A

an evaluation is done in the office, there is a cost, and you get a 1:1 experience, so you can build rapport
a screen is mass participation, free or a reduced cost, low anxiety and may be like performance testing

20
Q

what is sudden cardiac death

A

electrical disturbances in the heart, causing arrest or arrhythmia’s

21
Q

do you need trauma for sudden cardiac death, and it is with or without warning

A

no, and without warning

22
Q

what are some ways to detect it

A

prodromal signs, like chest pain, dyspnea, exercise intolerance and history of symptoms.

23
Q

how quickly can death occur

A

within 1 hour

24
Q

what gender and what race are more likely to die of sudden cardiac death

A

males, over females

blacks over whites

25
Q

what are the most common sports to die of sudden cardiac death

A

mens basketball, soccer then football

26
Q

there are 4 types of cardiac death, what are they

A

congenital structurally abnormal heart
acquired structurally abnormal heart
congenital structurally normal heart
acquired structurally normal heart.

27
Q

under the age of 40, what are the reasons for people to die of sudden cardiac death

A

hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) 33-41%
coronary artery anomalies 16%
commotio cordis 9%
myocarditis 5%

28
Q

what is hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

A

affects 1 in 500, it is the overgrowth of the heart, and it does not pump efficiently

29
Q

HCM and genetics

A

inherited autosomal dominant gene, with over 100 different genetic defects that can lead to this.
60% of people have affected first degree relative

30
Q

what is marfans syndrome

A

fibrillin gene defect, that alters connective tissues in the body and can lead to a ruptured aortic aneurysm

31
Q

what are the skeletal components of marfans

A

tall and thin, arm span is greater than height, pectus excavated and joint hyper mobility, and scoliosis

32
Q

what are the ocular components of marfans

A
myopia (near sided and possibly color blind)
chromic myopia
ectopic lentis (upward)
retinal detachment
hypoplasia of dilator muscle 
flat cornea
33
Q

coronary artery anomalies

A

an abnormal artery will be compressed as the ascending aorta dilates with exercise, which limits the blood flow to the heart, and hypo-perfusion of the myocardium

34
Q

what is the primary cause of death with coronary artery anomalies

A

hypo perfusion

35
Q

what are some early prodromal signs of coronary artery anomalies

A

fatigue, exercise induced syncope and chest pain, kinda looks like an MI

36
Q

what is commotio cordis

A

anatomically normal heart, but there is a blow to the chest, that causes a disturbance in the timing of the heart

37
Q

what gender and what age is more affected by commotion cordis

A

males, and 13.6 years old (developing heart)

38
Q

what percentages of commotio cordis comes from blow from a projectile vs hit from another player

A

80% projectile,

20% player

39
Q

what is myocarditis

A

inflammatory process of the myocardium, from a virus (echovirus, adenovirus or influenza)

40
Q

what are some prodromal signs of myocarditis

A

dyspnea, orthopnea, exercise intolerance, tachycardia, diarrhea, malaise, myalgia

41

8: anyone in family with heart problem
9: family died sudden death before age 50

42
