cardio2 Flashcards
abdominal aorta gives rise to
rit and left renal arteries
rapid passive filling of ventricles is what heart sound
in diastole
S3
sudden cessation of filling as ventricle reaches its elastic limit
poorly developed coronary capillary netweork
HOCM
reentry of electrical impulses through accessory conduction pathwya
AVRT
shortened PR
widened QRS
slurred and broad initial upstroke of QRs: delta wave
WPW
ischemia causes ion pump failure causing accumulation of
na and ca
the increased intracellular solute conc draws free water into cell; causing cellular and mitochodnrial swelling
autopsy: rupturued cerebral aneurysm w extensive intacranial hemorrageh; associated with
coarctation of aorta; assoc w berry aneurysms
sudden onset of palpitaitons and rapid regular tachycardai
Paroxysmal supraventircular tachycardia: most often due to reentrant impulse traveling circularlry bw slowly and rapidly conducting segments of AV node. Use vagal maneuevers to slow conduction through AV node; prologn Av node refractory period; helpign to terminate reentrant tahcycardia
thrombus vs myxoma
thrombus: adhernet to cardiac endothelium
mobile mass in LA: characteristic of a myxoma
region weher frontal, temproal , parietal sphenoid bones meet
pterion
risk of lacerating what artery at pterion
middle meningeal artery
middle menigneal artery is a branch ofm
maxillary artery
first branch of internal carotid
ophthalmci artery
nasal mucosa supplied by
sphenopalatine artery which anastomoesse w ophthalmci and facil arteris within anterior part of nasla spetuM: kiesselbach’s plexus
failure of proliferation of endocardial cushiosn
VSD
failure of conotruncal setpation results in
truncus arteriossus
left ventircular leads in biventricular pacemakers course through coronary sinus, which resides in
atrioventriculoar groove on posterior aspect of heart
severe lvh what heart sound
S4
aortic rooot dilation causes what murmur
aortic regrurgitaion
VSD can be asymptomatic at birth and present later in two weeks. why?
decreasing PVR; allows for more L-R shunt; causing murmur accentuation
can present after a week of viral illness
cardiac tamponade
