Lecture 1: imaging of cardiac pulmonary systems
Most common PE test Low radiation risk tests Lecture 1: imaging of cardiac pulmonary systems
3
1. Most common PE test
4
CTA (CT Angiography) See lecture 1, slide 9
You’ll need a magnifying glass to see it on that ppt
5
2. Low risk radiation tests
6
MRI No exposure to radiation According to Dr. Google / FDA,
“MRI does not use ionizing radiation (high-energy radiation that can potentially cause damage to DNA, like the x-rays used CT scans). There are no known harmful side-effects associated with temporary exposure to the strong magnetic field used by MRI scanners.”
7
Echocardiography Fast, bed side, no radiation exposure, immediate results, less costly NOTE: this is from lecture 2, slide 32

Lecture 2: Noninvasive Cardiac Testing
When to use each (INDICATION) and data obtained (RESULT) Exercise stress Nuclear stress Stress echo 24 hr Holter Lecture 2: Noninvasive Cardiac Testing
9
2. Nuclear stress test (PMI)
3. Stress Echo 1. Exercise stress test
10
1. Exercise stress test / GXT (graded exercise test)
11
Indication Low risk (stable) angina pectoris (i.e. angina pectoris induced by exercise) The goal is to increase workload incrementally to induce ischemia or until a predetermined workload is reached-peak HR = 220-age. Result (+) test = ST segment depression greater than or equal to 1mm signifying a positive test result If angina develops during exercise, there is a correlation b/w myocardial ischemia and CAD Severity of CAD depends on: Increased ST downslope Greater ST depression ST depression at low workload (i.e. early in the test)
12
2. Nuclear stress test / Myocardial Perfusion Imaging ( MPI)
13
Definition Indication
Inject cardiac specific radioactive tracer (Technetium-labeled agents, such as sestambi or tetrofosmin) to visualize blood flow to the heart. Indication CAD and angina patients whose baseline EKG abnormality (i.e. LVH (LVH with strain), LBBB) would interfere with interpretation of ST segment changes during an exercise stress Compare rest vs. stress images
14
Result Detect perfusion defects of cardiac blood flow
(+) test is reversible ischemia 2 types of perfusion defects: Reversible defect – when exercise/cardiac stress is discontinued, the isotope reperfuses areas that were underperfused/ischemic during exercise due to ischemia Fixed defect - regions of the heart that are irreversibly damaged (scar/MI) do not demonstrate resolution of the defect on resting image
15
SA=Short axis HLA=Horizontal long axis VLA=Vertical long axis
Perfusion deficits are obvious SA view – normal (rest vs. stress) VA view – Rest = okay Stress = no perfusion
16
3. Stress echo
17
Definition Purpose – Indication – Result –
Perform a ECHO while the heart is undergoing exercise, pharmacologically induced or active chest pain Purpose – Visualize wall motion abnormalities Indication – CAD, stable/exercise induced angina Result – (+) stress echo = stress induced decrease (hypokineses) in regional wall motion correlating with the involved coronary artery: Left anterior descending (LAD) anterior, septal and apical Left circumflex (LCx)- posterior and basal Right coronary artery (RCA)- inferior and basal
18
Stress Echocardiography
Dobutamine Stress Echo Exercise Stress Echo
19
Rest – normal ventricular contractions
Stress – LV needs more blood, ischemic area is reduced contraction
20
4. 24-hour holter
21
Indication Result Patient with brief or transient events
Continuous monitoring Result Records cardiac dysrhythmias and conduction disturbances over and extended period ( hours) Detect electrical abnormalities

Lecture 3: Hypertension guidelines Emergencies, Urgency
Diagnosing primary aldosteronism Drug that are bad for the kidneys Blood pressure control for AAA Diagnosing renal artery stenosis Lecture 3: Hypertension guidelines Emergencies, Urgency
23
1. Diagnosing primary aldosteronism
24
Screening for Hyperaldo: Aldosterone - plasma renin ratio
Hyperaldosteronism Adrenal glands secrete abnormally high levels of aldosterone Aldosterone stimulates the kidney: 1) retention of sodium and 2) excretion of potassium: Hypernatremia – high [Na+] Hypokalemia – low [K+] … lost in urine Elevated [Na+] draws water in Elevated volume Elevated BP Reduces renin release Low renin Aldosterone : PRA > 25 : 1
25
Physiologic and Pathophysiologic Effects of Aldosterone on the Kidney and Heart in Relation to Dietary Salt Levels. Hyperaldosteronism Extra secretion of aldosterone from adrenal glands Goes to kidney Retention of Na and H20 HYPERNATREMIA Excretion of K HYPOKALEMIA Hold fluids Elevated volume Elevated BP If body sense high volume/BP, it reduces renin release Low renin Dluhy RG, Williams GH. N Engl J Med 2004;351:8-10.

