at what age are Men with nonanginal chest pain at intermediate risk for CAD

23
Q

If patient has intermediate risk for CAD what testing should be done

A

EKG norma- stress test

EKG abnormal- stress test with possible imagin augmentation, treatment based on findings

24
Q

If patient is at high risk for CAD what testing is done

A

medical therapy followed by stress test and or coronary angiography

25
Wht is typical chest pain
central visceral and exertional chest pain
26
what is atypical chest pain criteria
have 2 types of chest pain (central, visceral, exertional)
27
What are risk factors for unstable angina
``` >65 y/o >3 traditional cardiac risk factors documented CAD with >50% stenosis ST segment abnormalities >2 anginal episodes in last 24 hours used aspirin in last week elevated cardiac enzymes ```
28
how do you Dx unstable angina
new onset chest pain crescendo pattern not relieved by NTG
29
what is low risk for unstable angina and NSTEMI
0-2 risk factors. medical therapy and stress test to evaluate therapy if stress test abnomral- angiography
30
what is intermediate risk for unstable angina and NSTEMI, as well as treatment
3-4 risk factors, medical therapy and early angiography
31
what is high risk for unstable angina and NSTEMI, as well as treatment
5-7 risk factors, medical therapy and early angiography
32
Widened mediastinum on CXR is indicative of what
aortic dissection
33
what are signs of pericarditis
recent viral illness, pleuritic chest pain, paradoxical pulses
34
what are signs of PE
inactivity, new onset A fib
35
what are signs of CHF
SOB and orthopnea
36
What is the most significant determining factor for outcome STEMI
door to balloon time <90 minutes
37
what are absolute contraindications for thrombolytic therapy
intracranial hemorrhage ischemic CVA in last 3 mo facial trauma in last 3 mo bleeding diathesis
38
what are relative contraindications to thrombolytic therapy
``` chronic, severe HTN severe uncontrolled HTN ischemic CVA >3 mo known intracranial path dementia internal bleeding within last 4 wks pregnancy peptic ulcer disease anticoagulant use ```
39
what other syndromes increase death risk of STEMI in patients
new LBBB, anterior wall MI, cardiogenic shock, ventricular arrhythmias, advanced age >75 y/o
40
what are the early complications of MI thrombolytics
bleeding | reperfusion arrhythmias
41
What are the early complications with IWMI
bradycardia and AV block, AV nodal perfusion by right coronary artery right ventricular infarction, inferior wall hypotension for volume depletion
42
what are the early complications with aWMI
pump failure and CHF in large area infarcts, cardiogenic shock intra-aortic balloon pump syncrhonous counterpulsion
43
What are the late complications with MI
``` cardiogenic shock VSD papillary muscle rupture and MR free wall rupture L ventricular thrombus ```
44
What is cardiogenic shock
pump faction loss and thought to have inflammatory part
45
how is VSD detected
