Chapters 26 & 27 (NO shock) Flashcards
the large
aorta
medium
coronary
small
ulcers
pathology occurs by
impairment of blood flow
ischemia
reduction in flow insufficient to meet oxygen demands of tissues
injury
reversible
infarction
irreversible with necrosis
what has an active role in controlling vascular function
endothelium
dysfunctional cells produce
inflammatory cytokines
endothelial dysfunction
endothelial dysfunction describes potentially reversible changes in endothelial function that occur in response to environmental stimuli
endothelial dysfunction: products that cause inflammation
cytokines, bacteria, viruses, hemodynamic stresses, lipid products, hypoxia
dyslipidemia is a major cause of
atherosclerosis
dyslipidemia is a imblance of
lipid components (triglycerides, phospholipids and cholesterol)
5 types of lipoproteins but we only will be focusing on 2, what are they
LDL and HDL
where is the synthesis of lipoproteins
small intestine and liver
primary dyslipidemia
may have genetic basis, defective synthesis of apoproteins may occur, defective or lack of lipid receptors
familial hypercholesterolemia is what kind of dyslipidemia
primary
familial hypercholesterolemia ___ receptor is deficient of defective, autosomal _________ disorder. cholesterol levels can be as high as 1000
LDL, dominant
secondary dyslipidemia
dietary, obesity, metabolic changes associated with DMT2
hypercholesterolemia
increase in serum cholesterol levels
screening for hypercholesterolemia is appropriate for children as young as two who have
a family history of heart disease or high cholesterol
LDL is good or bad
bad, LOSER CHOLESTEROL
LDL is the main carrier for
cholesterol
LDL receptors predominantly located in
hepatocytes
_______ plays critical role in metabolism of LDL
liver
LDL removal by scavenger cells such as
monocytes and macrophages
uptake of LDL by macrophages in the arterial wall can result in accumulation of
insoluble cholesterol esters, foam cells, and atherosclerosis
HDL
good, HAPPY CHOLESTEROL
inverse relation between HDL and development of
atherosclerosis
HDL facilitates in the clearance of cholesterol from atheromatous plaques and transports it back to the
liver
HDL is responsible for
reverse cholesterol transport (returns excess cholesterol from tissues to liver)
HDL inhibits uptake of _____ into arterial wall
LDL
what increases HDL
regular exercise and moderate alcohol consumption
what are associated with decreased levels of HDL
smoking and diabetes
major risk factor for atherosclerosis is
hypercholesterolemia and elevations of LDL
non modifiable risk factors for atherosclerosis is
age, gender, genetic history, family of premature CAD in a first degree relative
nontraditional risk for atherosclerosis is
elevated serum C reactive protein
inflammation marked by
elevated C reactive protein
C reactive protein is
non specific
nontraditional risk factors for coronary artery disease
c reactive protein, microbiome, medications, infection, airpolution
modifiable risk factors for coronary artery disease
dislipidemia, hypertension, cigarette smoking, diabetes, obesity
one pack of cigarette smoking a day _____ endothelial damage
doubles
DM+hypertension+dyslipidemia= increases risk
20 times
mechanisms for development of coronary artery disease
endothelial injury, fatty streak present in first year of life, fibrous atheromatous plaque, complicated lesion
endothelial injury causes a migration of inflammatory cells which leads to ______ accumulation and smooth muscle ________ and ______ development
lipid, proliferation, plaque
fatty streak
macrophages and smooth muscle cells distended with lipid to form foam cells
fibrous atheromatous plaque
basic lesion accumulation of lipids, proliferation, scar tissue and calcification
complicated lesion
hemorrhage, ulceration and scar tissue deposits with thrombosis
vaculitides is a group of vascular disorders that cause ___________ injury and ________ of the blood vessel wall
inflammatory, necrossi
vasculitides when in the large vessel is called
giant cell (temporal) arteritis
giant cell (temporal) arteritis (AKA vasculitides) mainly affects arteries of the ______, this is a disease of the _______, symptoms may include:
inflammation of ophthalmic artery involvement can cause ______
head, elderly, stiffness of shoulder and headache and tenderness of temporal artery, blindness
peripheral arterial disease is systemic atherosclerosis distal to the
arch of the aorta
peripheral arterial strongest risk factors
smoking and DM
peripheral arterial when you finally get symptoms you are already at __% narrowing
50
peripheral arterial symptom will include
intermitten claduication or pain with walking in the calf
atrophic changes and thinning of the skin and sub q
ischemic pain at rest
ulceration and gangrene will develop
why will you get pain in calf with peripheral arterial
because the gastrocnemius has the highest oxygen consumption of any muscle group in leg during walking
it is important in peripheral arterial to look at what body part
feet
acute arterial thrombus formation
activation of the coagulation cascade, intimal irritation and roughening, inflammation, trauma, infection, low BP, obstructions
the 7 P’s of acute arterial embolism
pistol shot (acute onset)
pallor
polar
pulselessness
pain
paresthesia
paralysis
arterial disease of extremities peripheral vascular disorders
thromobangitis obliterans (Buerger’s Disease), Raynaud’s disease
Buerger’s Disease is ______ of medium arteries, usually affects ____, this is very ________
vaculitis, men, inflammed
Raynaud’s disease is caused by intense _______ of arteries and arterioles in ______, this is seen in _______, appear pale looking
vasospasm, fingers, women
aneurysm is a localized _______ of blood vessle
dilatation
aneurysm tension wall diameter increases with increasing size and may lead to
rupture
aortic aneurysm is more frequent in men who are __________, most are _______
hypertensive, asymptomatic
aortic dissection is acute and
life threatening
aortic dissection is the hemorrhage into the vessel wall with
longitudinal tearing or separation of the vessel wall to form a blood filled channel
aortic dissection is common with
Marfans syndrome
BP is calculated how
cardiac output X peripheral vascular resistance
pulse pressure
difference between systolic and diastolic
systolic is normally the smaller or larger number
larger
diastolic is normally the smaller or larger number
smaller
