S2 L2.7: Management of CAD Flashcards
What are the five (5) possible management of CAD?
- Identify & treat associated diseases that can precipitate or worsen angina
- Reduce coronary risk factors
- General and nonpharmacological methods, lifestyle modification
- Pharmacological Mx
- Revascularization
Give me the three (3) types or methods for revascularization
- Fibrinolysis
- Percutaneous coronary intervention
- CABG
REVASCULARIZATION
Done in acute coronary syndrome by melting the
clot
Fibrinolysis
REVASCULARIZATION
Heart bypass
Percutaneous coronary intervention
Stent is used to open up the closed arteries so that blood could flow again
CABG
Is the process of getting arteries from the L
intramammary artery where the great saphenous vein is → then is used as a bypass to be attached distally in the lesion while proximal portion is attached to the aorta
CABG
CABG is the process of getting arteries from the L
_______ artery where the ______ _______ vein is →
then is used as a bypass to be attached _____ in the lesion while proximal portion is attached to the _____
CABG is the process of getting arteries from the L
INTRAMAMMARY ARTERY where the GREAT SAPHENOUS vein is → then is used as a bypass to be attached DISTALLY in the lesion while proximal portion is attached to the AORTA
Deployment of stents to open up closed arteries to allow blood flow
PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION
(PCI)/ANGIOPLASTY
Done in the cardiac catheterization lab (cath lab)
PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION
(PCI)/ANGIOPLASTY
Metallic stent is inserted which stays forever
Stenting
Commonly done in the present
Stenting
Absorbable stent may also be used which dissolves over time after opening the obstructed artery
Stenting
Inflating the inserted balloon material to dilate open the narrowed artery
Balloon Angioplasty
In the past, it was commonly done
without inserting any stent.
Balloon Angioplasty
Also known as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Coronary Artery Angioplasty (Radial Access)
Procedure is done on the coronary arteries supplying
the heart muscle with oxygen.
Coronary Artery Angioplasty (Radial Access)
Goal is to restore blood flow if a substance if plaque
has significantly narrowed the blood vessels
Coronary Artery Angioplasty (Radial Access)
Arrange the following steps of coronary artery angioplasty (radial access) from 1 to 10:
Needle will be placed through the skin and into the radial artery
Doctor will numb the skin in the wrist
A flexible guidewire will be passed through the needle and into the artery
The guidewire will be advanced to the heart and the catheter will be advanced over the wire to the
coronary artery
Needle will be withdrawn and replaced with a small, flexible tube called the sheath to permit access to the artery. Pressure may be felt when the sheath is inserted but it will not be felt moving inside the artery
If a significant blockage is found, the guidewire will be inserted to the artery
A special dye will be injected to the artery for better viewing. The dye will make any blockage stand out
The doctor will move the tip of the catheter just
inside the coronary artery to be examined
The doctor will remove the guidewire
Progress of the procedure will be checked through an x-ray device called Fluoroscope

Arrange the following steps of coronary artery angioplasty (radial access) to balloon angioplasty from 9 to 13:
A special dye will be injected to the artery for better viewing. The dye will make any blockage stand out
If a significant blockage is found, the guidewire will be inserted to the artery
The doctor will then deflate and remove the balloon
A balloon on the tip of the catheter will be movedalong the wire to the blockage
When the balloon inflates, it will expand the arteryand improve the blood flow. Chest discomfort may be felt
- A special dye will be injected to the artery for better viewing. The dye will make any blockage stand out
- If a significant blockage is found, the guidewire will be inserted to the artery
BALLOON ANGIOPLASTY:
11. A balloon on the tip of the catheter will be movedalong the wire to the blockage
12. When the balloon inflates, it will expand the arteryand improve the blood flow. Chest discomfort may be felt
13. The doctor will then deflate and remove the balloon
Arrange the following steps of balloon angioplasty to stenting from 12 to 18:
At the end of the procedure the guidewire will be removed
When the balloon is inflated, the stent will expand and lock into place
After the balloon catheter is taken out, the stent will stay in place to hold the artery open
The stent will be moved into the artery over the same guidewire
A wire mesh tube called a stent will be placed to the treated area to help keep the coronary artery opened. The doctor will choose the proper size of the stent which will be compressed over the balloon
The doctor will then deflate and remove the balloon
When the balloon inflates, it will expand the artery and improve the blood flow. Chest discomfort maybe felt

Performed to improve circulation to the heart muscle in people with severe coronary artery disease
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
In this procedure, a healthy artery or vein from
another part of the body is connected or grafted to the blocked coronary artery. The grafted artery or vein bypasses the blocked portion of the coronary artery, carrying oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle.
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
T/F
In CABG, one or more coronary arteries may be bypassed during a single operation.
True
This surgery takes 3 - 6 hrs
Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)
Arrange the following steps under CABG from 1 to 3:
Proximal portion of bypass graft is attached to the aorta
Distal portion of bypass graft is attached distal to the lesion
Getting arteries from the left intramammary artery or great sacculus vein to use as bypass
- Getting arteries from the left intramammary artery or great sacculus vein to use as bypass
- Distal portion of bypass graft is attached distal to the lesion
- Proximal portion of bypass graft is attached to the aorta
Arrange the following steps of BEFORE THE CABG PROCEDURE in order:
CABG procedures are done under general anesthesia which will put the patient to sleep for the duration of the operation.
A catheter will be placed in the bladder to drain the urine
A breathing tube will be inserted through the mouth and into the throat to help in breathing
An IV line will be started and medication may also be given to help the patient relax
- An IV line will be started and medication may also be given to help the patient relax
- CABG procedures are done under general anesthesia which will put the patient to sleep for the duration of the operation.
- A breathing tube will be inserted through the mouth and into the throat to help in breathing
- A catheter will be placed in the bladder to drain the urine
Arrange the following steps of DURING THE CABG PROCEDURE in order:
The surgeon begins by making an incision in the skin over the breastbone or sternum.
The sternum will then be cut and move the rib cage in order to get to the heart.
One of two blood vessels is typically used for the graft: Internal thoracic artery in the chest or
Saphenous vein in the leg
Throughout the procedure, the circulatory system will be connected to a pulmonary bypass pump or heart-lung machine. This machine temporarily performs the functions of the heart and lungs during surgery, allowing the heart to be stopped while the surgeon sews the grafts into place.
With the graft securely in place, the surgeon will use electrical signals to restore the heartbeat and attach a temporary pacemaker to the heart.
A temporary drainage tube will be placed through the skin beneath the incision
The surgeon will wire the breastbone back together and suture the skin incision close
Once the heart is beating normally, the heart-lung machine will be disconnected
