  1. CARDIOLOGY REVIEW GROUP 2: Lauren Montemayor Ivanna Sorych Dharti Patel Gabriela Almeida Mark Dunbar Mike Kayal Obaid Ahmad Joon Jun

  2. Anatomy of the Heart

  3. Cardiac Terminology • Preload: amount of blood heart must pump with each beat largely determined by venous return to the heart and the stretch of muscle fibers. • Afterload: the pressure the heart must generate to move blood into the aorta. • Pulse pressure: the difference between the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure. • Mean arterial pressure: the average pressure in arterial system during ventricular contraction and relaxation. This is a good indicator of tissue of profusion.

  4. Cardiac Terminology • Cardiac Output: the amount of blood the heart pumps each minute. • Maximal Cardiac output is = Maximal Heart Rate X Stroke volume • Stroke Volume: the volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle with each beat.

  5. Myocarditis

Myocarditis and Cardiomyopathies • A man presents with flu like symptoms and chest pain. • PE reveals Soft S1, Mitral Regurg and S3 & S4 present. • CXR reveals Pulmonary Venous Markings and enlarged heart; • Transvenous endomyocardial biopsy reveals Cocksackie B virus. • EKG reveals Bi-Basalar Rales. • Tests show an increase in all Cardiac Enzymes. • Diagnosis? • Myocarditis

  7. Myocarditis and Cardiomyopathies • An Alcoholic with a history of Cocaine abuse presents c/o SOB, DOE, Orthopnea indicating that he has already had a heart transplant. • PE reveals Mitral and Tricuspid Regurgitation Murmurs. • The ECHO cardiogram reveals Dilated Chambers and Thin Walls. • Diagnosis? • Dilated Cardiomyopathy • Treatment? • ACE Inhibitors – use 1st, 31% reduction in mortality by using • Digitalis – use

  8. Myocarditis and Cardiomyopathies • A 25 year old male collapses of SOB and DOE playing basketball, but still alive. • PE reveals Heaves and Lifts over PMI and Mitral Regurg Murmur. • CXR reveals enlarged heart. • Echo reveals Thick Walls with Small Chambers. • Diagnosis? • Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy; • aka: IHSS, Idiopathic Hypertrophic Subaortic Stenosis • Treatment? • Medical: Beta-Blockers & Calcium Channel Blockers • Surgical: Transaortic Ventriculomyotomy

  9. Hypotension & Shock

  10. Myocarditis and Cardiomyopathies • A 40 year old woman presents with symptoms of congestion, edema, SOB, DOE. • PE reveals JVD, S3, Gallops, Mitral and Tricuspid Regurg but NO Cardiomegaly. • CXR reveals Atrial enlargement. • Echocardiogram reveals Thick Walls with Slightly Enlarged Ventricles and some Dilation of the Aorta. • Biopsy reveals either Sarcoidosis, Amyloidosis or Hemochromatosis. • Diagnosis? • Restrictive Cardiomyopathy • Treatment for above patient? • Not a lot to do. – Do not give any medicine. Only Tx. is Transplant.

  11. Cardiomyopathies • A pt comes in with a complaint of chest pain for about a week now. Pt admits using multiple pillows at night for elevation which relieves the chest pain. The pt has a fever of 101. ECG findings indicate PR depression. What is the BEST diagnosis for the above clinical findings? • (a) Myocardial infarct • (b) Myocarditis • (c) Pericardial effusion • (d) Acute pericarditis Explanation: PR depression is a specific finding of an acute pericarditis.

  13. Cardiomyopathies • Myocarditis can cause all of the following except: • (a) shortness of breath • (b) chest pain • (c) sudden death • (d) bradycardia

  14. Hypotension & Shock • Shock is a failure of blood circulation that can happen quickly such as in a gunshot wound or over a period of days as in the case of vomiting or diarrhea for days. In both cases, Organ Dysfunction may result.

  15. Hypotension & Shock • Name 4 areas of the body where life-threatening hemorrhage may occur: • Thighs • Chest • Abdomen • Pelvis • Which two organs when diseased radiate painfully to the back? • Pancreas • Aorta

  16. Hypotension & Shock • Woman presents with cool, clammy, mottled hands, anxious with dizziness, weak pulse and no bowel sounds and has bulimia saying that yesterday, after gagging herself and throwing up her big meal she vomited blood for the first time in her life. • Diagnosis? • Mallory Weiss Syndrome – Tear of LES at GI Junction • What type of shock is this woman at risk for? • Hypovolemic Shock due to GI Bleed or Internal bleed.

  17. Hypotension & Shock • Other Risk Factors for Hypovolemic Shock include: • Borhaave’s Syndrome • Hemophilia • Aortic Aneurism • Vaginal Bleed • Hemorrhage • Burns • Stab wounds • What is the treatment for the Hypovolemic Shock? • Vasopressin and Saline

  18. Hypotension & Shock • A man presents with Chest Pain, (a diabetic may not have pain), Sweating and Nausea and Vomiting. • He also shows a positive Levine Sign and his EKG shows ST elevation. • Diagnosis? • Acute MI, (if ST was depressed – Ischemia) • Most commonly after surviving an acute MI, the heart may have a decrease in function where cardiac output is lowered and over 40% of the left ventricular muscle dies. • What is this? • Cardiogenic Shock

  19. Hypotension & Shock • Cardiogenic Shock results in either of 2 conditions: Myocardial Stunning or Hibernating Myocardium. • In the case of Myocardial Stunning, if Ionotropes are given, the stunned tissue will heal itself and regenerate. • In the case of Hibernating Myocardium, the ischemia will reverse after the tissue has revascularized. • Treatment: • Morphine, Oxygen, Nitrogen and Antiplatelets given simultaneously

  20. Hypotension & Shock • Name 4 causes of Obstructive Shock and their treatments: • Pericardial Tamponade – Pericardial Effusion • Beck’s Triad: JVD, Hypotension, Muffled Heart Sounds • Treatment: Pericardialcentesis – stab the heart • Tension Pneumothorax • This pushes on the heart and reduces its output • Treatment: Needle Decompression • Pulmonary Embolism • DVT is the MCC • Treatment: Heparin • Aortic Dissection • Ripping tearing pain that radiates to back • Treatment: Surgery • The general treatment for Obstructive Shock is: • Oxygen, IV fluids, Ionotropes (Epinephrine, Norepinephrine).

