Q

Why do post menopausal women have an increased risk of CAD?

A

Estrogen plays a role in increasing HDL levels and because it is absent post menopause it changes the female’s risks to that of male equivalents

Q

HS-CRP vs CRP

A

High sensitivity CRP is a test that allows for detection of markers in lower grade conc than CRP and is theorized to be a better predictor of MI than CRP as a result, both are nonspecific inflammatory markers that can be present regardless of MI

19
Q

Inferior wall MI (right ventricle infarct due to occlusion of posterior descending artery) triad of presentation

A

20
Q

Clinical stratification classification of MI (4)

A

Killip Class I - no pulmonary congestion and no shock

  • Positive cardiac enzyme test
22
Q

TIMI Risk score classification system for MI (what MI types is it for, and list the values)

low risk 0-2, moderate risk 3-4, high risk 5-7

23
Q

Highest risk factor for Myocardial infarction

A

Smoking

24
Q

2ndary pericarditis to MI characterized by malaise, fever, and pericardial pain

31
Q

Key distinguishing finding to determine between RV infarct and HF

A

-The lungs are clear upon auscultation in RV infarct despite the increased JVD and hypotension, while the lungs are not clear sounding in HF
