CVS2 Flashcards
Most common condition associated with Atrial fibrillation
hypertensive heart disease
Most common supraventricular arrythmia:
most common cardiac arrhythmia:
AF
AF
Moderate intensity statin therapy:
High intensity statin therapy:
RAS 5-10, 10-20, 20-40
High intensity = RASx4 → 20-40, 40-80 in patients with established ASCVD or with an ASCVD 10 year risk ≥20
Sever aortic stenosis criteria
4—-40—-1
- Aortic jet velocity ≥4 m/s or
- Mean transvalvular pressure gradient ≥40mmHg
- Valve area usually ≤1cm^2
Holt oram (Heart hand) syndrome
ASD + upper limb defects
Hyperkalemia ECG changes sequence:
peaked T wave → loss of P wave → wide QRS complex →sine wave patters → asystole
Posterior wall MI ecg changes and arteries involved
ST depression in V1-V3
ST elevation in leads I and aVL (LCX)
ST segment depression in leads I and aVL (RCA)
Drug of choice in jarvell Lange Nielsen syndrome.
Why?
Beta blocker except sotalol
It blunts the exertional heart rate and shorten QT interval.
Acute limb ischemia after MI. Next investigation is
Transthoracic echocardiogram with contrast
Patient with exertional dyspnea and symptoms of heart failure, ST segment elevations and deep Q waves + a history of MI with delayed intervention or revascularization:
Ventricular aneurysm
