44
Q

splitting occurs in what sound

A

S2 - closure of aortic and pulmonic valves

45
Q

normal splitting

A

inspiration causes drop in pressure, increase venous return, increase RV filling and stroke volume, increased RV ejection time = delayed closure of pulmonic valve

also increased capacity of pulmonary circulation

46
Q

wide splitting

A

delay in RV emptying - pulmonic stenosis or RBBB

47
Q

fixed splitting

A

meaning it doesnt change with breathing - due to ASD because of higher volume and no effect on breathing

48
Q

  • MVP: earlier click
52
Q

rapid squatting bedside maneuver

64
Q

facts about mitral stenosis

A
  • pressure difference (higher in LA)
  • late complication of rheumatic fever
  • can be in chronic MS
65
Q

myocardial action potential

A
  1. Na channels open - rapid upstroke
  2. Na channel inactivated, K open - initial repolarization
  3. Ca influx balances K efflux - plateau
  4. K efflux, closure of Ca - rapid repolarization
  5. high K permeability - resting
66
Q

differences in mycardial physiology

A
  • action potential plateau due to Ca influx
  • contraction requires Ca influx to induce Ca release from SR
  • electrical coupling by gap junctions
67
Q

pacemaker action potential

A
  1. opening of Ca channels, fast Na channels are inactivated resulting in slower polarization
  2. absent
  3. absent
  4. inactivation of Ca, activation of K (K efflux)
  5. slow depolarization due to funny current (slope determines HR)
68
Q

effect of sympathetics on funny current

A

increase likelihood that they are open, leading to increase in HR

69
