Q

What are the causes of BBB?

A

• Often caused by slowly progressive fibrosis/sclerosis
• More common in older patients
• Can result from “structural heart disease”
• LBBB: Prior MI, cardiomyopathy
RBBB: Right heart failure

Q

Which blood vessle contain the least O2 concentren in body?

A

coronary sinus

20
Q

Nervous input has very important role on coronary blood flow
T/F

A

Nervous input has very little role on coronary blood flow.

21
Q

NO is synthesized from
By

A

Arginine
By NO synthase

22
Q

No is synthesized by

A

Endothelial cells

23
Q

No is Synthesized by endothelial cells and causes vascular smooth muscle relaxation by a guanylate cyclase-mediated cGMP second messenger system.

24
Q

Acetylcholine, bradykinin and shear stress will cause

A

Vasodilation

25
Ca will increase the activity of NOsynthase T/F
T
26
Hypoxia in lungs causes vasodilation T/F
Vasoconstriction
27
Where do we see v wave
In mitral regurgitation
28
How to diagnose AR on aortic pressure curve?
1-Absence of diacritic notch. 2- Steep diastolic decline on the curve. 3- High peak of aortic pressure + wide pulse pressure.
29
A wave is absent in:
Atrial fibrillation
30
Cannon a wave is seen in:
Complete heat block
31
X descent is absent in:
Tricuspid regurgitation
32
In v wave atrial pressure is increased due to:
Filling
33
Giant v wave is seen in:
Tricuspid regurgitation
34
•Rapid deep descent in y-descent
in constrictive pericarditis.
35
Harsh sounding murmur
VSD
36
most frequent valvular lesion
Mitral valve prolapse
37
Caused by myxomatous degeneration?
MVP
38
Murmur best heard when patient sits up and leans forward?
AR
39
Alveolar hemorrhage is seen in
MS
40
Mitral stenosis causes left sided heart failure T/F?
False Right
41
ANP acts via
cGMP
42
PCWP is measured by
Swan ganz catheter
43
How does venous thrombosis cause edema?
By increasing hydrostatic pressure
