Test 91 Flashcards
common complication of varicose veins
venous stasis ulcers around the medial malleoulus
assymetric ventriular septal hypertrophpy and variable dynamic left ventircular outflow tract obstruction
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
lead to increaed murmur intesnsity in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Decreasing preload/afterload reduces LV chamber size, decreasing the separation between the mtiral valalve and the IV septum, increasing obstruction
sudden standing, vasalva (strain phase), Nitro
squatting
sustained hand grip
passive leg raise
increase preload/afterload> DECREASE LVOT murmur intesnsity
