IHD Flashcards
Mention each type and cause of ischemia
⬆️demand:⬆️hypertension
⬇️supply: hypotension / shock
⬇️oxygenation : pneumonia or CHF
⬇️oxygen carrying capacity:anemia
Define angina
Ischemic induced pain that doesn’t cause myocytes death
When cell death occurs in heart due ischemia the clinical manifestation is present as
MI
Sudden cardiac death is caused by
After MI or due to lethal arrhythmia
What is the acute clinical presentation of IHD
Acute coronary syndrome : catastrophic manifestations
of unstable angina, acute MI, and SCD
Ratios of obstruction in stable and unstable angina
70-75% stable
90% unstable which results in MI or sudden death
Ischemia induce which molecules to induce autonomic afferent
Adenosine and bradykinin
Types of angina
Typical/ stable
Crescendo/unstable
Prinzmetal/variant
Which type of angina Responds to vasodilators such as nitroglycerin and calcium channel
blockers.
Variant
Variant angina occurs at
- Occurs at rest
- Caused by coronary artery spasm.
- Completely normal vessel can be affected.
Episodic chest pain associated with particular levels of exertion
- Crushing or squeezing substernal sensation, that can radiate down the
left arm or to the left jaw (referred pain)
All indicate which type of angina and can be solved
Typical
By rest (reducing demand) or by drugs such as
nitroglycerin (vasodilator
Which type of angina is Associated with plaque disruption and superimposed thrombosis,and/or vasospasm.
Unstable
Unstable occurs at
Increasingly frequent pain, precipitated by progressively less exertion or
even occurring at rest.
Calcium channel blockers can be used in which type of angina
Variant
Risk factors of MI
Atherosclerosis and increased age( occurs at any age) and DM
