Some CV and renal conditions and DM drugs Flashcards
S3
Early diastole
Associated with INCREASED FILLING PRESSURES (MR, HF); More common in dilated ventricles
Normal in children, pregnant women
S4
Late diastole - ‘Atrial kick’ due to high atrial pressure
Associated with ventricular hypertrophy and stiff LV wall
Best heard in left lateral decubitus
Normal S2 splitting
A2-P2 widens slightly with inspiration
Inspiration -> drop in intrathoracic pressure -> increased venous return -> increased RV filling and SV -> INCREASED RV EJECTION TIME-> Delayed closure of PV in cycle compared to AV
Wide S2 splitting
A2-P2 exaggeratedly split
CONDITIONS THAT DELAY RV EMPTYING (PS, RBBB) -> Delayed PV closure regardless of breath, but increases with inspiration
Fixed S2 splitting
A2-P2 exaggeratedly split and unchanging
OCCURS IN ASD
L->R shunt increases RA/RV volumes -> Delayed PV closure regardless of breath that DOESN’T CHANGE WITH INSPIRATION
Paradoxical S2 splitting
Conditions that delay AV closure (AS, LBBB) -> Reversal of normal valve closure order -> P2-A2 heard
On inspiration -> Increased RV ejection time -> P2 heard later and closer to A2 -> Split narrows instead of widening
Kussmaul sign
Increased JVP on inspiration instead of normal decrease
Due to impaired RV filling with constrictive pericarditis, restrictive cardiomyopathies, tumors in RA/RV
PAN
Medium vessel vasculitis in young adults affecting renal, visceral vascular beds, but NOT PULM aa
Sx based on affected organs
Due to immune complexes -> Fibrinoid necrosis
Associated w/ HBV
micro-PAN
Necrotizing vasculitis commonly involving lung, kidneys, and skin w/ pauci-immune glomerulonephritis and palpable purpura
Presents as granulomatosis with polyangiitis without nasopharyngeal involvement
No granulomas, asthma, or eosinophilia (vs. Churg-Strauss)
Nephritic syndromes
Inflammatory conditions -> Hematuria, RBC casts in urine; Azotemia, oliguria, HTN, mild proteinuria
Acute PSGN, RPGN (crescentic), DPGN, IgA nephropathy (Berger disease), Alport syndrome, MPGN
Nephrotic syndromes
Podocyte damage disrupting glomerular filtration charge barrier -> Massive proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hypogammaglobulinemia, edema, hyperlipidemia
Frothy urine with fatty casts
Hypercoagulable state due to ATIII loss
Minimal change disease, FSGS - No IC deposits, podocyte foot process effacement only
Membranous nephropathy, MPGN - Granular IF
Amyloidosis, DM glomerulonephropathy - due to systemic conditions
Acute PSGN
Nephritic
Enlarged, hypercellular glomerulid
Granular IF w/ IgG, IgM, C3 deposition in GBM and mesangium
Subepithelial IC humps, low serum C3
RP (crescentic) GN
Nephritic
Crescent-shaped deposits of fibrin, plasma protein (e.g. C3b), and macrophages
Poor prognosis
Associated w/ Goodpasture syndrome, Wegener’s granulomatosis w/ polyangiitis, and microscopic polyangiitis
DPGN
Mixed nephritic/nephrotic
SLE nephritis - most common COD
Subendothelial or intramembranous IgG ICs w/ C3 deposition - granular IF
IgA nephropathy
Nephritic
AKA Berger disease
IgA IC deposits in mesangium -> mesangial proliferation
Episodic hematuria w/ RBC casts presenting after acute gastroenteritis
Renal pathology of Henoch-Schonlein purpura
