Q

Tx for tricuspide stenosis

A

diuretics - torsemide and spironolactone (for ascites)

balloon valvotomy, open commissurotomy, bioprosthetic valve (mechanical clots with low flow velocity)

Q

high pressure vs. low pressure pulmonic regurgitation***

A

high P - prolonged RV systole with split S2, from pulmonary HTN - graham steel

low P - very little murmur, trauma, dilated annulus, carcinoid plaque, bicuspid valve

Q

mitral stenosis backs up to lungs - results in pulmonary insufficiency

A

graham steel murmur

20
Q

most common cause of tricuspid stenosis

A

carcinoid

21
Q

significant valve gradient

A

> 5mmHg - mean right atrial vs. right ventricular pressure

22
Q

Tx high P pulmonic regurg

A

treat pulmonary HTN

23
Q

Tx low P pulmonic regurg

A

watchful expectancy

24
Q

early diastolic sound at mitral area

A

mitral stenosis

loud M1

exertional dyspnea, orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea

25
Q

hockey stick of mitral valve

A

mitral stenosis

26
Q

straight left heart border

A

mitral stenosis

27
Q

negative P wave in V1 and RAD on EKG

A

mitral stenosis

28
Q

thickened immobile leaflets in mitral stenosis

A

rheumatic fever

29
Q

annular calcium deposits in mitral stenosis

A

degenerative

30
Q

moderate mitral stenosis

A

early pulmonary edema

31
Q

severe mitral stenosis

A

pulmonary HTN and right side CHF

32
Q

rumbling diastolic murmur

A

in mitral stenosis

33
Q

valvuloplasty

A

balloon inflated to open stiff valve

34
Q

Tx of mitral stenosis

A

based on ECHO eval scoring

<8 - valvuloplasty
8-10 - mechanical or bioprosthetic valve

35
Q

EKG for mitral regurg

A

left atrial and ventricular enlargement

36
Q

mitral regurg in marfans

A

defective chordae

37
Q

mitral regurg in MI

A

defective papillary muscles

38
Q

mitral regurg in endocarditis

A

defective leaflets

39
Q

mitral regurg in cardiomyopathy

A

defective annulus

40
Q

volume in mitral regurg

A

increased preload
decreased afterload

enlarged LV with increased EF

eventually EF drops when LV fails

41
Q

BNP

A

LV dysfunction

42
Q

hand grip and squatting

A

increased afterload

mitral regurg louder

43
Q

amyl nitrate and valsalva

A

decreased intensity of mitrla regurg

44
Q

EKG for mitral regurg

A

LVH, LAH, or AF

45
Q

sudden onset mitral regurg

A

non-dilated

46
Q

chronic mitral regurg

A

dilated left atria
