roop week 12 Flashcards
what is a 4th heart sound?
S4 and atrial gallop
(you should not be able to hear unless you are a child or small person)
the 4th heart sound occurs before ___ when ___ contract to force blood into the left ventricle
- S1
- atria
if the left ventricle is ___ and atrial contraction forces blood thru the atrioventricular valves, S4 is produced by the blood striking left ventricle
noncompliant
Noncompliance can be caused by the overreaction from hypertension leading to ___
ventricular hypertrophy
___is the closure of AV valves
S1
____is the closure of semilunar valve
S2
The S4 heart sound is a low frequency sound in ____
late diastole
what is the sound the 4th heart sound makes?
Le-lub-dub
what is the S4 heart sound caused by?
the atrial kick into a noncompliant ventricle
The 4th heart sound is seen in patients with stiffened left ventricles, resulting from conditions such as ?
hypertension, aortic stenosis, ischemic or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, acute MI
In patients with mitral regurgitation, suggestive of acute onset of regurgitation due to the rupture of the ____that anchors the valvular leaflets
chorda tendinae
The 4th heart sound is heard best with the ____ of the stethoscope at the apex
bell
S4 pathology:
-rightventricular: _____
pulmonary stenosis and PAH
S4 pathology:
-left ventricular: ____
systemic HTN, aortic stenosis and HCM
other S4 pathology?
coronary artery disease, acute regurgitation lesions and heart block
what consists of S4 physiologically?
elderly greater than 50 and hyperkinetic states
____something putting pressure (ICP) on optic nerve and blurring optic disc
papilledema
papilledema on fundoscopic exam: you can see ____
you can not see optic disc anymore
what consists of microvascular lesions?
heart, kidney and brain
what organ is the long term regulator of BP?
Kidneys
____water
duiresis
___salt
natiuresis
what is causing the headaches
cerebral edema (ICP as a result of hypertension)
what is causing the papilledema?
arteriole constriction, increase filtration pressure due to high BP and sausage string pattern (blood vessels become constricted)
____vasocontrict, to decrease blood volume and control how much blood is coming in
arteriole
____cerebral edema is impinging optic nerve causing papilledema
increase filtration pressure due to high BP
increased blood pressure leads to failure of autoregulation leading to forced vasodilation (sausage string pattern), leading to ___endothelial permeability, hypoperfusion and ___ capillary hydrostatic pressure leading to ___
1and 2. increase
3. cerebral edema leading to hypertensive encephalopathy (headache, nausea, vomiting, altered mental status, convulsions)
Is the patient in renal failure?
Yes, bun and creatine levels are high, patient has not been able to urinate for the past 24 hours, metabolic acidosis (bicarbonate, ph and hydrogen iron is low)
