ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE Flashcards
myocardium suffers from oxygen deficiency due to this?
increase in demand
decreased O2 transport in blood
reduced coronary blood flow (90%) due to atherosclerotic CAD
ischemic heart disease
clinical manifestations of ischemic heart disease?
angina pectoris
myocardial infarction
this type of ischemic is less severe and does not cause death of cardiac muscle
angina pectoris
what are the types of intermittent chest pain, characteristic of angina pectoris?
typical(stable) most common
prinzmetal (variant)
unstable (crescendo)
this is severe ischemia with death of cardiac muscle, leading causes of death in US?
types
myocardial infarction
subendocardial
transmural
gross morphology? <6-12 hours 2-3 hours 18-24 hours 7 days 6 weeks
nothing
brick red color, infarct=pale
zone, scar=white and glistening
pallor
sharp definition
well developed scar
histology? <4-8 4-12 18-24 24-72 3-10 days 2-4 weeks 7 weeks
almost no changes
coagulation necrosis, edema
coagulation necrosis, pallor
total coagulation necrosis
macrophage resorption of dead myofibers, weakest time period
replacement by granulation tissue
scarring completed
complications of MI?
contractile dysfunction arrhythmias myocardial rupture pericarditis mural thrombus
this is a natural death from cardiac causes that fulfills 2 criteria:
2 parts
abrupt loss of consciousness
occurring within 1 hour of the onset of acute symptoms
major risk factors of coronary artery atherosclerosis?
hypercholesterolemia
cigarette smoking
hypertension
diabetes mellitus
two types of IHD?
acute ischemic heart disease
chronic ischemia heart disease
