What are the coronary artery disease causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Acute ischemia
Myocardial infarction
Ischemic cardiomyopathy with hibernation myocardium
What are the idiopathic causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy
Idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy
Peripartum
What are the pressure overload causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Hypertension
Aortic stenosis
What are the volume overload causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Mitral regurgitation
Aortic insufficiency
Anemia
Atrioventricular fistula
What are the toxin causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Ethanol
Cocaine
Doxorubicin (adrianmycin)
Methamphetamine
What are the metabolic- endocrine causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Thiamine deficiency Diabetes Hemochromatosis Thyrotoxicosis Obesity
What are the Infiltrative causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Amyloidosis
What are the inflammatory causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Viral myocarditis
What are the hereditary causes of CHF and cardiomyopathy?
Hypertrophic
dilated
What classification of heart failure is no limitation on physical acitivty, ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, palpatations, or dyspnea?
Class I (Mild)
What classification of heart failure is slight limitation on physical activity, comfortable at rest, but ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitations, and dyspnea?
Class II (Mild)
What classification of heart failure is marked limitation of physical activity, comfortable at rest, but less than ordinary activity causes fatigue, palpation, or dyspnea
Class III (moderate)
What classification of heart failure is unable to carry out any physical activity without discomfort. Symptoms of cardiac insufficiency at rest, if any physical activity is undertaken, discomfort is increased?
Class IV (Severe)
What are the precipitants of heart failure?
Dietary (sodium and fluid) indiscretion
Noncomplaince with medications
Development of cardiac arrhythmia
Anemia
Uncontrolled HTN
Superimposed medical illness (pneumonia, renal dysfunction)
New cardiac abnormality (acute ischemia, acute valvular insufficiency)
