Question 16

Patient with swollen legs

Answer 16

Lymphedema - Filariasis

Question 17

22 y.o male cold Sx malaise and extreme fatigue. b/l leg swelling and SOB, gain 25 Lb, rash on back. no PMH, mom has lupus
BP100/50 HR 135 pulse 89
O2 RA 90%
JVD, PMI displaced, 2/6 systolic murmur tachy
dec lung sounds and b/l basilar crackles
3+ pitting edema b/l, erythematoud macular papular rash
Why is there a difference between HR and pulse (pulse deficit)?

Answer 17

HR too fast for ventricle to fill so cannot propel wave to extremities

what could cause 2/6 systolic murmur

Answer 18

infectious myocarditis dilating the heart
stretches annulus around valve
mitral regurg

systemic viral infection
could be rheumatic fever
lupus