27
Nitroprusside: Pharmacokinetics
Complex of iron, cyanide groups and a nitroso moiety Metabolized by rapid uptake into red blood cells with liberation of cyanide Cyanide is metabolized to thiocyanate distributed in extracellular fluid and slowly eliminated by the kidney With prolonged administration, thiocyanate may accumulate, especially in the face of renal insufficiency Thiocyanate toxicity: Manifestations include abdominal pain, weakness, tinnitus, vomiting, tremor, agitation, disorientation, progressing to lethargy, seizures and coma in severe cases.
28
Nitroprusside: Indication and Toxicity
Hypertensive emergency Administered via IV infusion Unstable; decomposes when exposed to light Onset within 30 seconds, peak within 2 minutes, cessation 3 minutes after discontinuation Toxicity Thiocyanate accumulation Weakness Disorientation Psychosis Muscle spasms Convulsions Make it there in on the spot, brown bag because it decomposes when exposed to light

Lecture 7: Adult Congenital Heart Disease
Distinguish between ostium primum and secundum ASD on exam/EKG – provide treatment Best treatment for severe congenital aortic valve stenosis, Tetrology of Fallot, Eisenmengers Lecture 7: Adult Congenital Heart Disease
80
1. Distinguish between ostium primum and secundum ASD on exam/EKG
1. Distinguish between ostium primum and secundum ASD on exam/EKG. Provide treatment.
81
1. Atrial Septal Defect Represent 10 to 17% of CHD.
Sinus Venosus (10% of ASD) are located in the Superior Septum and may be associated with anomalous pulmonary venous drainage into the superior vena cava or right atrium. 4. Coronary sinus (rare) unroofed Represent 10 to 17% of CHD. Incidence is 1/1500 live births 4 types: Ostium Secundum Defect (60% of ASD and 6-10% of all ACHD). Location is central and more superior. Ostium Primum (20% of ASD). Location is inferior and involves the atrioventricular junction (cushion defect… if the superior and inferior endocardial cushion do not migrate ostium primum ASD) Usually has a cleft mitral valve and mitral regurgitation. Rarely assoc. with large Ventriculoseptal defect and single AV valve (i.e. Down’s Syndrome) Secundum is central, while primum is lower down, at same level as mitral and tricuspid valves, so one or both valves may be defective, with associated MR or TR. Sinus Venosus defects involve the junction of the SVC (usually) or IVC (less commonly) with the RA and are hard to visualize on echo. A high SV defect is usually associated with an anomalous right upper pulmonary vein.
82
Atrial Septal Defect The majority of ASDs are recognized & repaired in childhood. Mild forms may present in adolescence or adulthood Immigrants who have not had the surgical opportunity may present in adulthood With age, more severe symptoms develop including: Congestive Heart Failure Atrial Fibrillation Emboli - Stroke AFib and CHF may occur in pts. in their 40s or 50s—i.e., unexpectedly young. ASD CVA Periosteal embolism R L shunt (via PFO or VSD) strokes
83
ASD: Diagnostics Examination reveals pulmonary flow murmur and fixed splitting of the second heart sound EKG with a Secundum defect shows rightward axis and a RBBB, Priumum defect, left axis deviation with a RBBB Transthoracic echo and transesophageal echo are the tests of choice. Cardiac catheterization is rarely used anymore. Secundum defect usually has RBBB and R axis deviation on EKG. Primum defect has L axis deviation. CXR shows signs of RV volume overload, with RV enlargement and prominent PA and pulmonary plethora.
