Angina treatment ladder

A

aspirin, statin, GTN PRN
1. b blocker + Ca channel blocker
if b blocker is contraindicated use Ca blocker as mono therapy.
2. still symptomatic add verapamil or diltiazem
3. add long acting nitrate (Ivabradine or nicorandil)

44
Q

define recurrent AF

A

2 or more episodes
paroxysmal = self terminating, less than 7 days
persistent = more than 7 days

45
Q

describe rate control in AF, when is rate control 1st treatment option

A

b-blocker, diltiazem, combination therapy, digoxin

rate first if over 65 or IHD history

46
Q

drugs used for rhythm control in AF, when is rhythm control first line

A

amiodarone
flecanide (if no HD)
rhythm control first in under 65 years, 1st presentation of AF

47
Q

describe Heart block type 1

A

pr interval longer than 0.2secs

48
Q

describe Heart block type 2 (both types

A

Mobitz 1 - progressive elongation until a QRS drop

Mobitz 2 - PR interval unaffected, QRS does not always follow p wave

49
Q

describe 3rd degree heart block
