Ex1 L2 Flashcards
Ion most responsible for resting membrane potential
Potassium
What does not occur in SA node?
Rapid depolarization
Largest perfusion to coronaries
During diastole
Increased demand of O2 from
Increased:
HR, afterload, contractility
Simple form - angina pectoris
Mismatch of O2 supply & demand
Hearts way of compensating a mismatch in supply/demand of O2
Decreased HR + contractility
Angina pectoris risk factors
Males Increasing age HTN HL Smoker DM Obesity
Stable angina
Chest pain not changing for 2+ months
Unstable angina
Pain at rest, new onset, or increase in severity/frequency
Angina - diagnosis
ECG
Non-invasive or invasive imaging
Best information of coronary arteries
Coronary angiography
Revascularization
CABG or PCI +/- stents for failed medical management
LMCA occlusion > 50%
Significant CAD + EF 40%
Tx STEMI
MONA Beta Blockers Reperfusion therapy PCI CABG
Beta blockers should be avoided in
HF
Low CO or cardiogenic shock
Heart block
Reperfusion therapy should occur
30-60 minutes from arrival
**w/in 12h of onset
PCI should occur within
90 minutes of arrival
After angioplasty (w/o stenting) - time to wait for elective surgery
2-4 weeks
After bare metal stent placement - time to wait for elective surgery
At least 30 days
12 weeks preferable
Reperfusion therapy
TPA alteplase etc.
Reperfusion therapy risk
History of bleeding or hemorrhagic stroke — careful
After CABG- time to wait for elective surgery
At least 6w
Prefer - 12 w
After DES placement - time to wait for elective surgery
At least 12 months
Periop monitoring - stent pts
Must have interventional cardiologist on staff/available
*STAT consult for angina
Anesthesia techniques for stent pt
Neuraxial techniques not prudent unless anticoagulants held for 5-10 days prior
DES < 12 months + dual antiplatelet therapy
**Consult cardiology
Emergency surgery is 3.5x risk adverse events
Major risk of adverse cardiac events if d/c antiplatelet therapy + non cardiac surgery
UA/NSTEMI diagnosis
3 principal presentations:
- Angina at rest ( > 20 min)
- chronic angina pectoris that is more easily provoked
- New-onset angina (severe)
* often presents with arrhythmias