84
Atrial Septal Defect Criteria for closing ASD's
ASD's that cause significant shunting of volume to the right heart should be closed, measured by shunt fraction Qp/Qs by either echo or cardiac catheterization with a shunt run. Qp/Qs greater than 1.5 should prompt closure. More important than Qp/Qs is RV and RA enlargement. ASD's should be closed regardless of symptoms if there is right sided volume overload. Can be closed percutaneously or surgically Supravalvular AS may occur as part of Williams’ syndrome.
85
2. Best treatment for severe congenital aortic valve stenosis, Tetrology of Fallot, Eisenmengers
86
2a. Best Tx for severe congenital aortic valve stenosis
87
Subaortic Stenosis Usually diagnosed in adulthood
Discrete fibrous ridge encircling the left ventricular outflow tract between the mitral annulus and the basal inter-ventricular septum. May have mild symptoms up to exertional syncope. Systolic outflow murmur but no click. Develop Left Ventricular Hypertophy (LVH) and post-stenotic aortic dilation. Within the LV outflow tract can form Gradings across valve – is it the valve or area below valve Echo can distinguish Same issues results as aortic stenosis Can be comorbid with aortic stensosis Tx Must treat the valve Infants – air balloon valvuloplasty Adults – aoritc valve replacement Tx, must treat the valve Infants – air balloon valvuloplasty Adults – aoritc valve replacement
88
If severe congenital aortic valve stenosis is involved with coarctation of the aorta
89
Coarctation Repair Surgical correction – Patch aortoplasty
Removing the dysfunctional segment Performing EITHER: End to end anastomosis OR Subclavian flap or bypass tube grafting of segment End-to-end anastomosis often not possible after age 8 and rarely after age Stent treatment an alternative Rx with effective results but increases chance of repeat intervention later. Edmunds’ Cardiac Surgery in the Adult, Ch 47
90
2b. Best Tx for Tetrology of Fallot
91
Tetralogy: Initial Surgical Treatment Usually Done as Infant
INITIAL = begin as a temporary shunt between systemic and pulmonary circulation Blalock-Taussig (subclavian > PA) Waterston (Asc Ao > R PA) Potts (Desc Ao > L PA) LATER = Complete Repair takedown of prior shunt patch VSD resection of subpulmonic obstruction transannular patch around pulmonary valve annulus (usually leads to severe pulmonary insufficiency) Temporary shunt = “ Palliatiation “
92
2c. Best Tx for Eisenmengers
93
Eisenmenger: Treatment
If polycythemia exists phlebotomy Oxygen Diuretics for CHF Definitive - Heart Lung transplant Avoid non-urgent aggressive testing as many patients die during cardiovascular procedures Polycythemia - abnormally increased concentration of hemoglobin in the blood
94
Eisenmenger’s Syndrome
In LR shunts (i.e. ASD or VSD), unrestricted pulmonary blood flow may lead to pulmonary vascular occlusive disease (PVOD); Eisenmenger syndrome represents a very specific form of extreme pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) seen with congenital heart disease. Unlike patients with idiopathic PAH, in Eisenmenger syndrome the clinical and cardiac status is often slow in development. Initial L R shunting Changes to RL shunting due to increased PVR, and the patient develops cyanosis. COMPLICATIONS Coagulopathy/platelet consumption, Brain abcess, Cerebral microemboli, hemoptysis, and right heart failure.
95
Hiremath’s 2013 Exam Questions
The answers are in the notes section.
