Q

Patients w/ cardiac disease resulting in an inability to carry on any physical activity w/o discomfort. Symptoms of cardiac insufficiency or the anginal syndrome may be present at rest. If any physical activity is undertaken, discomfort is increased.

Q

Who- IMA to left anterior descending artery?

A

George Green

25
Q

Fundamental cause of coronary artery disease?

A

Atherosclerosis

26
Q

What are the 3 distinct changes MVS?

A

(1) commissural fusion,(2) chordal shortening/ fusion, (3) leaflet fibrosis/ calcification

27
Q

Auscultatory triad?

A

Increased first heart sound, opening snap, apical diastolic rumble

28
Q

Response is LV - dilatation, eccentric hypertrophy leading to cor bovinum

A

Aortic insufficiency

29
Q

Almost always the result of rheumatic fever. Septic endocarditis( iv drug users)

A

Tricuspid stenosis and insufficiency

30
Q

Blood leaks from the aorta to the ventricle during diastole

A

Aortic insufficiency

31
Q

Visible forceful pulses

A

Waterhammer pulse

32
Q

Quickly collapsing pulse

A

Corrigan pulse

33
Q

Readily hear pulses by stethoscope over peripheral arteries

A

Pistolshot pulse

34
Q

Head bobbing

A

Demuset’s sign

35
Q

Fusion of parietal pericardium to epicardium. Scar tissue encases and constricts the heart. Diastolic filling is impeded, CO decreases

A

Chronic constrictive pericarditis

36
Q

Obstruction of flow of blood from left atrium to left ventricle during left ventricular diastole.

A

Mitral Valve Stenosis

37
Q

Pathophysiology of MS

A

Increase in left atrial pressure, pulmonary venous congestion, intact LV function , decrease cardiac output

38
Q

Late effects

A

LA hypertrophy, atrial fibrillation, thrombus formation

39
Q

Back flow of blood into the left atrium

A

Mitral Insufficiency

40
Q

Third most common cause of aortic stenosis most frequent in older patients (7th,8th decade)

A

Calcific stenosis

41
Q

Pathology of mitral insufficiency

A

Defect: mitral annulus, leaflets, chordae, and papillary muscle

42
Q

Consequences of aortic stenosis

A

LV concentric hypertrophy and myocardial ischemia

43
Q

Pathophysiology of mitral insufficiency

A
  • regurgitation of a part of LV volume into the left atrium
  • left atrial enlargement
  • LV enlargement
  • decrease in systolic function
44
Q

Obstruction of blood flow from left ventricle to aorta during systole

A

Aortic stenosis
