what kind of chest pain can radiate, so we always give famotidine upon ED chest pain?
gastric
waht kind of chest pain changes upon palpatory status
musculoskeletal
what kind of chest pain is nonreproducable, sometimes radiates to r epigastric area/jaw
cardiac
STEMis are extra dangerous because the ekg shows us that what part of the heart is damaged?
ventricles
nonstemis are partial ________ of coronary arteries while stemis are complete
occlusionn
ischemia is decreased perfusion, while nstemi is actual _______ of the muscle
necrosis
nstemi frequently presents with a _________ ST segment
depressed
t/f : trops are elevated in demand ischemia
true
what drug in mona dilates blood vessels
nitro
perfusion involves 3 ps; pu——- pi—— pl——-
pumps pipes plasma
preload is aka
fluid volume
preload is before what enders into the _____
svc
to decrease preload we use what
diuretics
we use crystalloids, colloids, PRBCs, isotonic solutions like lactated ringers and ns to increase what?
preload
the strength of the heart is called
contractility
the hearts contractility is cued by how much it is
stretched
a further stretched out diastole means the next constriction will be more/less powerful
more
digoxin, dobutamine, and dopamine are all given to increase what
contractility
meds that help the heart beat better (better contractility)
positive inotrope
meds that control the rate of the heart
chronotrope
pressure in aorta/venous system
afterload
vasopressor decrease CO (epinephrine and NE) do what?
increase afterload
vasodilators increase CO (nitroprusside and nitrates) do what
decrease afterload
normal trop level if not in ischemic distress
under .04
an ekg has multiple leads to show different _______ of the heart electrical activity
angles
if an EKG shows a stemi, what do we go straight to
cath lab
the p wave of an ekg shows what
atria
the qrs of an ekg shows what
ventricles
the t wave of an ekg shows what
repolarization
what do we use to see the ejection fraction of the heart
echo
normal EF
55-70
under what % EF is heart failure
40
what do we have to hold when doing a stress test
beta blockers
when doing the exercise portion of a stress test we make them treadmill while what is on them to see if reproducable pain
ekg
nuclear imaging for resting stress test : pt is NPO< then injected with
nucleotides
resting portion of the stress test makes sure that there is enough blood getting to the heart even when the blood is shunted to the
gut
dr inserts a wire and a balloon to open up plaque, most of the time a stent is placed
angioplasty
before injecting this chekc BUN, CKD because _________ is nephrotoxic
contrast
coronary angioplasty with stenting aka
pci
post cath care includes checking teh ________ of where the cath originally entered and if its bleedin
perfusion
if theres any bleeding/bruising from a cath insertion spot use p_________ and a towel/s________
pressure sandbag
if we enter. a cath thru femoral artery we should after check what pulses/ put pulse ox where
pedal toe
we need to be bedrest ofr how many hrs after cath/ immobilize
4
procedure that starts with splitting the sternum, putting pt on ecmo bypass, then taking a leg or a mammary vein to bypass
cabg
which side HF backs up into lungs
left
hwich side HF backs up into body (neck/abdomen/hips/legs)
right
which side hf presents with edema, hepatomegaly, ascietes, anorexia and vomiting, weakness, weight gain, jvd
right
which side hf presents with dyspnea, cough, crackles, orthopnea, nocturnal dypsnea
left
chf is overload of waht
fluid
in what kind of HF chamers are too thin/weak to pump bc muscle is damaged
systolic
in what kind of HF vent wall is too thick and so cant fill/contract enough blood volume? (hypertrophy)
diastolic
how do we diagnose HF
echo
lab value that is assoc w fluid overload bc the heart releases it when it is stressed
BNP
common causes of heart failure could be genetic, damage to tissue (like an ____), or things that would lead to weak pump or effect filling like vascular disase or drugs
MI
left sided HF would be pulm edema, ________ congestion (whiteout cxr)
vascular
sob that changes positionally, normally from hf or copd
orthopnea
right side HF findings: J___, LE edema (r/o dvt w ultrasound), and venous i________ or stasis
jvd insufficency
in venous insufficiency _____ don’t work so we use SCDs and wraps and socks
valves
beta blockers (metoprolol/carvedilol) inhibit SNS, slowing heart, lowering BP- this means they in/decrease BOTH pre load and afterload
decrease
HF pts have lower or higher bp?
lower
we keep bp and hr low so that the heart can rest and work more e_________ when it does actually beat
efficently
we use ________ to decrease preload in a pt with major 3rd spacing edema
diuretics
lasix and furosemide are not like ________ sparing aldactone, so we have to give them this PO/iv
potassium
if pts are 3rd spaced, diuretics draw from iv not interstitial space. how do we get fluid back to iv?
