ICD placed for prevention of lethal dysrhythmias, at risk of sudden cardiac death CANNOT GO IN MRI

aortic dissection

911 tear in intimal layer of the vessel creating false lumen where blood flows sudden severe chest pain is <C type A: most concerning bc involves ascending aorta type B: in descending thoracic and abdominal aorta, pain between scapulae. normally in younger with marfan. control bp, decrease contraction with bb , emergency surgery

The patient presents to the emergency department with severe substernal chest discomfort. Cardiac enzymes are elevated and his ECG shows ST-segment depression in V2 and V3. This patient is most likely experiencing: A) non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI). B) pulmonary embolism. C) Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI). D) right ventricular infarction.

A The non-Q-wave MI usually results from a partially occluded coronary vessel, and it is associated with ST-segment depression in two or more leads along with elevated cardiac enzymes.

An adult patient suffered an anterior wall myocardial infarction (MI) 4 days ago. Today the patient is experiencing dyspnea and sitting straight up in bed. The nurse's assessment includes bibasilar crackles, an S3 heart sound with a heart rate of 125 beats/min. What condition are these signs and symptoms consistent with? A) Heart failure B) Papillary muscle rupture C) Pericarditis D) Pulmonary embolism

A These are classic signs of fluid overload and heart failure. Presence of a heart murmur, not the S3, might alert the nurse to a papillary muscle rupture. The patient with pericarditis may have chest pain and a pericardial friction rub.

The patient presents to the emergency department after having crushing chest pain for the past 5 hours. The ECG and laboratory work confirm suspicions of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Which findings would be the most conclusive that the patient is having an AMI? (Select all that apply.) A) ECG changes with ST-elevation B) Elevated CK-MB isoenzymes C) Elevated serum troponin levels D) Elevated urinary myoglobin level

ABC ST-segment elevation and elevated cardiac enzymes are seen in Q-wave MI. Serum myoglobin may assist in diagnosis of AMI.

Which statements related to the management of unstable angina are true? (Select all that apply.) A) Aspirin is given at the onset of each chest pain episode. B) Calcium channel blockers help to reduce symptoms. C) Early revascularization (e.g., angioplasty) may be helpful. D) It is best treated with rest and nitroglycerin.

ABC Unstable angina can be treated by conservative management or early intervention with percutaneous intervention or surgical revascularization. Conservative intervention for the patient experiencing angina includes the administration of nitrates, beta-adrenergic blocking agents, and/or calcium channel blocking agents. Angioplasty, stenting, and bypass surgery are approaches to revascularization. Rest and nitroglycerin are treatments for stable angina.

Angiotensin-converting enzymes inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) should be started within 24 hours of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) to reduce the incidence of: A) hibernating myocardium. B) myocardial remodeling. C) myocardial stunning. D) tachycardia.

B Myocardial remodeling is a process mediated by angiotensin II, aldosterone, catecholamine, adenosine, and inflammatory cytokines, which causes myocyte hypertrophy and loss of contractile function in the areas of the heart distant from the site of infarctions. ACE inhibitors should be ordered.

The patient, who is being treated for hypercholesterolemia, complains of hot flashes and a metallic taste in the mouth. These are common side effects of: A) bile acid resins. B) clopidogrel. C) nicotinic acid. D) statins.

C Common side effects of nicotinic acid include metallic taste in mouth, flushing, and increased feelings of warmth.

A 67-year-old female is admitted to the emergency department complaining of mid-back pain and shortness of breath for the preceding 2 hours. She also complains of nausea and states that she vomited twice before coming to the hospital. She denies any chest discomfort or arm pain. The presenting symptoms suggest that this patient may be: A) exhibiting flu symptoms. B) having an anxiety attack. C) having a myocardial infarction (MI). D) suffering from osteoporosis.

C Women are more likely to have atypical signs and symptoms of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), such as shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting, and back or jaw pain.

A patient is complaining of midsternal chest discomfort radiating down the right arm. The discomfort has been present for about 5 minutes. The patient is also asthmatic and allergic to calcium channel blockers. The medication of choice for this patient at this time is: A) isoptin. B) metoprolol. C) nifedipine. D) nitroglycerin sublingual.

D

The most sensitive cardiac enzyme to assess myocardial necrosis is: A) CK. B) CK-MB. C) potassium. D) troponin I.

D Troponin I has a greater specificity than other tests in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) at 7 to 14 hours after the onset of chest pain.
