Classic EKG finding in atrial flutter - "Sawtooth" p waves
Definition of unstable angina - Angina that is new, is worsening, or occurs at rest
Antihypertensive for a diabetic patient with proteinuria - ACEI
Beck's triad for cardiac tamponade - Hypotension, distant heart sounds, and JVD
Drugs that slow heart rate - Beta-blockers, CCBs, digoxin, amiodarone
Hypercholesterolemia treatment that leads to flushing and pruritus - Niacin
Murmur - hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy - A systolic ejection murmur heard along the
lateral sternal border that increases with decreased preload (i.e. Valsalva maneuver)
Murmur - aortic insufficiency - Austin Flint murmur, a diastolic, decrescendo, low-pitched, blowing
murmur that is best heard sitting up; increases with increased afterload (i.e. handgrip)
Murmur - aortic stenosis - A systolic crescendo/decrescendo murmur that radiates to the neck;
increases with increased preload (i.e. squatting)
Murmur - mitral regurgitation - A holosystolic murmur that radiates to the axillar; increases with
increased afterload (handgrip)
Murmur - mitral stenosis - A diastolic, mid to late, low-pitched murmur preceded by an opening
snapTreatment for atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter - If unstable, cardiovert. If stable or chronic, rate
control with CCBs or beta-blockers
Treatment for ventricular fibrillation - Immediate cardioversion
Dressler's syndrome - An autoimmune reaction with fever, pericarditis and increased ESR
occurring 2-4 weeks post-MI
IV drug use with JVD and holosystolic murmur at left sternal border. Treatment? - Treat existing
heart failure and replace tricuspid valve
Diagnostic test for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Echocardiogram (showing a thickened left
ventricular wall and outflow obstruction)
Pulsus paradoxus - A decrease in systolic BP of > 10 mmHg with inspiration; seen in cardiac
tamponade
Classic ECG finding in pericarditis - Low-voltage, diffuse ST-segment elevation
Definition of hypertension - BP > 140/90 on 3 separate occasions 2 weeks apart
Eight surgically correctable causes of HTN - Renal artery stenosis, coarc of aorta, pheo, Conn's,
Cushing's syndrome, unilateral renal parenchymal dz, hyperthyroid, hyperparathyroid
Evaluation of pulsatile abdominal mass and bruit - Abdominal U/S and CT
Indications for surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm - >5.5cm, rapidly enlarging,
symptomatic, ruptured
