8. Myocardium Anterior Posterior
9. Cardiac Cycle Passive Filling – preload
Atrial contraction – Aortic & Pulmonic semilunar valves close – S2
Isovolumetric ventricular contraction – all
valves closed
Ejection – ventricular systole – Mitral & Tricuspid valves close – S1 - afterload
Isovolumetric ventricular relaxation – all valves closed
10. Cardiac Cycle Phases
11. Heart Sounds & Stethoscope Placement
12. Coronary Arterial System
13. Physiology: Oxygen Supply to the Cardiac Muscle during the Cardiac Cycle
Coronary artery oxygen deficit
during ventricular contraction & ejection (systole)
Coronary artery filling
during ventricular filling (diastole)
What is the impact of heart rate on coronary artery filling?
14. Oxygen Supply to the Cardiac Muscle during the Cardiac Cycle
The actual time available for diastole shortens significantly as the heart rate increase
% of a Minute Heart Rate
70% 60
50% 120
33% 188
Results: Less time for ventricular filling & coronary artery filling + as HR increases, increased oxygen is needed each minute to eject the same volume of blood.
Stroke volume: volume ejected in one heart beat
Cardiac Output: volume ejected in one minute
Cardiac Output = Stroke Volume x Heart Rate
15. Factors Determining Myocardial Oxygen Needs Decreased Oxygen Supply:
Noncardiac: Anemia, hypoxemia, pneumonia, asthma, COPD, low blood volume
Cardiac: Arrhythmias/dysrhythmias, congestive heart failure (CHF), coronary artery spasm, coronary artery thrombosis, valve disorders
Increased Oxygen Demand or Consumption:
Noncardiac: anxiety, cocaine use, hypertension, hyperthermia, hyperthyroidism, physical exertion
Cardiac: aortic stenosis, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, hypertension, tachycardia

19. Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Pathophysiology ASHD, IHD, CVHD = CAD
AHA
1.1 mil Americans will have an MI in 2003
460,000 will die
About half of those deaths occur within 1 hour of the start of symptoms and before the person reaches the hospital.
Major cause: Atherosclerosis—focal deposit of cholesterol & lipids
20. CAD – Risk Factors Unmodifiable: Age, Gender, Ethnicity, Genetic predisposition/family history
Modifiable Major: Dyslipidemia--Elevated serum lipids*, hypertension*, cigarette smoking, obesity—visceral/central obesity
Modifiable Contributing: Diabetes Mellitus*,
stressful lifestyle
* may have genetic predisposition
21. CAD – Risk Factors Metabolic Syndrome:
Insulin Resistance
Hyperglycemia >110mg/dL
Hypertension - > 130/85
Increased triglycerides >110mg/dL
Decrease HDL <40 men; < 50 women
Central Obesity
men: waist > 40” women: waist > 35”
22. Risk Factors One of the Major Modifiable
Physical Inactivity
23. Types of Plasma Lipoproteins HDL –
Contain more protein and less lipid
Carry lipids away from arteries to liver for metabolism
This process prevents lipid accumulation within arterial walls
Higher levels are desirable
LDL –
Contain more lipids than any other lipoproteins
Affinity for arterial walls
Increased levels correlate closely with an increased
incidence of atherosclerosis
Lower levels are desirable
VLDL
Contain of triglycerides
Correlation with heart disease is uncertain
24. Plasma Lipoproteins
25. Atherosclerosis Elevated serum lipids
Cholesterol > 200mg/dl
Triglyceride > 200mg/dl
HDL
< 35 mg/dl – major risk
45-59 mg/dl – average risk
> 60 mg/dl – negative risk
LDL
< 130 – desirable
130 – 159 mg/dl – borderline risk
> 160 mg/dl – high risk
26. Progressive Atherosclerosis
27. Drug Therapy for Dyslipidemia
Bile Acid Sequestrants (Questran) - Binds with bile salts

Cholesterol Absorption Inhibitor (Zetia)– Inhibits intestinal absorption of cholesterol
28. Natural Lipid Lowering Agents Niacin - < LDL levels
Omega-3 fatty acids – fish/flaxseed oil - <Triglycerides & > HDL levels
Milk thistle – Silymarin - > HDL levels
Fiber - < Cholesterol
Phytosterols - < Cholesterol
Soy - < Cholesterol absorption from GI tract
CoEnzyme Q10 – HMG CoA reductase inhibitors – natural statins

