2. EKG change: st elevation, T inversion 3. Enzymes: CK-MB, Troponin I |
|
what are the labs to draw for MI? what is fast, what lasts longer
|
1. CKMB- released really fast! peak at 24 hrs, normal by 72
2. Troponin I- remain elevated for 4-7 days |
|
if a guys had an MI 3 days ago will you look at CK MB or cTnI

you wont survive another
four things with poor outcome female, old, DM, previous MI |
|
what is the most common trpe of rupture, when is it most likely to happen after an MI
|
vent free wall? leads to hemapericardium and tampanode
**if you dont have hypertrophy you will more likely rupture, not a nice thick wall **rupture will occur at 3-7 days, macro have come in and eaten the junk out |
|
what happens whn papillary mm rupture
|
mitral regurg
**rupture will occur at about 3-7 days, macro have some in and cleard the junk out and make it weak |

what are the 4 things that predispose us to cor pulmonale
|
disease of lung tissue itself
disease of pulm vessels disorders the affect chest movement dirorders that cause pulm arterial constriction |
|
what are some things that cause chronic pulmonary hypertensive disease
|
COPD
Emphysema Chronic Bronchitis **in this case the increased pressure in the lungs will cause R vent hypertrophy with dilation if the heart decompensates |
|
Which of the following problems in not correctly matched
with it’s corresponding heart morphology – Pressure overloaded ventricles – concentric hypertrophy – Volume overloaded ventricles – ventricular dilation – Heart hypertrophy – hyperplasia of myocytes – Systemic hypertensive heart disease – ventricular dilation – Systemic hypertensive heart diseases – left atrium dilation |

|
what are 2 causes of regurgitation
|
1. Damage to supporting structure/ Functional: valve isnt closing bc the ventricle is dilated

The Dallas County Medical Examiner’s office calls to
inform you that they are investigating the sudden deathof one of your patients. The patient in question was a 55 year old black woman who had been followed for many years in the hypertension clinic. Work‐up at various times had revealed no evidence of renal disease or endocrine abnormalities. On a recent office visit, her BP was measured as 190/10 A few months ago, she was briefly admitted to a hospital after she awakened at night feeling short of breath. Review of hospital notes from that admission shows that she had mild ankle edema, basilar rales and hepatomegaly on initial evaluation. A ches x‐ray showed cardiomegaly and slight atrial enlargement. An EKG confirmed left ventricular hypertrophy Laboratory studies y at that time suggested slight hepatic damage; serial cardiac serum markers were negative for MI, Over the last few years, there had been a steady rise in her serum BUN and creatinine. The medical examiner relates that the patient complained of sudden, severe, sharp chest pain and collapsed at her husband’s softball gameShe was taken to a hospital, where she was noted to be hypotensive with unequal pulses. A chest x‐ray revealed a left pleural effusion and a widened mediastinum. An autopsy is being done to determine whether she died from some catastrophic vascular event related to her hypertension. We see hyperplastic arteriolosclerosis, some hyaline arteriolosclerosis, concentric LV hypertrophy and ultimatly we see... |
aortic dissection
HTN with hyperplastic arteriolosclerosis Abd Aneurysm would be with artherosclerosis |

70 year old man was brought to the hospital for
evaluation of chest pain. He described feeling weak and dizzy after a walk around the block the morning of his admission. This episode of dizziness was followed by 10‐15 minutes of chest pain that quickly resolved when he rested. He also described a two month history of similar but shorter episodes of chest pain and dizziness after working in his yard. He had been told several years ago that he had a slight heart murmur, but had not been evaluated further.Physical signs and auscultation suggested aortic valve narrowing. His lungs were clear to auscultation. A chest radiograph showed an enlarged heart and a vague area of calcification at the base of the heart in the region of the aortic valve. Cardiac enzymes and other lab tests were normal. An EKG showed atrial fibrillation and LVH. His valve was replaced and he did well for several years. He than began to have signs and symptoms of aortic regurgitation. |

A ten year old child was brought to a pediatrician
for a mild sore throat. The pediatrician noticed some redness, swabbed the throat, tested for group A Streptococci in the office, sent the blood for anti‐streptolysis O titer, and prescribed treatment. Three weeks later the child returned with fever, painful swelling of the knee joints followed by pain and swelling of the elbow joints. The physical exam revealed a pericardial friction rub and a murmur suggestive of mitral regurgitation. The anti‐streptolysin O titer was elevated over the previous value.The patient recovered and did well over the next several decades. In her thirties the patent began to have dyspnea on exertion, which slowly increased in severity in her forties. In the months prior to her initial hospital admission she had awakened feeling short of breath. There was one fainting spell followed by and episode with temporary loss of vision in one eye. On admission to the hospital she was very short of breath and had coughed up some blood‐tinged sputum. The physical exam and other lab tests suggested narrowin of the mitral valve orifice.Atrial fibrillation was present. X‐ray of the chest showed an enlarged left atrium and pulmonary edema. Cardiac surgery was offered but she refused. She was treated medically for several days and discharged feeling better but with some residual limitation of cardiac function. The week before her second admission she went to a dentist because of tooth pain and underwent a dental extraction. She returned to the hospital with high spiking fevers and overt signs and symptoms of heart failure |