96
Tetralogy of Fallot is:
VSD, overriding aorta, pulmonary stenosis and RV hypertrophy ASD, mitral stenosis, LA enlargement, and Wolf-Parkinson-White Syndrome Tricuspid malformation ,WPW, ASD, and atrialization of RV Bicuspid aortic valve, coartation of the aortia valve, sysmteic HTN and LV hypertrophy A
97
Of the following, the most common adult congenital heart defect is:
ASD Bicuspid aortic valve VSD Ebstein’s anomaly Supravalvular AS B
98
An ASD should be closed if:
Only the patient has symptoms of SOB LV is enlarged Qp/Qs ratio is greater than 1.5 ASD’s don’t need to be closed since their course is benign There is volume overload of the right heart with enlargement of RA and RV E
99
A patient presents with a history of systolic murmur and decreased femoral pulses with no risk factors for CAD. Your Dx is: Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pulmonary valve stenosis and coarctation of the aorta Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and coarctation of the aorta Bicuspid aorta valve and coarctation of the aorta D Systolic murmur Decreased femoral pulses = coarctation of aorta
100
Eisenmenger’s syndrome is caused by:
Decreased red cell mass and desaturation with exercise Left to right shunting at the atrial level and right to left shunting at the ventricular level Right to left shunting due to fixed pulmonary HTN Right to left shunting due to pulmonary valve stenosis C

Lecture 8: Acute Coronary Syndromes
Plaque rupture pathogenesis Normal EKG findings in V2-3 Treatment options for LBBB Right ventricular infarction treatment options and differences Posterior MI pathology / EKG findings Lecture 8: Acute Coronary Syndromes
102
1. Plaque rupture pathogenesis
103
Plaque composition = fibrous cap + lipid core
Large plaques do not necessarily cause stenosis and anginal symptoms (before the infarct occurs) Plaque composition = fibrous cap + lipid core Vulnerable plaques – not necessarily a large plaque. Thinner fibrous cap – like a volcano, susceptible to blow Thicker lipid core Stable plaques – may be large Thicker fibrous cap – takes a lot more energy to break this thick cap Thinner lipid core
104
The vulnerable plaques – not necessarily a large plaque.
Large plaques do not necessarily cause stenosis and anginal symptoms (before the infarct occurs) The vulnerable plaques – not necessarily a large plaque. The composition – how much of a fibrous cap Thick (won’t rupture) Thin (dangerous volcanoes that are about to blow) How big is the lipid core? Small amount won’t rupture Large amount will rupture How many macrophage cells are present in the plaque?? Focal inflammation plays a role The more inflammatory cells – the more likely to rupture CRP – Sed Rate – WBC’s – increase the chance of infarction in next 3-6 months
105
2. Normal EKG findings in V2-3
106
Where do you measure the ST Segment? At the J-point or 0.04 sec later?
Guidelines say measure the ST elevation at the J-Point 1mm is the cut-off to meet STEMI criteria; Must be in 2 contiguous leads except for V2 and V3 In V2 and V3 - Women 1.5 mm - STEMI <40 yr old men 2.5 mm - STEMI >40 yr old men 2.0 mm - STEMI
108
3. Treatment options for LBBB
109
When should we activate the cath lab in the presence of a LBBB?
Don’t worry if it’s new or old If hemodynamically unstable or in acute heart failure (acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, not just mild failure) – go to cath lab or get lytics If the patient is stable – if you have concordant ST elevation or ST depression – STEMI equivalent, only need one lead (not 2 contiguous) – go to cath lab First two Sgarbossa criteria - if only 1 lead measures > 1mm to cath lab or lytics QRS upwards ST elevation 1mm QRS downwards (V1, V2, V3) ST depression 1 mm
110
LBBB diagnosis of AMI – Sgarbossa criteria
111
4. Right ventricular infarction treatment options and differences
112
Therapeutic Hypothermia Cath lab
Thrombolytics Unfractionated heparin Chewable ASA immediately Therapeutic Hypothermia Cath lab
113
Post Cardiac Arrest After A STEMI OR STEMI After Arrest
Therapeutic Hypothermia GET THEM ON ICE and GET THEM TO THE CATH LAB Best evidence is code after V-Fib Both Class I Interventions Cooling cath into femoral aa Ice into axilla or groin
114
Unfractionated Heparin (not Lovenox or Enoxaparin) on way to cath lab.
