Block 2 Lab And Review Flashcards
Acute arterial occlusion presents with what type of disease and includes what symptoms
Chronic ATH disease
ATH plaque on the aorta- could break
6 P’s
[Poik. And pulseless = PE findings]
1 emergent mgmt of Art Occlusive disease
CTANgio
Followed by intervention
What is a good intervention to use after CTA in Art Occlusive Dsiease ACUTELY
Interv. Rad- Non invasive
Percutaneous Thromboectomy - balloon tug out proximal
Percutaneous POBA
Amputation if fail to intervene within 10H
What is a good intervention to use after CTA in Art Occlusive Dsiease CHRONIC
Reverse underlying cause.
What are the potential origin possibilities for acute arterial occlusion
Aortic- Atherosclerotic thromboembolic
Cardiac - LA myxoma , LA A Fib Thrombus
Venus - Paradoxical DVT thromboembolic cardiac shunt
What condition would predispose you to LV thrombus
Large Anterior MI
Best TXM for large ant MI w LV thrombus
Apixaban
Blood Thinner
Inf Endo TXM is commonly
ABX for bacterial infection
> 1 cm = surgery
No causes of Chronic PAD, echo is normal valvular vegetation’s = normal , shunt = normal , what is the most common cause of Paradoxical DVT
ATH with venous origin
Best imaging study for DVT
Doppler U/S
Paradoxical DVT is
Thromboemboli that comes from a DVT
People with a shunt that have venous thrombi
“Breaking off from a cardiac origin”
PAD is similar to what type of disease
CAD
Where is most common for PAD plaque to end up
Popliteal arteries
What is the ABI finding in PAD
Less than 0.9
Ominous sxs of CHRONIC PAD
Localized muscle fatigue
Rest Pain = ABI less than 0.4
Paresthesia weak erectile dysfunction
What is the imaging study of choice to eval DVT
Doppler U/S
Chronic Sxs of PAD
Diminished pulses Slow cap refill Hair Loss Hypertrophic nails Arterial bruits Pillow Wet vs Dry gangrene
Wet gangrene vs dry gangrene
Dry = black and rubs off
Wet = looks like a wound
What is the best way to map out intervention in PAD
Arterial duplex scanning
W/ invasive arteriography (peripheral)
Diagnosis of chronic PAD is made by
Sxs + Radiographic Evidence
Severe mgmt for PAD
ABI less than 0.4) (rest pain
Bypass graft surgery
POBA (plain old balloon angioplasty)
Percutaneous arterial stent
What method of intervention lasts longer
Prosthetic or Native
Native tissue
POBA can cause what with arterial sheering
Aortic Dissection
Most is the most common cause of PAD and TXM
ATH
Cilostazol
With an Aspirin = Anti-platelet therapy
With a Statin (HIS)
HIS
Atorvastatin 20-40 mg
Ruvustatin 40-80 mg