  21. Hypotension & Shock • A man, with a history of eating shellfish developed an allergic reaction, he went outside to vomit and was mugged and hit by a baseball bat to his head, fell to the ground. • He presents with increased pulse pressure, decreased diastolic blood pressure, high cardiac output, warm extremities, (not clammy) and good capillary refill. • Diagnosis? • Distributive Shock – blood going to the wrong place and decreased vasomotor tone.

  22. Cardio Rx • DOC for pregnant women with HTN? Methyldopa. • Methyldopa (A2 agonist) reduces the SNS outflow from brainstem to heart, but severe rebound HTN can occur so taper slowly over 1-2 weeks. • DOC for HTN pt. after LSM failed to work in stage 1 HTN? • Thiazide diuretics. HCTZ, Chlorthalidone. • DOC after ACE I fails to work?ARB. • ADR for ACE I and ARBs? • Cough, angioedema, Hyper K+. CI in renal stenosis, failure.

  23. Cardio Rx • CCB work better on arteriole smooth muscle by blocking Ca++ channel ions. This relaxes vascular smooth muscle, decreases PVR, BP. • Which drugs should not be combined b/c of severe bradycardia, and hypotension? • CCB and B blockers. • DOC for pt. w/ BPH, HTN and hyperlipidemia? • A1 blockers “azosin”

  29. Heart Murmurs

  30. Heart Murmurs • A mid or late systolic murmur that may be preceded by a systolic click describes this valvular abnormality: • (a) aortic stenosis • (b) mitral valve prolapse • (c) aortic regurgitation • (d) mitral valve stenosis • Explanation: Mitral valve prolapse may be preceded by a systolic click. It usually occurs in mid or late systole and lasts until the beginning of the S2.

  31. Heart Murmurs • A systolic crescendo-decrescendo murmur most likely is: • (a) aortic stenosis • (b) mitral valve prolapse • (c) mitral stenosis • (d) aortic regurgitation • Explanation: A systolic crescendo-decrescendo murmur (one that rises in intensity and then falls) is heart with aortic stenosis. This type of murmur may also be heard with an innocent flow of murmur.

  32. Heart Murmurs • An S4 may be found in all of the following conditions EXCEPT: • (a) aortic stenosis • (b) atrial fibrillation • (c) cardiomyopathy • (d) hypertensive heart disease • Explanation: S4 is an atrial sound occurring just before S1. It is auscultated best with the bell of stethoscope. It occurs most commonly because of increased resistance to ventricular filling following an atrial contraction. This increased resistance is due to the decreased compliance or stiffness of the myocardium of the ventricle. S4 is never heard in the absence of atrial contraction, so it will never exist with atrial fibrillation.

  33. Heart Murmurs • A 40 year old male presents with chest pain and a low-grade fever. When the patient’s chest is auscultated, a high-pitched murmur is noted when the patient is asked to lean forward. The most likely cause of this murmur is: • (a) pericardial friction rub associated with pericarditis • (b) obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy • (c) patent ductus arterious • (d) mtral valve prolapse • Explanation: A pericardial friction rub is best ascultated when the patient leans forward an inhales. It is a scratchy murmur heard during diastole and systole.

  34. Peripheral Vascular Disease

  35. Peripheral Vascular Disease • Which arterial disease most commonly presents with pain, pallor, polar, paresthesia, paralysis, pulselessness and can lead to cyanosis and necrosis? • Acute Arterial Occlusion • Buerger’s Disease • Deep Venous Thrombosis • Chronic venous insufficiency

  36. Peripheral Vascular Disease • Thromboangitis Obliterans (Buerger’s Disease) is idiopathic and characterized by chronic ulcers, superficial nodules, Reynaud's phenomenon, pain and gangrene requires the patient to: • Stop EtOH intake • Stop smoking • Stop walking • None of the above

  37. Peripheral Vascular Disease • Virchow’s Triad that is assosiated with Deep Venous Thrombosis includes all of the above except: • Venous stasis • Hypercoagulable state • Endothelial injury • Warm extremities

  38. Peripheral Vascular Disease • Which of the following is NOT a risk factor for Chronic Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease? • Diabetes • Cigarette smoking • Daily Exercising • Age • CAD

  40. Coronary Artery Disease

  41. Coronary Artery disease • Coronary arterial disease, or atherosclerosis, is the accumulation of lipid deposits within the walls of coronary arteries resulting in obstruction and ischemia of myocardial cells.

  42. CAD • 1- What is a collection of foam cells and the earliest pathologic lesion of atherosclerosis? • Fatty streak • 2- What are some major risk factors of CAD? • Increasing age • Tobacco use • Hypertension (> 140/ 90) • Diabetes mellitus • Hypercholesterolemia/ hyperglyceridemia • Elevated lipoprotein • Obesity • Family History of Premature CAD
