OMM Flashcards
cardiac risk equivalents. risk factors for CAD
Symptomatic carotid artery disease, PAD, AAA, CKD. >65yo esp older women, men > women generally, race, tob, chol, HTN (best to be <115/75), DM, obese/metab syndrome, stress
Framingham offspring study. Framingham heart study
inc BMI –> inc risk of CAD. inc risk if fhx premature CAD on dad <55yo or mom <65yo –> better to screen earlier for pos fhx than age of dx of relatives
dx metab syndrome via 3 of 5 traits
waist circumference (men >40in, women >35in), TG >150, low HDL (men/peds <40, women <50), fasting glu >100, bp >130/85
no exer vs smoke vs no fruit/veg vs no drinking inc CAD risk by what?
12% vs 6x women, 3x men vs 14% vs 7%
statins = primary prevention –> prevent 1-2 attacks in 100ppl who take it for 5y. but what are we underestimating? SLCO1B1*5 variant affect what?
risks & side effects. Cochrane review says little to no mortality benefit. statin and catechin metabolism
rib anatomy (5 parts)
head articulating w/ vertebrae & one above, tubercle articulating w/ transverse process, neck, angle = handle of bucket, shaft
inhal vs exhal mm. primary vs secondary breathing mm? abd & pel diaphragms during inhal vs exhal?
diaphragm –> ctx & flattens, external intercostal –> elev ribs ant vs diaphragm –> passively loosens & domes, internal intercostal –> depress ant. mentioned above vs Scalene, Pec minor, Serratus ant/post, Quadratus lumborum, Latissimus dorsi. abd diaphragm ctxs & moves inf, pel diaphragm relaxes & moves inf vs abd diaphragm relax & moves sup, pel diaphragm ctx & moves sup
good vs bad chest fxn –>
dec congestion; inc CO, circ, nutrition, immunity vs dec venous & lymphatic return
ribs can have dysfxn where Tspine has dysfxn –> dmg integrity of costotransverse and/or costovertebral ligamentous articulations. how to tx exhal vs inhal dysfxn vs both w/ goal?
improve rib motion & resp fxn, dec pain, inc lymphatics & circ. screen & tx thoracic dysfxn first; ME w/ 2o resp mm vs resp cooperation w/ 1o resp mm, pt’s own resp vs facilitated position release –> indirect, mixed, pt passive, resp –> dec mm hypertonicity & restore lost motion
etio vs clinical tests vs dx criteria for acute MI
coronary plaque rupture –> thrombus & blockage; coronary spasm, arrhythmia, anemia, sudden cardiac death vs EKG, CK & troponin, coronary angio vs ischemia + EKG changes, path Q waves, img shows loss viable myocardium or MI; sudden cardiac death + EKG/angio changes; biomarkers >3x w/ PCI or >5x w/ CABG + EKG changes; patho evidence of MI
STEMI vs NSTEMI criteria
CP + >1mm ST elev in >2 contig leads or new LBBB –> transmural infarct vs subendocardial tissue
aortic dissection sxs vs PE vs clinical test. if pt <45yo w/ CP doing cocaine?
CP radiating to back, HTN vs bp asym in UE, CXR wide mediastinum vs TEE, CT. consider aortic dissection
pleural effusion sxs vs clinical tests. egophany vs parapneumonic effusion vs neoplastic effusion
cough, SOB, dyspnea +/- CP, dec breath sounds, dullness to chest percussion vs CXR, thoracentesis. when “e” sounds like “a” vs sxs relating to PNA vs dyspnea alone + systemic sxs –> underlying ca
pericarditis sxs vs PE vs clinical tests. take home points?
CP relieved leaning forward; from viral infxn (Coxsackie, echo, adeno), TB, HIV vs friction rub vs echo, EKG -> diffuse ST elev. pericarditis mimics MI; empyema = med emergency -> img and drain
fxns of lymphatic system. 6 components?
fluid bal (30L filtered qd, 90% resorbed into capillaries, 10% resorbed to lymphatics), purify & cleanse tissue, T/B cell defense, nutrition by fat/chol/chylomicrons & remove toxins. liver/spleen, thymus, LN, thoracic duct, cisterna chyli
what’s lymphatic fluid? what does it consist of?
Ultrafiltrate that leaks out of arterial capillaries into interstitium and back into lymphatic vessels.
o Lymphocytes (the primary cell of lymph)
o Protein and salts
o Postprandial water
o Soluble fats
o Clotting factors
o Bacteria and smaller viruses
Collecting ducts = largest trunks drain into venous system. explain R vs L drainage
R thoracic duct -> R subclavian v -> upper right quadrant/1/4 body vs L thoracic duct –> L subclavian v –> 3/4 of body
