Cardio exam 3 Flashcards
% blockage with angina and unstable angina
UA-90%
A-75%
Post MI 4-12hr
mottling/necrosis/hemorrhage
Post MI 12-24hr
Red/blue mottling
pyknosis
Post MI 1-3 days
Yellow/tan center
neutrophils
loss of striations/nuclei
Post MI 3-7 days
Phyagocytosis (macrophages), decreasing neutrophils
myofiber disintegration
hyperemic border
Post MI 7-10 days
Red/tan margin with yellow center
early granulation tissue
Post MI 10-14 days
Red/gray border
granulation tissue
neovascularization + collagen
Post MI 2-8 wks
scar
collagen
Ankle/brachial index
Ankle systolic (higher of the two)/brachial (higher of two)
For peripheral arterial disease
When to tx carotid stenosis
symptomatic and over 50% occluded or
asymptomatic and over 80% occluded
3 Criteria for MI dx on EKG
acute ST elevation
significant Q waves
deep, symmetrical inverted T waves
1st sign of STEMI on EKG
T waves>10mm in precordials
T waves>5mm in limb leads
Most common MI cause
spontaneous thrombus
Criteria to use thrombolytics
<6hr since onset (most beneficial)
ST elevation over 1mm
new LBBB
ST depression on V1/V2 with prominent R waves
Contraindications for thrombolytics
Anything with stroke/ICP
Aortic dissection
Cause of ischemia in UA and NSTEMI
vasospasm (not a full occlusion)
Use of CPK cardiac marker
detectable for 2-4 days
good to detect reinfarct
Absolute contraindications for thrombolytics
UA and NSTEMI and aortic dissection
Long term med tx to avoid with MI
NSAIDS
Risks of percutaneous intervention and what would help each
hematoma-stop anticoagulants
pseudoaneurysm- thrombin
acute renal failure-decrease contrast use
embolization- decrease cath manipulation
Emergency tx for ruptured AAA
avoid over fluid resucitation
surgery ASAP
Aortic dissection vs AAA tx
AAA do not need confirmation on radiograph
AD needs confirmation before surgery
Emergency tx for ACS
MONA B
morphine, O2, nitrates, aspirin, Beta blockers
Use of fibrinolytic therapy
Less than 30 minutes since onset
less than 75 y/o
PCI therapy timeframe
<90 min from onset
1st manifestion of thrombophlebitis
pulmonary embolism
Lymphangitis sx
painful cutaneous red streaks
Lymphedema types
I-hereditary (milroy disease)
II-obstructive
Cavernous hemangioma assc and risk
von Hippel Lindau disease
risk of rupture (stroke)
Cystic hygroma/cavernous lymphangioma
on neck/axilla of children
can cause deformities
Glomus tumor
very painful under the nails
Port Wine Stain feature and assc
CN V distribution
Sturg-Weber syndrome
