20
Q

JVP, edema, hepatomegaly, ascites

A

21
Q

kussmauls sign

A

deep breath causes increased JVD

seen in constrictive pericarditis

22
Q

M or W on JVP tracing

A

constrictive pericarditis

23
Q

square root sign

A

constrictive pericarditis

24
Q

diastolic pericardial knock

A

constrictive pericarditis

25
Q

causes of constrictive pericarditis

A
TB
radiation
cardiac surgery
viruses
trauma
26
Q

restrictive cardiomyopathies and LV diastolic dysfunction

A

simulate constrictive pericarditis

27
Q

constrictive pericarditis vs. restrictive cardiomyopathy

A

constrictive - no change in BNP

restrictive - elevated BNP

need to do cath

  • LV end diastolic pressure
  • equal - constrictive
  • unequal - restrictive

pulmonary pressure high - restrictive
