Lecture 2 - Ischemic Heart Disease Flashcards
Ischemic Heart Disease occurs due to…
increase in myocardial O2 demand
or
Decrease in O2 supply to heart
Angina Pectoris is…..
characterized by pain or discomfort, primarily in the chest, but may also be described in the jaw/shoulder/back or arm
commonly due to IHD
Prinzmetals “Variant” Angina
Occurs at rest
Due to coronary Vasospasm
Reversed w/ Nitroglyc and CCB
Silent Myocardial Ischemia
More common in femlaes
Type 1 = less common
Type 2 = more common
Type 1 Silent Myocardial Ischemia
Due to defective anginal warning system
Type 2 Silent Myocardial Ischemia
Angina poor indicator of ischemia
indicated higher risk patient
Stable or Exertional Angina
Exertional pain lasting < 20 min, relieved by rest
Unstable Angina, STEMI, or NSTEMI
Pain occurring at rest lasting > 20 min
Alterable IHD Risk Factors
Smoking Dyslipidemia DM Hypertension Physical inactivity BMI >30 Low fruit/veggie consumption Alcohol overconsumption
Unalterable IHD Risk Factors
Gender = men + postmenopausal women Age = Men >45, Women > 55 FH = father <55, mother <65 Environment = climate, air pollution, drinking water
Subjective symptoms associated with angina
SOB SOB on exertion palpitations Chest pain Lightheadedness
Objective symptoms associated with angina
BP, HR,
decreased Oxygen saturation on ABG
ECG changes
ST seg elevation or depression
Measure of MVO2 (non-invasive)
Double product
HR X SBP
Determinants of Oxygen Supply (MVO2)
Arterial PO2
Diastolic Filling time
Coronary Blood flow
Determinants of Oxygen Demand (MVO2)
Heart Rate
Myocardial Contractility
Ventricular wall tension
IHD is the result of….
increase in Oxygen demand and decrease in Oxygen supply
Treating Angina
- Get symptoms
- Do workup
- Control risk factors
- Try 1’/2’ prevention
- Try antianginal therapy
Class I suggested wording
Is recommended/ is indicated
Class IIa suggested wording
Should be considered
Class IIb suggested wording
May be considered
Class III suggested wording
Is not recommended
Management of Angina (for acute attacks) use…
SL nitroglycerin for acute attacks
If Vasospastic angina, BP <130/80 then….
add LA nitrate
If Vasospastic angina, BP >130/80 then….
add CCB
If not Vasospastic angina, heart rate >60 BPM then….
- Beta-blocker
2. Non-DHP CCB
If angina symptoms not controlled on Beta-blocker & Non-DHP CCB then….
BP < 130/80 = Add Ranolazine/ LA nitrate
BP >130/80 = Add DHP CCB
Last line therapy for Angina?
Consider PCI or CABG surgery
Treatment outline for Angina
- Risk factor modifications
- Select appropriate anti platelet
- Assess comorbidities
- Select antianginal therapy
