murmurs Flashcards
mitral stenosis etiology
rhematic fever
immune mediated damage to mitral valve leading to fish mouth shaped orifice
mitral stenosis pressure
increased LA pressure (and size)
increased pulmonary venous pressure
leads to pulmonary congestion
mitral stenosis exacerbation
anything that increases flow across mitral valve: exercise, tachy
mitral stenosis long term (2)
pulomnary HTN (leading to RHF) A fib due to increase LA size and pressure
mitral stenosis symptoms
exertional dyspnea, orthopnea, PND
palpitations
hemoptysis
mitral stenosis murmur
low pitched DIASTOLIC rumble with S2 followed by opening snap
closer S2 and opening snap = worse
Loud S1
mitral stenosis tx
beta blocker: decrease HR and CO
diuretics for pulm congestion and edema
balloon valvuloplasty
aortic stenosis etiology
calcification of valve - early in abnl bicuspid, later for tricuspid
rheumatic fever
aortic stenosis remodeling
increased LV hypertrophy, causing obstruction to LV outflow
late: increaed LV, LA
aortic stenosis severe
CO decreases causing angina with exertion
LV dilation and dysfunction
pulls apart mitral valve annulua apart, causing MR
aortic stenosis symptoms
angina, syncope or HF
many are asymptomatic
aortic stenosis murmur
hard cresendo-decresendo SYSTOLIC murmur radiating to carotids
softer with valsalva - less flow across valve
second right intercostal space
soft S2
parvus et tardus: delayed carotid upstrokes (weak and slow rising carotid pulse)
precordial thrill
aortic stenosis tx
valve replacement is treatment of choice
aortic regurg etiology
inadequate closure of aortic valve causing regurg blood flow into LV
infective endocarditis, trauma, aortic dissection
bicuspid valve, marfan, ehlers-danlos, ankylosing spondylitis, SLE
syphilitic aortisis, osteogenica imperfecta
aortic regurg pressure
LV dilation and hypertrophy to maintain stroke volume and prevent diastolic pressure from increasing
Increased LV end diastolic volume and pressure, leading to pulmonary congestion
Causing increased LV and pulmonary pressures (late)
aortic regurg murmur
DIASTOLIC decresendo murmur
INCREASES with increased SVR, eg handgrip, causes backflow through incompetent valve
