27
Q

What Is jugular venous pressure

A

The vertical height from the sternal angle to the zone of transition of distended and collapsed internal jugular veins. Normally 4-5 cm

28
Q

Why do we use ijv for jvp

A

. Direct continuation of right atrium
. No valves
. Doesn’t go through muscular plane
. Right is more straighter than left
. Located between two heads of sternocleidomastoid

29
Q

Causes of elevated jvp

A

Innominate vein thrombosis
Pleural effusion
COPD
Cardiac tamponade
Constrictive pericarditis
TS
Tr
Ascites
Pregnancy

30
Q

Causes of fall in jvp

A

Hypovolemia
Shock
Addisons

31
Q

Waves in jvp

A

A wave- right atrial contraction
C wave- tricuspid valve ascends carotid artery impact
X descent- right atrial relaxation
V wave- venous filling into atrium
Y descent- tricuspid valve opens atrial emptying

41
Q

Kussmals sign

A

During inspiration,mean jvp falls, due to inability of the heart to accommodate increased venous return caused by negative intra pleural pressure
Seen in,

Q

What is clubbing

A

Selective bulbous enlargement of distal portion of the distal phalanx due to proliferation of connective tissue

52
