Mitral stenosis in adults
Cardiorenal syndrome
, Mx for pt. has suspected HIT (Heparin induced -Switch to direct thrombin (inhibitorargatroban, bivalirudin, dabigatran)
thrombocytopenia) -Mechanism for HIT: auto-antibody mediated platelet activation
Perivalvular abscess complication from Injective -pt. can have 3rd degree heart block
Endocarditis
Clinical features of Aortic Stenosis vs Mitral Stenosis *Aortic Stenosis: exercise intolerance,
*Mitral Stenosis: late diastolic murmur at the cardiac apex, exertional dyspnea,
angina, syncope, weak & slow-rising carotid pulse
Complication of sarcoidosis to keep in mind Cardiac sarcoidosis that can cause nonceseating granulomas of the
myocardium leading to serious arrhymias (AV block), cardiomyopathy, HF,
sudden cardiac death
AAA are not consistent with...... Resistant HTN, if you see this lean toward renal artery stenosis
The presence of a systolic-diastolic abdominal bruit has Renal artery stenosis
high specificity for
monomorphic nonsustained ventricular tachycardia
Constrictive pericarditis
Second degree: type 1 vs type 2
Differentiating b/t a regular athlete's heart and a -athlete's heart: characterized by enlarged left ventricle cavity size with slight
pathological heart with HCOM increase in LV wall thickness
-pathological heart (HCOM): reduce cavity size of left ventricle
Digoxin toxicity tends to present with what cardiac -atria tachycardia with AV block
arrhythmia?
acute aortic dissection
