Anti-arrythmics - Lidocaine - Procainamide - Amiodarone
36
What is Adenosine used for
Supraventricular arrhythmias
37
Describe how chronic kidney disease affects calcium, phosphate, and PTH
Kidney is not able to form active form of Vitamin D = decreased absorption of calcium (hypocalcemia) and decreased secretion of phosphate (hyperphosphatemia) = PTH increases to try to get more calcium (parathyroid hyperplasia) = PTH stimulates bone resorption (renal osteodystrophy)
38
Tx of overflow incontinence
Cholinergic agonists (opposite of oxybutynin) = Want to increase bladder contractility
39
What is used for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis prophylaxis
Fluoroquinolones
40
Most common cause of pneumonia in sickle cell patients
Step pneumo (pt's are at higher risk to encapsulated organisms secondary to asplenia)
41
What are the 4 major side effects of antipsychotic
- Dystonia - Akithisia - Parkinsonism - Tardive dyskinesia
42
Tx of extrapyramidal side effects
Antimuscarinics (Benztropine or Diphenyhydramine)
43
First step in tx of infertility in PCOS
Weight loss
44
What structure might be damaged in fracture to radial shaft
Radial nerve
45
What structure might be damaged in anterior shoulder dislocation
Axillary nerve
46
What does elevated lactate dehydrogenase indicate
Hemolysis
47
What drugs are used for rate control in A-fib
``` Beta blockers (Metoprolol) Non-dihydropyridine CCB (Verapamil, Diltiazem) ```
48
Diagnose: anemia, renal insufficiency, hypercalcemia, fatigue, and weight loss
Multiple myeloma
49
Tx of agitation in the elderly
Haloperidol
50
