Stable Ischemic Heart Disease Flashcards
angina
chest pain, pressure, tightness
Stable angina
predictable chest pain from stress like exertion
relieved within minutes by rest or nitroglycerin
unstable angina
type of ACS
angina not relieved by rest or nitroglycerin
name of angina that can occur at rest
Prinzmetal’s
from vasospasm of coronary arteries
what causes chest pain
imbalance of myocardial oxygen demand and oxygen supply
what increases myocardial oxygen demand
inc HR
contractility
Left ventricular wall tension
atherosclerosis
plaque build-up in inner walls of coronary arteries = dec myocardial oxygen supply = CAD (reduced blood flow to heart)
risk factors for SIHD
HTN
smoking
dyslipidemia
diabetes
obesity
physical inactivity
what is used to assess likelihood of CAD and diagnosis SIHD
cardiac stress test
what does cardiac stress test do
inc myocardial oxygen demand with exercise like treadmill or IV drugs
what IV drugs are used for stress test
adenosine
dipyridamole
dobutamine
regadenoson/Lexiscan
non-drug treatment
heart healthy diet
BMI 18.5-24.9
wait <35 for female <40 for male
moderate aerobic activity for 30-60 min on 5-7 days/week
quit smoking
limit alcohol to 1 drink/day for women and 1-2/day for men
what drug categories are used for SIHD
antiplatelet + antianginal
recommended antiplatelet for SIHD
ASA
what is second choice for antiplatelet for SIHD
clopidogrel/Plavis is ASA allergy/another CI to ASA
goal of antianginal treatment
decrease myocardial oxygen demand or inc myocardial oxygen supply
what antianginal treatment is first-line
beta-blockers
what antianginal treatment should be used if can’t use BB
CCBs
long-acting nitrates
nitroglycerin SL for immediate relief in all patients
what cholesterol medication should be given
high-intensity statin
type of ASCVD
what drugs should be given for CAD + diabetes
ACEI/ARB for hypertension
other guideline-recommended for HTN, HF, diabetes - aggressive management
ASA MOA
irreversibly inhibit COX-1 and COX-2 = dec prostaglandin and thomboxane A2
clopidogrel MOA
prodrug
irreversibly inhibits P2Y12 ADP-mediated platelet activation and aggregation
ASA (Bayer, Bufferin, Ecotrin) dosing
Rx: ER capsule, delayed-release tablet
75-162 mg daily
