21
Q

Decreased by Nitrates

A

Venodilation

22
Q

Amount of blood present in ventricles prior contraction

A

Preload

23
Q

Increases by nitrates and CCBs

A

Arteriodilators

24
Q

Decreased by N-blockers and some CCB’s

A

•NON - DHP
• Verapamil

25
Q

a surgical procedure used to treat coronary heart disease.

A

Coronary artery bypass graft surgery

26
Q

Nitrates/Nitrovasodilators effects

A
  1. Selective Venodilation (low doses)
  2. Arteriodilation (high doses)
27
Q

Only nitrite compound used to treat angina.

A

Amyl Nitrite

28
Q

Volatile liquid administered by inhalation.

A

Amyl Nitrite

29
Q

Most rapid onset (in 30 sec.) and has the shortest DOA.

A

Amyl Nitrite

30
Q

▪ Treatment of acute angina attacks.
▪ Initial treatment of cyanide poisoning.

A

Amyl Nitrite

31
Q

▪ Sublingual → acute angina attacks
▪ Oral (SR) and transdermal → prevention of angina attacks
▪ Intravenous → AHF associated with angina and MI

A

Nitroglycerin

32
Q

Sublingual & oral for both preventive and treatment of angina attacks

A

ISDN (Isosorbide dinitrate)

33
Q

Beta Blockers drugs

A

• ATENOLOL
• PROPRANOLOL
• METOPROLOL

34
Q

Brand name of ATENOLOL

A

Tenormin

35
Q

Brand name of PROPRANOLOL

A

Inderal

36
Q

Brand name of METOPROLOL

A

Lopressor

37
Q

Only used in the maintenance therapy and prophylaxis of exertional angina

A

Beta Blockers

38
Q

Prevent reflex tachycardia

A

Beta Blockers

39
Q

Increases patient survival after MI

A

Beta Blockers

40
Q

CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKERS drugs

A

Non-DHP CCBs ( Non-dihydropyridine )
•Diltiazem
•Verapamil

41
Q

DHP (Dihydropyridine) CCBs drugs

A

nifedipine, isradipine, felodipine, nicardipine, nisoldipine, lacidipine, amlodipine, and levamlodipine

42
Q

Brand name of Ranolazine

A

Ranexa

43
Q

Brand name of Trimetazidine

A

•Vestar
• Vastarel

44
Q

Inhibits ketoacyl-CoA thiolase, the key enzyme in the beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acid metabolism.

A

Trimetazidine

45
Q

The effect of this drug is the reduction of fatty acid oxidation evokes compensatory increase in glucose metabolism. Glucose metabolism reduces oxygen consumption by 20%.

A

Trimetazidine

46
Q

Blocks the pathological activation or prolongation of the late inward sodium current (INa-L) in heart cells that leads to excessive intracellular sodium and calcium accumulation. Increase in intracellular calcium can lead to mechanical dysfunction, abnormal contraction and relaxation, electrical instability, afterdepolarizations, and arrhythmia.

A

Ranolazine

47
Q

It has shown to increases exercise capacity in patients with angina resulting to fewer anginal symptoms and decreased need for NTG use.

A

Ranolazine
