Valvular HD Flashcards
VHD
Main two types
- Congenital
- Acquired
VHD
S1
Mitral and tricuspid closure
VHD
S2
aortic and pulmonary V closure
VHD
Apex beat
5th ICS just medial to the midclavicular line
VHD
Peds murmurs heard above the nipple line
ejection systolic
VHD
peds murmurs heard below the nipple line
Pansystolic
VHD
Mitral valve normal size
4-6 cm2
VHD
Mitral stenosis PC
- SOB
- Orthopnea
- PND
VHD
Pulse in MS
irregularly irregular due to AF
VHD
JVP in MS
prominent “a” wave if complicated by Pulm HTN
VHD
Palpation in MS
tapping apex, parasternal heave
VHD
Auscultation findings in MS
- Loud S1
- Opening snap
- Rumbling low- pitched mid diastolic murmur with presystolic accentuation
- Best heard in mitral area w expiration and left lateral position
- Pulm HTN - Loud P2
VHD
S1 in MS
Loud
VHD
Murmur in MS
rumbling low pitched mid diastolic murmur w presystolic accentuation
VHD
murmur is MS is heard on
mitral area with expiration on left lateral position
VHD
Signs of Pulm HTN
- Parasternal heave
- Loud palpable P2
VHD
DDs of MS
- Carey coombs Murmur in acute rheumatic carditis
- Austin flint murmur in severe AR
- Atrial myxoma
VHD
whats a carey coombs murmur
mitral V is swollen
VHD
Atrial myxoma
a tumor growing through the mitral valve
VHD
main cause of MS
Rheumatic fever
VHD
MS is mostly affected among
Females> males
VHD
severe stenosed MS
<1 cm2
VHD
Complications of MS
- A fib
- Pulm edema
- IE
- Stroke ( AF can form thrombus)
VHD
Ix of MS
- ECG
- 2D echo
- CXR
VHD
ECG on MS
P mitrale ( bifid P wave)
VHD
Ix of choice in Dx MS
2D echo
VHD
CXR on MS
small heart w an enlarged L/ atrium
VHD
Mx of MS
- Mx A fib
- interventional Mx
VHD
Interventional Mx of MS
- PTMC ( Percutaneous transluminal mitral commisurectomy)
- Valvotomy
- Valve replacement ( rarely)
VHD
When is PTMC considered in MS
- isolated MS
- Minimal MR
- L/atrium free of thrombus
- MV mobile and pliable