ASA immediately…CHEWABLE New or presumed new LBBB with chest pain Prior recommendation to cath lab; treat as STEMI equivalent. New guidelines (2013) – removed new onset LBBB from the guidelines. No longer a criteria to give lytics or go to the cath lab. LBBB - Left Bundle Branch Block - New, old, control – no differences in treatment if given lytics or cath labs
115
Right Ventricular MI
116
Clues to RV Infarction on the 12-Lead ECG
ST Depression in lead V2 AND ST elevation in lead V1 OR Isoelectric ST segments in leads V1 + V3 ST elevation in lead III >> ST elevation in lead II
117
5. Posterior MI pathology / EKG findings
118
Posterior Myocardial Infarction
ECG changes Posterior MI is usually associated with inferior MI due to RCA or circumflex occlusion: RCA occlusion – in a right dominant heart LCX occlusion – in a left dominant heart Increased M&M compared to isolated IMI Mirror image of septal MI in leads V1-V2 Large R waves (instead of Qs) STD (instead of STE) on V123 Upright T-Waves (instead of inversions)
119
Isolated PMI Big R waves Upright T waves ST depression V123
120
Acute Myocardial Infarction
Who gets acute reperfusion therapy for presumed STEMI? Concerning symptoms AND ECG 1mm STE in 2 contiguous leads OR Posterior STEMI OR Presumed new LBBB OR LBBB with Sgarbossa criteria OR [Pacemaker with Sgarbossa criteria]
121
PLMI – Posterior Leads (V3-V6)
STE V5-6; place leads V3-6 posteriorly confirms a posterior MI Posterior MI – should see STE in V3-6 ST depression V2, V3 Big R wavesPut V5 and V6 with St elevation in posterior leads…confirms a posterior MI - STE in V3456

Acute Myocardial Infarction /Ischemia
ECG changes ST depression – ischemia or infarction High morbidity and mortality if untreated T-wave inversions – ischemia Lower specificity and morbidity ST elevation – injury pattern Q-Waves – infarcted tissue Develop within hours “Significant” Q-Waves at least one box wide and one box deep

CABG indications Papillary muscle rupture Lecture 9: Chronic management of coronary artery disease
124
1. CABG indications
125
CABG Preferable Procedure … Indications … see lecture 10, slide 35
Left main stenosis >50% (PCI an option) 3 vessel CAD with EF <45% 2 vessel CAD with proximal LAD involvement (PCI an option), especially in diabetics At least one vessel totally occluded such that complete revascularization not achievable by PCI or unlikely to adequately relieve symptoms. Patient has no comorbidity that would significantly reduce expected surgical survival Decreased LV EF
126
2. Papillary muscle rupture pathogenesis
127
PAPILLARY MUSCLE RUPTURE
Lecture 9, slide 46 May be partial or total A complication of inferior MI, usually due to occlusion of RCA (supplies PM pap muscle) May involve anterolateral pap muscle Causes acute MR and LV failure May involve an RV pap muscle and cause severe TR and RV failure May occur with small infarcts since is due to localized ischemia to pap m. itself Severity of MR depends on extent of pap m ruptured and extent of tear Complete transection of muscle = sudden, massive MR + pulmonary edema/death Rupture of head or tip of muscle = less massive MR due to flail leaflet and prolapse Mitral regurg and LV failure Backflow into LA and pulmonary system Leads to pulmonary edema Tricuspid regug
131
SURGERY Listen to the patient Wide open regurg Listen for the murmur DO a FULL EXAM every day
132
PAPILLARY MUSCLE RUPTURE/ACUTE MR
PE: Murmur of MR is usually holosystolic, at apex, and no palpable thrill. But may be inaudible. Also signs of acute CHF. Not a VSD – will have a thrill, will have shunt and step-up Echo: Flail mitral leaflet and significant MR. LV is hyperdynamic. Cath: MR is seen on ventriculography and coronaries are visualized for CABG. Right heart cath shows no oxygen step-up in RV or PA. Treatment: Hemodynamic deterioration occurs rapidly. Acute stabilization with diuretics and mechanical support (IABP or Impella). Rapid mobilization for prompt surgical MV repair or replacement and CABG.

