Cardio Physio Flashcards
What conditions can present with different BP in extremities?
CoA
Dissecting Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm
What mutation is seen in Brugada syndrome
5CN5A (sodium channel)
Apperance of Macrophages in MI
4-7 days
Paroxysmal, recurrent precodial or substernal chest pain, caused by transient myocardial ischemia which falls shor of infarction
Angina Pectoris
maintains cell to cell cohesion
intercalated disc
Sympathetic Pathway is mediated by what neurotransmitter?
Norepinephrine
Most common reason for pump failure?
myocardial hypertrophy usually sec to HPN
Excess of this ion cause the heart to be become dialated and flaccid
potassium same in sodium
Compare Cardiac vs Skeletal Muclses
Cardiac muscles: Striated intercalaeted disk, Gap junctions Involunatary automaticity/rythmicity More T tubules Less developed Sar. Retic Intra/Extra Calscium vs Intra only in skeletal More abundant Mitochondria Negative Fatigue tetanus
It is directly proportional to the viscosity of the blood
resistance
Cardiac-limb or ventriculoradial malformation
TBXS
Holt-Oram syndrome
Major determinants of Myocardial Oxygen demand
Rate
Tension
Contractility
4 cardinal features of TOF
Pulmonary stenosis
RVH
Overriding Aorta
VSD
Most important determinant in stroke
Pulse Pressure
CAD angina Equivalent
Symptoms of dyspnea, fatigue and faintness
Palliative mgt for TOF
Blalock-Taussig Shunt
MVP is associated with what diseases?
Elhers Denlos
Marfan’s
Murmur in PDA
Machinery Like
ECG in Brugada Syndrome
V1-V3 RBBB, ST Elevation
COD in BruSy
Vfib
Most common site of Coarctation of the Ao
Juxtaductal below the origin of the left Subclavian A.
Mosot Comon Cause of Diminished blood flow
Coronary Atherosclerosis
“myxomatous degeneration” on histology
MVP
found in the posterior wall of the right atrium with delay of impulse
AV node
Factors that influence contractility
Increased HR
Sympathetic stimulation
Cardiac glycosides
Parasympathetic stiumulation
Most common form of ASD
Ostium Secundum
Pentalogy of Fallot
+ASD or PDA
CAD relieved by rest and NTG
Stable angina
Where is the SA node located?
wall of the RA lateral to the SINUS VENARUM at the junction where the SVA enters the R atrium
Erb’s point
S2 heart sound
Late latency period of the parasympathetic pathway is due to rapid activation of what channel?
Potassium channels in cardiac cells
What phase is caused by inward Ca+ current drivein the memrane potental toward Ca+ equillibrium potental
Phase 0
Describes the distensibility of the blood vessels
Capacitance(compliance)
All 4 veins drain into the R atrium
TAPV
CHD caused by Rubella infected mother
PDA
“Mid Systolic Click”
MVP
Necrosis of the inner 1/3 or 1/2 of the ventricle
Subendocardiac Infarction
Blood flow that is streamlined
Laminar flow
Contuction velocity in atrial muscle
0.3 - 0.5
“Snowman appearance”
TAPVR
Tet spells mgt
O2 Admin
B blockers - Propanolol
Acute Plaque change and superimposed thrombosis
Transmural Infarction (STEMI)
MC site of Dissection of the Aorta
Ascending
Exagerated fall of 10mmHg or more in SBP in inspiration
pulsus paridoxus
It takes 5-20 seconds for the purkinhe fiver to emit its own impulses
Stokes-Adams syndrome
MC cardiac anomaly in Down’s Syndrome
Endocardial cushion defect
