Q

With Left sided Hypertensive Disease, describe what can be seen with the diastolic and systolic dysfunctions

A

Diastolic dysfunction - atrial enlargement/fibrillation
= Thromboembolism risk
Systolic dysfunction - increased oxygen requirement

Q

Describe how Right sided Hypertensive Disease (cor pulmonale) arises

A
  • Vasoconstriction in the lungs
  • Increased Pulmonary A. Pressure
  • Increased RV pressure

21
Q

Describe how Rheumatic Fever arises

A
  • Group A Streptococcus Pharyngitis
  • Antibodies to M streptococcal protein
  • Reactive to self antigens in body
    = Fever, large joints, subcutaneous nodules, erythema marginatum, syndenham chorea and heart disease
22
Q

What antibodies will be (+) with Rheumatic fever?

A

DNase B

Streptolysin B

23
Q

Rheumatic Heart Disease affects which valves in order from most often to least often?

A

MAT

  • Mitral
  • Aortic
  • Tricuspid
24

Findings of Acute Rheumatic Heart Disease?

A
  • Peri/Myo/Endo (pan) - carditis
  • Verrucae formation
  • MacCallum Plaques
25
Q

Findings of Chronic Rheumatic Heart Disease?

A
  • Valvular leaflet thickening

- Valvular stenosis

26
Q

Infective Endocarditis usually occurs where and is of what origin?

A
  • BACTERIAL

- - usually occurs on abnormal or prosthetic heart valves

27
Q

Acute Infective Endocarditis symptoms

A

Rapid fever, chills and weakness

28
Q

What bacteria usually causes Acute Infective Endocarditis?

A

Staph. Aureus

29
Q

With IV drug use, where will the infective endocarditis be and what bacteria?

A

Right sided

- Staph. Aureus

30
Q

Subacute Infective Endocarditis Symptoms?

A

Low grade fever and fatigue

31
Q

What bacteria may cause Subacute Infective Endocarditis especially on prosthetic heart valves?

A

Staph. Epidermidis

32
Q

What bacteria may cause Subacute Infective Endocarditis, especially after dental procedures?

34
Q

What other manifestations can be seen with Infective Endocarditis? (4)

A

Subungual splinter hemorrhages

36
Q

Symptoms of NONbacterial Thrombotic Endocarditis?

A

Asymptomatic –> Valvular thrombi

37
Q

How does Carcinoid Heart Disease arise?

A
  • Carcinoid tumors secrete serotonin

- Plaque-like endocardial and valve thickening

38
