ischemic heart disease Flashcards
IHD is also known as
CAD
CHD
atherosclerosis
ISCHEMIA caused by
increased demand and decreased supply
myocardial cell injury occurs when
the ischemic process becomes severe
MI occurs when
the ischemia exceeds the hearts threshold for extended period of time
when do most MI’s occur
early morning
during exercise
EKG MI CLASSIFICATION ST SEGMENT ELEVATION or STEMI
70% of MIs
plaque rupture causes complete occlusion of a major coronary artery
EKG MI CLASSIFICATION NON STEMI or NON ST elevation
30% of MI’s
partial occlusion of a major coronary artery
or
complete occlusion of a minor artery
Transmural MI
extends the entire thickness of the heart wall (endo, myo, Epi cardium)
non transmural MI
does not extends the entire thickness of the heart wall
LIMITED TO ENDO OR MYO Cardium
TYPE 1 MI
spontaneous MI
type 2 MI
MI due to supply and demand issue
type 3 MI
associated w/ sudden death
type 4a MI
assoc. w/ percutaneous coronary intervention
type 4b MI
instent thrombosis
type 5 MI
assoc. w/ coronary artery by pass graft
