CAD reduced Flashcards

1
Q

Most perioperative MIs occur within ____________. what are the typical diagnosis patterns

A

24- 48hours

​Typical diagnosis patterns not on slides!

  1. Mostly postoperative
  2. Mostly N-STEMI and diagnosed with EKG and cardiac biomarkers
  3. they are usually preceeded by tachycardia and ST depression
    • tachycardia increases O2 consumption→ with CAD the coronaries inability to dialate leads to the MI

Q

What physiologic changes post-op that lead to a pro-thrombotic state and plaque rupture

(NOT IN LECTURE)

A
  1. increased blood viscosity
  2. ∆s in catecholamine levels
  3. ∆s in cortisol levels
  4. ∆s in endogenous tissue plasminogen activator levels
  5. ∆s in plasminogen activator inhibitor levels.

(post op autopsies have shown significant numbers of deths via trhombus in a coronary artery that is NOT critically stenosed→even MORE reason to make sure to blunt the stress response!)

Q

Compare Stable, Unstable and Prinmental Angina

A

Stable:

  • no ∆ in frequency or duration in the last 60 days
  • associated with a fixed narrowing (usually 75%+)
  • relieved by rest or NTG

Unstable:

  • becoming more frequent, longer, or more severe
  • occuring at rest or with less exertion;
  • associated with an unstable plaque/thrombosis;
  • signals impending MI

Q

Ischemic heart disease drug management and effects:

A
  1. ß-Blockers-
    • decreases HR and contractility
  2. Ca++ Channel Blockers
    • ​dilates coronaries, decreases contractility, decreases afterload
  3. ACE inhibitors
    • ​improve contractility via decreased afterload
  4. Nitrates
    • ​dilates coronaries and collaterals, decreases preload (vasodilation) and afterload (decreases periperal vascular resistance)
  5. Antiplatelets-
    • reduce potential for thrombosis

Q

What is myocardial Infarction?

A
  1. Necrosis caused by ischemia
  2. In the heart, begins to occur within 20-30 minutes of ischemia onset
  3. Typically starts in the subendocardium
  4. Full infarct size usually occurs in 3-6 hours
  5. Size depends on proximity of lesion and collateral circulation

Q

What decreases Myocardial O2 SUPPLY and should be avoided/prevented/promtly treated in patients with CAD?

A
  1. **Tachycardia** (sympathetic stimulation)
  2. Hypotension (decreases coronary blood fow)
  3. Vasoconstriction
  4. disruptions in O2 carrying capacity
    1. acid/base (hypocapnea from hyperventilation will also cause coronary vasoconstiction)
    2. anemia
    3. hypoxia
  5. Blood Viscosity
  6. Arterial patency
  7. Coronary spasm

  2. Increased contractility (drugs)
  3. Increased preload (fluids)
  4. Increased afterload (drugs)

Q

regoional vs general anesthesia in patients with Ischemic heart disease/CAD

A
  1. Regional
    • sympathectomy will likely lead to hypotension
    • treat with phenylephrine.
    • Use ephedrine if bradycardia also present.
  2. General
    • Maintain O2 supply/demand balance
    • DO NOT allow for sustained periods of hypo/hypertension or tachycardia.

Q

Monitoring for ischemia with an EKG

  • EKG indicators of ischemia?
  • what can individual leads tell us?
  • What leads are best?
A
  1. EKG - Ischemia is manifested by
    • ST elevation or depression (+/- 1 mm MUST be detected)
    • T-wave changes (may have inverted T waves from an old MI and ischemia a is manifested as T waves that are right-side-up)
    • R-wave changes
  2. Leads II, III and aVF reflect: Right coronary artery
    • ​​supplies:
      • Right atrium​ and right ventricle
      • Inferior aspect of left ventricle
      • SA node and AV node
  3. Leads V3-V5 reflect: Left anterior descening
    • supplies: Anterolateral aspect of left ventricle
  4. Leads I and aVL reflect: Left circumflex artery
    • supplies: Lateral aspect of left ventricle
  5. ​​​​​​Best lead combos (II and aV5) or (II, V4, V5) or (V3, V4, V5)

(Slide says we can also use TEE and PA catheters)

Q

Ischemic heart disease Induction anesthesia considerations

A

The goal is to minimixe hemodynamic changes

  1. Decrease the duration of laryngoscopy
  2. Minimize SNS response
    • USE: gas, lidocaine, Propofol, opioids esmolol
    • Ketamine is definately a NO!!
  3. For severe LV dysfunction
    • May not tolerate anesthesia induced myocardial depression
    • USE: high opioid technique and Etomidate!

Q

Ischemic heart disease anesthetic mainitinence GOALS

A
  1. **Avoid tachycardia** and keep in a NSR
  2. Normal Preload
  3. Normal Afterload
  4. Decrease Contractility (if LVF normal)
  5. MVO2 - much easier to control demand, attenuate SNS outflow

​(NOT ON powerpoint)

  1. **Avoid tachycardia** and keep in a NSR
    • pretreat for anything that will elicit a sympathetic resopnse (DVL, incision)
    • ß-blocker - esmolol
    • Opioids
  2. Normal Preload
    • do not want to rapidly increase preload, it will increases myocardial demand - steeady smooth fluid balance (consider phenylephrine or dobutamine)
  3. Normal Afterload
    • ​​too low = decreased coronary profusion pressure (decreases supply)
    • too high = myocardial contractility must increase to overcome (increases demand) (vasodilate IAs or NTG)
  4. Decrease Contractility (if LVF normal)
    • this will decrease the myocardial O2 demand
    • ß-blockers
    • Gas
  5. Maintain NSR if possible
  6. MVO2 - much easier to control demand, attenuate SNS outflow as needed (avoid sympathomimetics)
