cardiovascular Flashcards
AV valves
tricuspid and mitral
S1 Atria Ventria valves are
closed
S2 semilur valves
pulmonic and
S3 leading abnormal heart sound in
heart failure, normal in pregnancy kentucky
S4 tennesse
stiff ventricular wall (MI, LVent hypertrohy) uncontrolled HTN
Mitral stenosis
loud S1 murmur, low pitched a
Aortic stenosis radiates to neck
systolic blowing
Acute heart faillure is
L sided
chronic heart failure is
R sided
left failure look for problems in the
Lungs
Order of R heart failure
JVD-hepatosplnomeegaly- peripheral edema
outpatient managment of heart failure
na and water restriction
rest and activity balance
weight reduction
pharma management of heart failure
ace inhibitors (prils) and diuretics
manageent of acute plum edema
O2
morphine and lasix 40 repete q20 or 30
definition of HTN
sustained elevation of sys BP >140 or diastolic BP >90
3times on two different occasions
primary HTN
95% onset usually less than the age of 55
secondary HTN
classic presentations- estrogen use, renal disease, pregnancy, endocrine disorders RENAL ARTERY STENOSIS
HTN exacerbates
smoking, oeisity, too much booze, nsaids
suboccipital HA HTN
HTN gets better over the course of the day
S and S of HT
often silent EPISTAXIS elevatedBP dizzy light headed S4related to left ventricular hypertrophy
HTN labs and diagnostic
primary HTN is a diagnosis of exclusion
Normal BP
less than 120 and less than 80
pre hypertension
