EKG
This supraventricular tachyarrhythmia shows an “irregularly irregular” rhythm with absent P waves and is the most common sustained arrhythmia.
What is Atrial Fibrillation
What makes up lipids
Phospholipids, triglycerides, cholesterol
a 50 year old man comes in with chest pain and on exam you hear a harsh crescendo-decrescendo systolic ejection murmur that radiates to the neck/carotids what kind of murmur?
Aortic stenosis
Which medication is used in torsades de pointes
Which condition do you NOT want to give nitroglycerin for
inferior MI
This node, supplied by the right coronary artery or left circumflex artery, has an intrinsic rate of 70–100 bpm and initiates the wave of depolarization through the atria.
What is the sinoatrial node
high intensity statin
atorvastatin and rosuvastatin
you hear a low pitch diastolic rumbling murmur heard best at the apex and an opening snap which murmur is this?
Mitral stenosis
Which medication is used for pSVT arrhythmias
Adenosine
If there is a stemi in the lateral leads which coronary artery is affected
left circumflex or diagonal branch of LAD
This tachyarrhythmia is caused by reentry involving an accessory pathway, often the Bundle of Kent, and is diagnosed by the presence of a delta wave and a short PR interval.
What is Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) Syndrome?
what are the atherosclerosis risk factor
hypertension
diabetes
age
You hear a diastolic, decrescendo blowing high pitch murmur best hear at the left upper/mid sternal border as well as an austin flint mumur. which murmur is this?
aortic regurgitation
What medication is used in WPW
Procainamide
If there is a stemi in the inferior leads which leads will have reciprocal changes
anterior and lateral leads
This genetic Na⁺ channelopathy, more common in Southeast Asian men, shows coved ST elevations in V1–V3 followed by a negative T wave.
Brugada Syndrome
first line therapy for acute episodes of stable angina
nitroglycerin
A patient with a skeletal disease comes in and on exam you hear a mid to late systolic click what is this murmur?
Mitral Valve prolapse
What medication is used for bradycardia
Atropine
What is the first line treatment you wanna do for a STEMI
PCI percutaneous coronary intervention
These two electrolyte abnormalities are most classically associated with a prolonged QT interval.
What are hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia?
what is the major difference between unstable angina and NSTEMI
troponin levels
A patient with a history of IV drug use comes in and on exam you hear a holosystolic, high pitched, heard best at the left mid sternal border. what murmur is this?
Tricuspid regurgitation
treatment for Wenckebach if the pt is symptomatic
atropine
When do we use fibrinolytic?
when there is anticipated delay in STEM diagnosis to PCI-mediated reperfusion time of >120 mins
