Mg >2
QH: coronary arteries fill durring _______.
diastole
OCP, Diuretics and Testosterone have what effect on LDL and HDL?
Increase LDL, decrease HDL
How does Nitroglycerine decrease angina?
It vasodilates, thereby decreasing preload and thus decreasing cardiac output
A pt has chest pain that is relieved by nitroglycerine, is this angina?
No, nitro will relieve cp d/t GERD and esophageal spasm
A pt has chest pain d/t true angina, what is the next step?
Cath, to assess the need for PTCA
Whats the diff btw myalgias and myositis? which one is a possible s/e of statin use?
Myalgias: muscle pain
Myositis: is assoc w/ statins: muscle inflammation with incr CPK
What do you expect to see on an EKG in a pt with worsening angia that occurs at rest? What are the TX options?
Unstable angina --> ST depression

TX options: ASA, clopidogril, GP2a3b, Heparin, O2, Nitro, B-blkers
A post menopausal female comes in c/o an elephant on her chest, what do you expect to see on EKG?
ST elevation and New Left BBB = MI
What does every acute MI pt get?
MONA + BB

Morphine, O2, Nitro, Asa, Beta-blker
What should every post- MI pt be on?
ASA, Beta-blker, ACE or ARB
clopidogril if stented
statin to stabilize plaque
EKG shows PR interval greater than 1 big block
1st degree heart block
EKG shows PR interval gets longer, longer and drops a beat
Wenckeback, 2nd degree type 1

"one-ckebach"
Story Mnemonic for heart blocks
1: pedro comes home late every night
2.1: pedro comes home later and later each night and some nights he doesnt come home at all
2.2: pedro comes home on time every night, but misses a night every once in a while
3: pedro is divorced
Consistant PR interval with random dropped beats
2nd degree type 2
What is the diff btw PVCs and Vtach?
>3 PVCs in a row is Vtach
NS: in a pt with atrial fib, what needs to be done before cardioversion?
a TEE to r/o mural thrombus formation
S4 heart sounds are seen with _____ while S3 heart sounds are seen in _______
S4: Stiffened ventricles, aortic stenosis, LVH

S3: dilated ventricles, CHF, Mitral regurg, MI
The Valsalva maneuver increases ______ murmur and decreases _______ murmur
Aortic Stenosis is decreased with valsalva b/c it increases afterload

Spironolactone
Holosytolic murmur radiating from the apex to axilla with S3 and mid-systolic click
Mitral Regurg d/t Mitral valve prolapse
Loud S1, opening snap after S2, and early diastolic rumble
Mitral stenosis
