Test 2 lecture 5 Flashcards
Goals of Revascularization (2)
-restore myocardial blood flow -improve prognosis (mortality and morbidity)
What is CABS?
Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
What is PCI?
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
What is PTCA?
Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty
In 2008, how many CABS cases were there?
240,000
In 2008, how many PCI cases were there?
817,000
Name the factors considered for revascularization (5)
-significant lesions (or more than 50% stenosis) -lesion location -plaque stability -prognosis -quality of life
How is the CABS procedure done?
It uses a graft to bypass the area of occlusion
What vein is normally used for the CABS procedure?
Saphenous vein
Name the indications for CABS (4)
-re-stenosis after PCI -multivessel disease -difficult lesions -disease not amenable (receptive) to PCI
Advanced CABS eliminated what two procedures?
-sternoctomy -heart-lung bypass
T/F: Surgeons for CABS can now operate on beating hearts.
True
Name the types of patients that should have CABS (4)
-post PCI with re-stenosis -multivessel disease not receptive to PCI -difficult lesions (bifurcated or distal) -other cases (PCI)
Name the things that can increase as a result of CABS (6)
-survival rate -functional capacity -left ventricular function -HR max -RPP -quality of life
Name the things that can decrease as a result of CABS (3)
-angina -ischemia -ST segment depression
CABS outcomes can depend on what three things?
-severity and location of lesion -age -co-morbidities
What are the re-occlusion rates for 1 year, 5 years and 11 years?
What are the re-occlusion rates for 1 year, 5 years and 11 years?
1 year: 10%,
5 Years: 20%
11 Years:40%
What is the purpose of the PTCA procedure?
Widens narrowed or obstructed vessels
