cardio 12 Flashcards
1
Q
Factor indicate presence of alcoolic cardiomyophaty?
A
Dilated ventricles Heavy and long duration of alcohl consuption Macrocytic anemia AST>ALT ratio 2:1 Thrombocytopnia
2
Q
Diagnosis?
A
Dilated ventricles in echo
Exclusion of other cause
3
Q
Management?
A
Alcohol exclusion: reverse the condition
4
Q
Tachycardia mediated cardiomyopathy presentation?
A
HF symptom chronic Tachycardia(If atrial should have a rapid ventricular response)
5
Q
Risk factor?
A
SVT(Afib,AFlu,AVRT,atrial/junctional tachycardia) with rapid ventricular responce
VTAC
6
Q
pathophysiology?
A
chronic tachycardia–LV structural change–LV systolic dysfunction
7
Q
What is the LV structural change?
A
LV dilatation
LV hypokinesis
8
Q
Management?
A
aggressive rate and rhythm control
9
Q
atypical future of PE(Other than dyspnia,tachycardia and tachypnea),
A
Plural efusion(due to infn) Elevated troponin(Due to inducible ischemia) Chest pain exacerbated during inspiration
10
Q
Aproch ?
A
Based on walls
High likelely–CT angiography
Less likeley:D-Dimer and if <500 exclude PE
11
Q
ECG future?
A
Large S wave in lead I
Large Q wave in lead III
Inverted T wave in Lead II
