Disorders Flashcards
Mc known cause of acute pericarditis
Coxackie
Kussmaul absent in CP or CT
CT Strength-(fluid
Y descent in CP and CT
Rapid Absent
Earliest ECHO sign of ct
E RV D C
Becks triad (CT)
Shock
Engorged neck veins
Muffled heart sounds
Earliest symptoms of CT CP
Dyspnoea. Swelling.
Broadbent sign
CP fibrous pericardium pulls AB downwards
Normal pericardial fluid
15-20
pEff- >200
Is E:A (early:atrial kick) normal in CP
Yes
Normal = >1
Relief of Acute pericarditis pain
Aggravation?
Leaning forwards
(Heart away from mediastinal pleura)
Supine
(Inc VR—- heart engorges—— pain)
Cp heart sound
Pericardial Knock
AP heart sound
Pericardial rub
Most specific ecg sign of AP
Downsloping of TP segment
SPODICK SIGN
Mcc MS
Rhd
Mcc MS (non rheumatic)
Lutembacher
ASD primum + MS
D/D MS
Atrial clot
Atrial myxoma
Cor triatum
LAE seen in
MS — Double density sign
VSD
Hoarseness of voice d/t LRLN compression d/t LAE
ORTNERS SYNDROME
Mc vein to rupture in Ms
Bronchial vein (not pulmonary vein)
Murmurs of MS (all)
1° = MDM
2° = TR (High pulmonary pressures cause destruction of pulmonary valve)
ECG MS
P mitrale (bifid)—- due to LAE
RAD— due to RVH
Rx Uncomplicated MS
Diuretics
ACE (prevent remodelling of heart)
Rx Complicated MS
Balloon Mitral valvotomy OR replacement
Severity of Ms criteria
S2-OS gap
Pulsatile Liver
Afib
Type of LVH in AR
Eccentric
Classic symptom of AR
Palpitation
Increased FOC
Pulses in AR
Bisferiens
Water Hammer
Bounding
Dancing carotids
Murmurs in AR
1° Early Diastolic
2° Austin Flint (MDM) - due to blood in LA
ESM- due to inc blood in LV
DUROZIEZ SIGN : Continuous murmur over FEMORAL ARTERY
Causes of AR
Valvular. Aortic root : marfan/syp
RHD (mc)
IE
Congenital
Type of LVH in AS
Concentric
Mcc of AS
Degeneration (mc)
Biscuspid valve
Rhd (rare)
Cardinal symptoms of AS (SAD)
Syncope (earliest)
Angina (lvh = inc demand)
Dyspnea (most dreaded)
Murmurs in AS
ESM with radiation to carotids
\+
With GALLAVERDIN PHENOMENON
(Radiation to apex)
Drugs C/I AS
Nitrates (dec afterload) - diastolic hypot
Diuretics (dec preload) - systolic hypot
Most common valvular HD a/w SCD
AS
Regurgitant blood volume for severe AR and MR
> 60ml
Competence of Mitral valve
Derive pathogenesis
Healthy leaflets (RHd=mcc)
Normal position (iatrogenic/dehiscence)
Papillary muscles (necrosed in MI)
Chordae tendinae (trauma/cpr/marfan)
Murmurs in MR
1° Early Systolic (Acute)
Pan systolic chronic (as atria enlarged)
2° MDM (dt more blood in left atrium)
LVS3 (same reason)
Rx Acute and Chronic MR
Emergency MR Rep. MV Repair>rep
MS criteria in pregnancy
URGENT valvotomy/replacement (mortality high)
Barlow’s Syndrome?
