no change in QT interval
17
Q

Class I - Na channel blocker

A

anti-arrhythmia
IC>IA>IB

IC - most use dependence

18
Q
class III - K channel blocker
AIDS
A

anti-arrhythmia
INC AP duration
INC QT interval - lower incidence of torsade de points

19
Q

Amiodarone AE

A

class III
hepatotoxic
pulmonary fibrosis - check PFTs
thyroid toxic - check TSH

20
Q

Sotalol AE

A
class III
torsade de pointes (syncope + polymorphic QRS that changes in amplitude, cycle)
21
Q

Adenosine

A

anti-arrhythmia (IV)
DOC x SVT - sudden onset of palpitation

Prolong Phase 4 (Inc K out –> hyper polarization, Dec Ca current)

AE - flushing, chest pain, bronchospasm/burning chest, SOB

use x chemical stress test

22
Q

Nitrate effect

A

DEC end systolic LV volume (bc decrease preload)
Dec O2 demand

INC HR (reflex tachy)

23
Q

Ca channel blockers

A

VErapamil > diltiazem > amlodipine

Bradycardia, slow AV conduction

AE - peripheral edema

24
Q

Ca channel blocker vascular smooth muscle

A

amlodipine = nifedipine > diltiazem > verapamil

vasodilator

25
