What is a normal ABI and how do you take it
normal ranges from 0.95-1.12

< Severe
What does it mean if the ABI is positive
If ABI is <1.15 -1.00 that is normal if it is 1.12 or more than it is either due to failure of occluding or arterial disease`

LDL
>160 low risk
Triglycerides
<165 desirable
LDL/ HDL Ration

ST Segment Depression
Zone of Injury
Name the ECG Finding

ST Segment Depression
ANgina or ischemia
Q wave can differentiate between transmural (full thick MI) vs nontransmural
True
With an anterior MI
will have Lower conductive issues and is due to left anterior descending
Lateral MI
Circumflex Artery will cause ventricular FOCI
Inferior MI
Upper conduction abnormalities and R ventricular issues due to RCA
What will impaired ventricle tests show
Decrease - EF, stroke volume, CO

Increased - End diastolic volume pressure
Right Heart Failure
Inability of the R ventricle to pump blood into the lungs

Blood is not adequetly returned from the systemic circ

Due to failure of R ventricle you will see increase in pressure in pulm arteries
Right Heart Failure Symptoms
Increase in Pulm Artery Pressure

Peripheral Edema

Anorexia

Nausea
Left Heart Failure
Failure of the Heart to pump OUT to systemic System

Will see increases in end ventricular diastolic pressure and left atrial pressures including

Pulmonary Edema and artery pressures increase

Pulmonary Signs - cough, dyspnea, orthopena
Mainstay treatment for CHF
Digitalis - Increase in contractility without increase in HR (actually decreases
Signs of PVD
Pulses - Diminished or Absent
Color - Pale on elevation/ Rubor Dependent

Early Stages - patient exhibits intermittent claud. Pain bearing aching, crmamping, tightness

LAte - ischemia and rest pain, ulceration anf gangrene as wel as tophic changes
PVD involves small arteries T/F
