valvular heart disease Flashcards
TAVR and type of anesthesia
aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis (GA or MAC)
TAVR and SAPIAN valve
requires balloon valvuloplasty
need for rapid ventricular pacing (160-200BPM)
apnea during deployment
pacing pads in case pacing goes unwell
valve in valve (another valve) if deployment doesn’t go great
TAVR and core valve
if core valve is used, dont need valvuloplasty or rapid ventricular pacing
if it doesn’t deploy properly, retrieve and re deploy
best place to listen for aortic stenosis
A
2nd ICS at right sternal border
s1 and where to listen
C (tricuspid area) or D (mitral area)
left of sternal border at 4th ICS (apex) or
mid clavicular line on left at 5th ICS (apex)
closure of mitral and tricuspid valves, end of LV filling and beginning of isovolumic contraction
s2 and where to listen
A (aortic) or B (pulmonic area)
right or left sternal border at 2nd ICS
closure of pulmonic and aortic valves
beginning of diastole, onset of isovolumic relaxation
s3
suggests flaccid and inelastic heart- think HF
s4
caused by atrial systole, heart before s1, think poor compliance
what happens to EF with concentric hypertrophy
normal
what happens to EF with eccentric hypertrophy
reduced
replication of sarcomeres with concentric hypertrophy are in
parallel
replication of sarcomeres with eccentric hypertrophy are in
series
normal aortic valve orifice
2.5-3.5cm^2
severe aortic stenosis aortic valve orifice
<0.8cm^2
etiologies of aortic stenosis (3)
bicuspid aortic valve and calcification of valve leaflets
rheumatic fever
infective endocarditis
what does this pressure volume loop indicate?
aortic stenosis
PV loop height increases
EDV and ESV also increase (shift to the right)
