GRUSDEM-CARDIO Flashcards
OUTERMOST LAYER OF THE HEART
Pericardium
innermost Layer of the Heart
Endocardium
middle Layer of the Heart
Myocardium
2 Heart Valves
Atrioventricular Valve and Semilunar Valve
Heart Valve can be seen in ATrium and Ventricle
atrioventricular valve
Heart valve attached to Great vessel
Semilunar Valve
valve between right atrium and right ventricle
tricuspid
valve between left atrium and Left ventricle
mitral/ bicuspid
valve located in the opening of Pulmonary trunk
pulmonary semilunar valve
valve located in the opening of aorta
aortic semilunar valve
Heart sounds during closure of AV valve
LUBB
Heart sounds due to closure of semilunar valve
Dubb
Abnormal heart sounds: S3- heard after s2 (related to____)
Heart failure
Abnormal heart sounds: S4- heard after s2 (related to____)

Ecg reading With rhythm With p wave Qrs complex T wave Normal hr pr interval and qrs complex
Normal sinus rhythm
Ecg reading With rhythm With p wave, qrs complex, t wave HR is >100bpm
Sinus tachycardia
Ecg reading Sinus tachycardia independent intervention:
Carotid massage
Ecg reading Sinus tachycardia DOC
Betablocker (-olol) Calcium channel blocker (-dipine)
Ecg reading With rhythm With Pwave, Qrs complex t-wave HR is <60 (Normal for athelete/elderly)
Sinus bradycardia
Ecg reading Sinus bradycardia DOC
Atropine sulfate
Ecg reading Atrial dysrhythmias With rhythm P wave appears saw tooth
Atrial flutter
Ecg reading Atrial dysrhythmias No rhythm No p wave
Atrial fibrillation
Ecg reading Atrial dysrhythmias Atrial fibrilation is at risk in _______
Clot formation
Ecg reading Atrial dysrhythmias Atrial fibrillation DOC: ●Classification= generic name ●classification ●classification ●classification
●Sodium channel blocker= procainamide and quinidine ●anticoagulant ●antiplatelet ●thrombolytic
Ecg reading Atrial dysrhythmias Atrial fibrillation intervention:
Do cardioversion
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias with rhythm no P wave qrs complex is wide and bizarre
ventricular tachycardia
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias ventricular tachycardia DOC
Lidocaine Magnesium Sulfate
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias ventricular tachycardia *check for pulse: unstable= no pulse
unstable= cardioversion no pulse = defibrillation
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias NO rhythm tracing is disorganized and chaotic no concrete waves *patient is pulseless
ventricular fibrillation
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias ventricular fibrillation *patient pulseless treatment:
D - Defribrillation E - Epinephrine A - amiodarone L - lidocaine M - magnesium sulfate
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias NO p wave, automatic QRS complex 6 or more pvc in 1minute indicate pending cardiac arrest
premature ventricular contraction
ECG reading premature ventricular contraction DOC *classification *drug
sodium channel blocker Lidocaine
ECG reading ventricular dysrhythmias premature ventricular contraction Priority intervention 1. 2. refer physician when: * *
Priority intervention 1. 02 therapy 2. refer physician when: *6pvc in a Minute *3pvc in a Row
ECG reading AV Block with rhythm consistent increase PR interval
first degree AV block
