Q

What difference between the pneumona and pneuoghorax ?

A

The pneumonia is infection in air ways or the air sac(alveoli)

The pneumothorax is the lung collapse by the air found in the plueral cavity cause mainly by chest injury or lung disease

Q

What the pathology of the MI

A
1-the  chronic endothelial injury occur by the 
hypertension 
Tobacoo uses
Hyperlipidemia 
Diabetes 
Toxins 
Infection 

2-the inflammation initiate in the intima layer and lead to formation of the fatty steak

3-the fibrous cap covers the fatty steak and the lumen of the vessles become narrow

4-the the rupture in the fibrous cap lead to initate thrombosis formation and prograssive along the coronary artey

5-the first area that undergo to the necrosis is subendocardial because it compress first and relax last and also it away from the artery than epicardial area of myocardial layer

6-complete occlusion lead to the transmural nocrosis

7-the granulation tissue is form then the fibrous tissue replace the normal myocardial tissue

Q

List the three types of angina and what their causes

A

Stable angina —–fixed stenosis in the coronary artery and mainly by fixed (not reptured ) artherosclerotic plaque

Variant (vasospasmtic )angina—cause by abnormal vasocontraction in the coronary artery

Unstable angina—-cause by the reptured artherosclerotic and prograssive thrombosis formation

Q

Changes in ecg in

Stable angina
Unstable angina
NSTEMI
STEMI

A

stable anginn—–normal ecg at rest and may have ST dpression at stress conditions

Unstabel angina —varient change normal , T WAVE Invertion and st dpression

NSTEMI —–T WAVE invertion and ST dpresstion

STEMI——– ST elevation

Q

What the mian difference between the stable and unstable angina

A
  • The pain occur at physical activity or stress only in the patient with stable angina
  • The pain occur at rest in patient with unstable angia

The pain relieve by GTN in stable angina but not unstable angina

In ECG in stable angina often see normal but in the unstable angina often see st dpression

Q

What the elevation of these biomarkers indicate ?

A

Myocardial infraction

17
Q

The elevation of enzymes (CK,Troponin) indicate angina ?
True
False

A
False
Myocardial infraction (irreversible injury)
18
Q

What the benefit of the nitrovasodiators and calcium antagonists in managment of stable angina?

A

These drugs cause vasodiation and improve coronary prefusion

19
Q

What the benefit of beta blocker in stable angina mangment ?

A

It decrease heart workout so decrease o2 demand

20
Q

benefit of the asprin in decrease the risk of IHD?

A

It act as the vasodilstor and antithrombotic drug

Prevent platelets aggregation

21
Q

What the benefit of statin drugs in decrease risk of IHD ?

A

Decrease the cholestrol in blood

22
Q

What the meaning of revascularization and what the two types of surgical procedures use in revascularization?

A

Revascularization is restoration of perfusion to a body part or organ that has suffered ischemia

Two types of surgical procedures :

CABG
PCI

23
Q

How difference bwtween the unstable and NSTEMI?

A

By cardiac biomarkers
If there are enzymes Elevation —–NSTEMI
If there are no enzymes elevation —-Unstable angina

24
Q

Difine the acute coronary syndrome?

A

It relate to the group of the symptoms attributed to the obstruction of the coronary arteries .

ACS IS a result of

  • unstable angina
  • NSTEMI
  • STEMI
25
Q

Define pericaditits

A

pericarditis (an inflammation of the serous layer around the heart).

26
Q

What the benefit of the ACEI In decrease the risk of MI?

A

It decrease the pressure by decrease the reabsorption of the water from kideny and act as vasodialtor

27
Q

What cause of sound that the doctor may hear it in pateint with pericarditis ?

A

It is pericardial friction rub that cause by movment of inflamed pericardium

28
Q

What the causes of pericarditis ?

A

Viral or bacerial infection
Post MI
malignant indisposition
Connective tissue disorders
