Aortic stenosis characteristics SAD:SyncopeAnginaDyspnoea
MI: basic management BOOMAR:Bed restOxygenOpiateMonitorAnticoagulateReduce clot size
Pericarditis: causes CARDIAC RIND:Collagen vascular diseaseAortic aneurysmRadiationDrugs (such as hydralazine)InfectionsAcute renal failureCardiac infarctionRheumatic feverInjuryNeoplasmsDressler's syndrome
MI: signs and symptoms PULSE:Persistent chest painsUpset stomachLightheadednessShortness of breathExcessive sweating
Heart compensatory mechanisms that 'save' organ blood flow during shock "Heart SAVER":Symphatoadrenal systemAtrial natriuretic factor
VasopressinEndogenous digitalis-like factorRenin-angiotensin-aldosterone system· In all 5, system is activated/factor is released
Murmurs: right vs. left loudness "RILE":Right sided heart murmurs are louder on Inspiration.Left sided heart murmurs are loudest on Expiration.· If get confused about which is which, remember LIRE=liar which will be inherently false.
ST elevation causes in ECG, ELEVATION:ElectrolytesLBBBEarly repolarizationVentricular hypertrophyAneurysmTreatment (eg pericardiocentesis)Injury (AMI, contusion)Osborne waves (hypothermia)Non-occlusive vasospasm
Beck's triad (cardiac tamponade) 3 D's:Distant heart soundsDistended jugular veinsDecreased arterial pressure

MI: therapeutic treatment ROAMBAL:ReassureOxygenAspirinMorphine (diamorphine)Beta blockerArthroplastyLignocaine
CHF: causes of exacerbation FAILURE:Forgot medicationArrhythmia/ AnaemiaIschemia/ Infarction/ InfectionLifestyle: taken too much saltUpregulation of CO: pregnancy, hyperthyroidismRenal failureEmbolism: pulmonary
Pericarditis: EKG "PericarditiS":PR depression in precordial leads.ST elevation.
Jugular venous pressure (JVP) elevation: causes HOLT: Grab Harold Holt around the neck and throw him in the ocean:Heart failureObstruction of venea cavaLymphatic enlargement - supraclavicularIntra-Thoracic pressure increase
Depressed ST-segment: causes DEPRESSED ST:Drooping valve (MVP)Enlargement of LV with strainPotassium loss (hypokalemia)Reciprocal ST- depression (in I/W AMI)Embolism in lungs (pulmonary embolism)Subendocardial ischemiaSubendocardial infarctEncephalon haemorrhage (intracranial haemorrhage)Dilated cardiomyopathyShockToxicity of digitalis, quinidine
Murmurs: innocent murmur features 8 S's:SoftSystolicShortSounds (S1 & S2) normalSymptomlessSpecial tests normal (X-ray, EKG)Standing/ Sitting (vary with position)Sternal depression
Murmur attributes "IL PQRST" (person has ill PQRST heart waves):IntensityLocationPitchQualityRadiationShapeTiming
Murmurs: locations and descriptions "MRS A$$":MRS: Mitral Regurgitation--SystolicA$$: Aortic Stenosis--Systolic· The other two murmurs, Mitral stenosis and Aortic regurgitation, are obviously diastolic.
Betablockers: cardioselective betablockers "Betablockers Acting Exclusively At Myocardium"· Cardioselective betablockers are:BetaxololAcebutelolEsmololAtenololMetoprolol
Apex beat: abnormalities found on palpation, causes of impalpable HILT:HeavingImpalpableLaterally displacedThrusting/ Tapping· If it is impalpable, causes are COPD:COPDObesityPleural, Pericardial effusionDextrocardia
MI: treatment of acute MI COAG:CyclomorphOxygenAspirinGlycerol trinitrate
Coronary artery bypass graft: indications DUST:Depressed ventricular functionUnstable anginaStenosis of the left main stemTriple vessel disease
Supraventricular tachycardia: treatment ABCDE:AdenosineBeta-blockerCalcium channel antagonistDigoxinExcitation (vagal stimulation)
Ventricular tachycardia: treatment LAMB:LidocaineAmiodaroneMexiltene/ MagnesiumBeta-blocker
Sinus bradycardia: aetiology "SINUS BRADICARDIA"
(sinus bradycardia):SleepInfections (myocarditis)Neap thyroid (hypothyroid)Unconsciousness (vasovagal syncope)Subnormal temperatures (hypothermia)Biliary obstructionRaised CO2 (hypercapnia)AcidosisDeficient blood sugar (hypoglycemia)Imbalance of electrolytesCushing's reflex (raised ICP)AgingRx (drugs, such as high-dose atropine)Deep anaesthesiaIschemic heart diseaseAthletes
Rheumatic fever: Jones criteria · Major criteria: CANCER:CarditisArthritisNodulesChoreaErythemaRheumatic anamnesis· Minor criteria: CAFE PAL:CRP increasedArthralgiaFeverElevated ESRProlonged PR intervalAnamnesis of rheumatismLeucocytosis
JVP: wave form ASK ME:
Atrial contractionSystole (ventricular contraction)Klosure (closure) of tricusps, so atrial fillingMaximal atrial fillingEmptying of atrium
ECG: T wave inversion causes INVERT:IschemiaNormality [esp. young, black]Ventricular hypertrophyEctopic foci [eg calcified plaques]RBBB, LBBBTreatments [digoxin]
Myocardial infarctions: treatment INFARCTIONS:IV accessNarcotic analgesics (eg morphine, pethidine)Facilities for defibrillation (DF)Aspirin/ Anticoagulant (heparin)RestConverting enzyme inhibitorThrombolysisIV beta blockerOxygen 60%NitratesStool Softeners
Atrial fibrillation: causes PIRATES:Pulmonary: PE, COPD
IatrogenicRheumatic heart: mirtral regurgitationAtherosclerotic: MI, CADThyroid: hyperthyroidEndocarditisSick sinus syndrome
Atrial fibrillation: management ABCD:Anti-coagulateBeta-block to control rateCardiovert Digoxin
Anti-arrythmics: for AV nodes "Do Block AV":DigoxinB-blockersAdenosineVerapamil
