Q

NSTEMI ECG criteria

A
  1. New ST depression >0.5mm in two contiguous leads
  2. T wave inversions
  3. prominent R waves (R/S ratio >1)
18
Q

What usually precipitates a STEMI vs a NSTEMI?

A

STEMI- occlusion of blood flow in a coronary vessel

NSTEMI- partial occlusion or complete occlusion with collateral flow

19
Q

When do Troponins typically peak?

A

10-24h

20
Q

Treatment of Stable Angina

A

Lifestyle mods
Aspirin
Statin
Anti-Anginal drugs: B-blockers, CCB

21
Q

Describe External Enhanced Counterpulsations (EECP) Therapy

A

Option to treat stable Angina. Compresses LE’s during diastole

22
Q

CABG Indications

A
  1. 3 vessels @ >70% stenosis
  2. Left main artery disease
  3. LV dysfxn
23
Q

Describe MONA treatment for ACS

A

Morphine
Oxygen
Nitrates
Aspirin

Antiplatelet therapy

24
Q

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (DAPT)

A

Aspirin and P2Y12 Inhibitor

25
Q

Drugs shown to improve mortality rates in MI patients

A
  1. ASA
  2. B-blockers
  3. ACE Inhbitors
26
Q

Why does Aspirin help decrease platelet aggregation?

A

COX1 and COX2 Inhibition leads to decreased Thromboxane A2.

27
Q

Management of a STEMI

A

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI=Cath Lab) capable hospital: <90m

Non-PCI: If PCI is <120m away, transfer or Thrombolytics <30m then transfer

28
Q

Inferior MI’s are usually due to what artery occlusion?

A

LCx or RCA

29
Q

Lateral MI artery occlusion

A

LCx or branch of LAD

30
Q

Anterior MI artery occlusion

A

LAD

31
Q

Dressler Syndrome

A

Post MI autoimmune reaction that causes pericarditis

32
Q

Ddx of Acute MI should include what other 2 things?

A
  1. PE

2. Aortic Dissection

33
Q

Stanford Classification of Aortic Dissections

A

Type A: Involves the ascending aorta

Type B: No ascending Aorta

34
Q

Which stanford classification type of Aortic Dissections is the most common?

A

Type A

35
Q

What risk factors are associated with a young person having an aortic dissection?

A

CT disorders
Nose candy
Trauma

36
Q

3 ways an aortic dissection can occur

A
  1. Tear in the intima that creates a false lumen
  2. Intramural hematoma caused by rupture of vasa vasorum
  3. Athersclerotic plaque ulcerating through intima and causing a hematoma
37
Q

Classic presentation of an aortic dissection

A

Tearing pain that radiates to the back
Remember also on the Ddx is: MI, PE

Other findings: Tamponade, Horner Syndrome, Mesenteric Ischemia, Hemothorax, MI, Aortic Regurge (diastolic murmur)

38
Q

Most commonly used imaging method to diagnosis aortic dissection

A

CT Angiography

39
Q

Anti-impulse therapy for Aortic Dissection

A

IV-Beta blockers +/- Vasodilators to get BP <120 and HR<60

40
Q

Which Stanford classification of Aortic Dissection has a higher mortality rate?

A

Type A- surgical management needed