Lecture 10: Cardiac Catheterization
Indications for treatment based off of angiography findings (observe, CABG, stenting) Compare radial vs. femoral artery cath sites Drug eluting vs. bare stents Papillary muscle rupture pathogenesis Lecture 10: Cardiac Catheterization
134
1. Indications for treatment based off of angiography findings (observe, CABG, stenting)
135
Diagnosing Coronary Disease
ETT (for patients with normal EKG and ability to walk 2 flights of stairs) ETT with nuclear imaging or echo Pharmocologic testing with nuclear (adenosine or regadenoson), dobutamine stress echo Coronary calcium score Coronary CT angiography (good negative predicative value, not good with calcified arteries, or previous stents) Direct coronary angiography Remember that nuclear stress testing can miss balanced multi-vessel disease! CTA Contrast into veins Track into coronary arteries and veins Less invasive than heart cath Good NPV (negative predictive value) PPV (positive preditive value) not as high Poor images with calcified aa ETT – exercise treadmill testing Good for those with normal EKG, nor prior caths Ability to walk Can you walk up 2 flights of stairs, therefore can walk on treadmill LBBB infarction, cannot track the patient on the EKG stress test (cannot monitor the STE) Perfusion scans help localize stenosis Whichever artery we stent is helping with functional flow BEFORE YOU STENT IT Pharm stress test Adenosine – coronary artery VASODILATOR Dobutamine Do with patients who are exercise intolerant Coronary calcium score = CT non-contrast Is there calcium in coronary aa? Males >40 Females > 50; calcium is DIRECTLY related to stenosis 0 = normal, 400 = stenosis
136
Cardiac Catheterization Technique
Local anesthetic Arterial puncture and sheath insertion (Seldinger technique) Pressure Measurement Left ventriculography Selective coronary angiography Additional angiography (aortic, renal, peripheral)
137
Left Heart Cath Indications
Acute Myocardial Infarction “Code STEMI” Other acute coronary syndromes Stable angina Unacceptable symptoms despite adequate Rx High risk stress test – Possible LM or 3V CAD Preop assessment for patient undergoing valve replacement or major vascular surgery Silent myocardial ischemia Status post cardiac arrest Assessment of possible ischemic cardiomyopathy “Need to know” Get STEMI patient to cath lab within 90 minutes
138
Rt & Lt Heart Cath Indications
Evaluation of valvular heart disease Stenosis or insufficiency of any valve Cardiac output determination Cardiomyopathies – Hypertrophic, restrictive Cardiac tamponade, pericardial constriction Congenital heart disease Ischemic heart disease associated with significant LV dysfunction
139
PCI Indications Clinical indications Angiographic indications
Acute coronary syndrome ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (Code STEMI) Non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction Unstable angina Stable angina pectoris – unacceptable symptoms despite adequate medical therapy Recurrent angina post CABG or Stenting with objective evidence of ischemia Angiographic indications Single, multi-vessel, multi-lesion CAD Stenosis greater than 70% or FFR < 0.8 LMCA stenosis if CABG is a poor option Avoid ocular-stenotic reflex Does angiogram… looks bad Your eye sees stenosis worse than it is Do not fix aa that are not ischemic Fractional flow reserve Place doppler flow wire through stenosis Measure FFR ( Transducer at tip of wire past stenosis Get mean distal pressure Divide by mean distal pressure in guide catheter Checks mean aorta pressure Ratio should be 1:1 Should be no drop-off Stenosis reduces the ratio < 1.0 Fractional flow reserve = 0.8 Lesion is ischemic If normal at baseline, add adenosine Vasodilator = provocative challenge via IV If FFR falls to 0.7, this means ISCHEMIA…put a stent in this one
140
CABG Preferable Procedure … Indications
Left main stenosis >50% (PCI an option) 3 vessel CAD with EF <45% 2 vessel CAD with proximal LAD involvement (PCI an option), especially in diabetics At least one vessel totally occluded such that complete revascularization not achievable by PCI or unlikely to adequately relieve symptoms. Patient has no comorbidity that would significantly reduce expected surgical survival Decreased LV EF
