POM Flashcards
murmurs: auscultation of the apex of the heart (mitral/tricuspid/2nd pulmonic/pulmonic/aortic)
mitral
murmurs: auscultation of the lower left sternal border of the heart (mitral/tricuspid/2nd pulmonic/pulmonic/aortic)
tricuspid
murmurs: auscultation of the 3rd left intercostal space at the sternal border (mitral/tricuspid/2nd pulmonic/pulmonic/aortic)
second pulmonic
murmurs: auscultation of the 2rd left intercostal space at the sternal border (mitral/tricuspid/2nd pulmonic/pulmonic/aortic)
pulmonic
murmurs: auscultation of the 2rd right intercostal space at the right sternal border (mitral/tricuspid/2nd pulmonic/pulmonic/aortic)
aortic
murmurs: intensity on a scale of 1 to _
6 can be heard with a stethoscope off the chest!
murmurs: intensity level _ is a palpable thrill
4
murmurs: S3 is (an atrial/a ventricular) gallop
ventricular
murmurs: S4 is (an atrial/a ventricular) gallop
atrial
murmurs: S3 and S4 are (high/low) pitched, so they are heard better with the bell
low pitched
murmurs: (systolic/diastolic) include aortic stenosis and mitral regurg
systolic
murmurs: (systolic/diastolic) include aortic regurg and mitral stenosis
diastolic
OSA: second most common sleep related breathing disorder after ____
primary snoring
syncope: Tilt-table is useful in diagnosing (cardiac/neurogenic/orthostatic hypotension) syncope
neurogenic
syncope: holter monitoring is useful in diagnosing (cardiac/neurogenic/orthostatic hypotension) syncope
cardiac. also echo, implantable loop recorders
syncope: (cardiac/neurogenic/orthostatic hypotension) most effectively treated
cardiac
syncope: (2) (cardiac/neurogenic/orthostatic hypotension) tx by avoiding trigger, tight stockings, medications review, lifestyle changes
neuro and orthostatic hypotension
OSA: second most common sleep related breathing disorder after ____
primary snoring
OSA: incomplete upper airway obstruction (hyopapnea/apnea)
hypoapnea
OSA: who has a greater risk, men or women?
men have 3x greater than premenopausal women
OSA: three subgroups of women with increased risk
post menopausal, pregnant, PCOS
OSA: (caucasian/non caucasian) higher risk
non caucasian
OSA: three main pathogenic factors: obesity, decreased upper airway size, and ____
sedentary behavior
OSA: upper airway size is smaller, particularly the (vertical/lateral) dimensions
lateral. evaluate with Mallampati score (MMS)
OSA: sedentary behavior causes increased ___ at night
fluid shifts from the lower extremities to the upper torso
OSA: two most reliable indicators of OSA
nocturnal choking and gasping
