29
Q

type of arrhythmia?

trmt?

A

a-fib

  • Irregularly irregular
  • Ø P waves in between irregularly spaced QRS complexes

At risk of: Atrial stasis, thromboembolic stroke

Trmt:

  • Rate control
  • Anti-coagulation
  • Pharmacological or electrical cardioversion
30
Q

type of arrhythmia?

trmt?

A

a-flutter

Rapid succession of identical back-to-back atrial depolarization waves

Trmt:

  • Class IA, IC, or III (slows down atrial contraction so that the waves can collide and cancel out, and the SA node can take over)
  • ß blockers or Ca channel blockres
  • catheter ablation
31
Q

type of arrhythmia?

A

v-fib

Ø identifiable waves

at risk for: death - fatal

trmt: CPR and defibrillation

32
Q

type of arrhythmia?

A

AV - 1st degree

PR interval is prolonged

33
Q

type of arrhythmia?

A

AV - 2nd deg block - mobitz I

Progressive lengthening of the PR interval until a beat is dropped (P wave not followed by a QRS complex)

34
Q

type of arrhythmia?

At risk for?

Treatment?

A

AV block - 2nd degree mobitz II

Dropped beats not preceded by a change in the length of the PR interval (2:1 block)

At risk for: progression to a 3rd degree block

Trmt: Pacemaker

35
Q

type of arrhythmia?

trmt?

A

AV block - 3rd deg

Atria and ventricles beat independently of one another (no relationship between P waves and QRS complexes; atrial rate >> ventricular rate)

Trmt: Pacemaker

36
Q

ventricular depolarization

phase 0

phase 1

phase 2

phase 3

phase 4

A

ventricular depolarization

phase 0 = rapid upstroke = VG Na open -> influx

phase 1 = VG K open -> efflux

phase 2 = plateau = VG Ca open -> influx (balances K efflux)

phase 3 = repolarization = more VG K open; VG Ca close

phase 4 = resting potential (due to high K permeability)

37
Q

SA depolarization

phase 0

phase 1

phase 2

phase 3

phase 4

A

phase 0 = upstroke = VG Ca open -> influx; VG Na inactivate

phase 1 = does not exist

phase 2 = does not exist

phase 3 = repolarziation = VG K open, VG Ca close

phase 4 = If Na open -> Na conductance increases = determines HR

38

did you HEAR about the Nielsen Ratings for Jekell & hyde?

48
Q

3 holosystolic heart mumurs

what would accentuate these mumurs?

A
  • TR - increase in intensity during inspiration (more VR to R heart)
  • MR - increase in tensity with squatting/handgrip (more fluid remains in LV)
  • VSD (more fluid remains in LV)
49
Q

type of murmur heard with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

A

almost always associated w/ mitral regurg 2˚ to impaired mitral valve closure, therefore one would hear a systolic mumur

50
Q

diastolic mumur best heard at the R sternal border is indicative of…

diastolic mumur best heard at the L sternal border is indicative of…

A

both are aortic regurgitation

R = due to aortic root dilation

L = bicuspid aortic valve?? not sure..but it is a common site to be heard

51
Q
A
52
Q

delta wave

A

Woff-Parkinson White Syndrome

caused by an abnormal fast accessory conduction pathway from A -> V, thereby passing the pace-determining step (AV node)

ventricles begin to depolarize earlier -> delta wave w/ shortened PR interval on ECG

may result in a reentry circuit -> supraventricular tachycardia
