Aneurysm
Medical Management on MI
PCI
Anticoag
B blockers
ACE/ARB
Glucose control
Ventricular remodeling can be prevented with...
B blockers and ACE inhibitors
Main cause of HF
CAD
Class I HF
ADLs cause no S/S
Class II HF
ADL cause S/s but they subside with rest
Class III HF
Min activity causes S/S
Class IV HF
S/S present @ rest
Progression of Left HF
Arteries constrict to compensate, SVR goes up, heart work is increased, blood backs up into lungs, then right heart
S/S of Left HF
Weak pulses
Cool/pale extremites
Fatigue
Pulm edema
Increased HR/RR
Cause of Right HF
Most commonly Left HF
PEs
MIs
S/S of Right HF
JVD
Increase CVP
Weakness
Edema
Hepatomegaly
Sys HF is...
Left HF plus EF less then 50%
S/S of Sys HF
Dyspnea
Exercise intolerance
Fluid overload
Diastolic HF is...
inability of heart to relax, causing increased pressures with less volume
In HF the sympathetic nervous system...

Renin is relased when..... from the ....
CO is low
Kidneys
Angiotensin I is made from

Angiotensin II is made from.... and has what effects
Angiotensin I and ACE
Is a strong vasoconstricter
Aldosterone is released when... and has what effects

Causes the distal tubules to retain Na
When CO is low, the renal tubules...