Silent Ischemia – 80% of patients with ischemia are asymptomatic
Prinzmetal’s Angina – variant – not precipitated by physical activity – may be due to spasm
Nocturnal Angina – occurs at night but not necessarily during sleep or in recumbent position
Angina Decubitis – recumbent position – relieved by standing
Unstable Angina – Unpredictable or may evolve from stable angina – increasing frequency, duration, intensity
33. CAD Clinical Manifestation – Diagnostics History & Physical Examination

Healing Process
Within 24 hours – leukocytes & enzymes
Third day – collateral circulation developing
10-14 days – scar tissue is still weak
Vulnerable time – unstable state of healing + increased activity
6 weeks – scar tissue replaces necrotic tissue
Normal myocardial tissue may compensate – ventricular remodeling – can cause late congestive heart failure

Patient Education: Rationale for all procedures; pain scale; instruct to report pain
70. Nsg Dx: Ineffective Tissue Perfusion related to Myocardial Injury Assess: VS & Pulse Oximetry qh; continuous cardiac monitoring; respiratory status if Morphine IV is used; fluid balance – strict I&O peripheral edema; heart & breath sounds
Nsg Action: Rest periods; Administer meds & oxygen as ordered
Patient Education: Rationale for rest; energy conservation
71. Nsg Dx: Anxiety related to perceived or actual threat of death Assess: verbal & nonverbal queues
Nsg Action: Calm, reassuring approach; encourage verbalization of feelings, fears, perceptions; family involvement;
Patient Education: Relaxation techniques; simple instructions
72. Nsg Dx: Ineffective therapeutic regimen management related to lack of knowledge Assess: Current knowledge level & readiness to learn; family dynamics
Nsg Action: Assist pt in identifying small successes; Assist pt is identifying lifestyle that needs to be changed; Community referrals—smoking cessation, cardiac rehab, support groups,
Patient Education: Lifestyle changes, Medications—desired effect/side effects; comprehensive discharge plan—continuity with community cardiac rehabilitation
73. Nsg Dx: Activity Intolerance related to fatigue & chest pain Assess: Monitor patient’s response to medications, activity tolerance as increased; Cardiac rate, rhythm, respiratory effort
Nsg Action: Include family; advance activity as tolerated; supplement oxygen as needed
Patient Education: Teach patient energy conservation – activity/rest – activities that will promote independence and decrease oxygen consumption; Cardiac Rehab: exercise & sexual activity
74. Patient Education: Exercise Guidelines post MI Type of Exercise – regular, rhythmic & repetitive – using large muscle groups
Intensity – determined by patient’s HR – should not exceed 20 beats per min > resting HR
Duration – Build to 20 -30 mins
Frequency -- 3-4x/week
Warm-up/Cool-down – 5 mins before and after aerobic exercise. Exercise should not be stopped abruptly
75. Cardiac Rehab – Metabolic Equivalents of Energy Expenditure
76. Patient Education: Sexual Activity post MI Plan of resumption of sexual activity should correspond to activity prior to MI
Physical training improves physical response to coitus
Food & alcohol < prior to sexual activity
Familiar & relaxed surroundings; positions of comfort
Avoid hot or cold showers
Foreplay is desirable – gradual increase in heart rate prior to orgasm
Prophylactic use of nitrates decreases angina
Orogenital sex places no undue strain on the heart
Anal intercourse may cause undue cardiac stress – vasovagal response
77. Emotional & Behavioral Response to Acute MI Denial – Ignores symptoms; minimizes severity; ignores activity restrictions
Anger – “Why did this happen to me?”
Anxiety & Fear – Fear of death & disability –apprehension, tachycardia, restlessness, hypochondria, projection of feelings
Dependency – reliant on staff; hesitant to leave ICU or hospital
Depression – Mourning period; realizes seriousness of situation
Realistic Acceptance – Focuses on optimum rehabilitation; plans changes compatible with cardiac function
