T1:
-magnetic vector relaxes
-fat appears brighter, water appears dark
-good gray/white matter contrast-anatomy
T2:
-axial spin relaxes
-fat is darker than water
-identifies tissue edema easily-pathology
Estimation of Burn Injuries for Infants:
-head: 21%
-abdomen: 13%
-back: 13%
-each arm: 10%
-each leg: 13.5%
-buttocks: 5%
-genital area: 1%
CO “ebb state”:
-CO reduced by 60%
-hypovolemia due to permeability
-reduced response to catecholamines
-increased SVR
-myocardial ischemia d/t decreased coronary flow
-ensure appropriate fluid resuscitation
CO “Flow phase”:
-72-96 hours post-burn
-hyper-dynamic: increased CO and tachycardia
-increased myocardial O2 consumption
-increased possibility of ischemia
-decreased SVR
-this is when it’s good to give beta blockers!!
Carboxyhemoglobin levels: 1-3%:
normal nonsmoker
Carboxyhemoglobin levels: 4-9%:
smokers
Carboxyhemoglobin levels: 15-20%:
overt signs of toxicity: HA, N/V
Carboxyhemoglobin levels: 20-25%:
signs of severe toxicity: seizures, acute renal failure, myocardial ischemia
Carboxyhemoglobin levels: >25%:
unconsciousness and death
Reciprocal Changes for Inferior (2, 3, AVF):
1, AVL
Reciprocal Changes for Anterior (V3 and V4):
2, 3, AVF
Reciprocal Changes for Lateral (V5, V6, 1, AVL):
2, 3, AVF
Inferior MI:
Yes to fluids, NO to nitrates
Anterior MI:
Yes to nitrates, NO to fluid!
Right Atrial Hypertrophy:
-first part of P wave is LARGER in V1
-height of QRS >2.5mm in any limb lead
Left Atrial Hypertrophy:
-terminal part of P wave is LARGER in V1
-occurs with mitral stenosis and systemic HTN
Right Ventricular Hypertrophy:
-RV wall is VERY thick, more depolarization towards V1
-QRS in V1 are positive, R waves get smaller
Left Ventricular Hypertrophy:
-large S wave in V1, LARGER R wave in V5
-depth of V1 and height of V5= 35 mm