141
2. Compare radial vs. femoral artery cath sites
142
Left Heart Cath Approaches
Femoral Axillary Brachial Cutdown – Sones Percutaneous Radial Trans-septal Direct apical puncture Radial a caths are becoming more common
143
Rt and Lt Heart Cath - Femoral vs Brachial/Radial Approach
144
Arterial Access - femoral
Seldinger Technique Local anesthesia for percutaneous approach 3-4 cm inf. to inguinal ligament 0.5cm. Incision over vessel and “tunnel” made with hemostat 18ga. Needle inserted Teflon-coated guide wire passed through needle and needle removed. Sheath advanced over guide wire and dilator and wire removed. Catheter advanced through sheath Sizes from 4-9f, various lengths Seldinger Technique Remove sheath faster, decreases bleeding risk Smaller cath wire, decreases bleeding risk
145
Radial Approach to Cath
Relatively recent adoption in US – frequent in rest of world Advantages: Pts. with PVD, markedly obese Fewer bleeding complications – can be done without reversing warfarin (mechanical valves) Shorter hospital stays – outpatient Cath and PCI Reduced discomfort, immediate ambulation Improved post-procedural quality of life Decreased risk of neurovascular complications Limitations: Steeper learning curve Smaller size occasional limits interventional device options (5f, 6f only, except in very big patients) Make sure ulnar collateral flow is okay, the risk of radial artery obstruction
146
Radial Artery Approach
Need a good radial artery pulse Radial artery occlusion in 3% - normal Allen’s test is essential Can use ulnar artery Requires anticoagulation after sheath insertion Verapamil is administered to prevent radial artery spasm Allen’s Test: When blocking both radial and ulnar aa and then you release the ulnar a Look for blanching of palm with brisk refill When blocking both radial and ulnar aa and then you release the ulnar a Look for blanching of palm with brisk refill

3. Drug eluting vs. bare stents
148
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)
History Dotter and Judkins in transluminal angioplasty for peripheral arteries Gruentzig, first balloon angioplasty in a peripheral artery , Zurich, Switzerland Gruentzig and Myler and the cardiac surgeon Hanna, 1977 – first intraoperative balloon angioplasty Gruentzig, Sept first PCI case - Switzerland >5 million cases yearly worldwide PCI performed more frequently than CABG Bare metal stents (BMS) replace POBA Drug eluting stents (DES) pretty much replace BMS Current re-stenosis < 5% 30 yrs ago, re-stenosis ~30-50% Small aa and long stenosis = higher re-steosis rates Larage aa and short stenosis = very low re-stenosis rates
149
Coronary Stents Metal scaffold – no recoil Bare metal stents
Endothelialization in 4-6 weeks Restenosis in 20-25% of cases Drug Eluting stents Sirolimus, Tacrolimus, Everolimus, Zotarolimus Special polymers, thinner struts Endothelialization in 5-6 months Restenosis in 4-5% Late stent thrombosis in 0.6% - more frequent than BMS
150
Lecture 10: Hiremath’s 2013 Exam Questions
Name the heart dominance in most adults: Right dominant circulation What is the best current accepted therapy for acute MI PTCA and Stent What determines long term re-stenosis? Lesion length and reference diameter How is CAD best diagnosed? No single best test What is the benefit over radial artery cath vs. femoral artery cath? Lower complication rates Patient can walk right out and leave PTCA - Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a minimally invasive procedure to open up blocked coronary arteries, allowing blood to circulate unobstructed to the heart muscle.

Lecture 12: chronic management of CAD
NYHA classifications Distinguish angina types / atypical chest pain / MI / Prinzmetals angina Coronary vasospasm treatment Lecture 12: chronic management of CAD
153
1. NYHA classifications
154
NYHA Classifications Class I No limitation of activity. Ordinary activity does not cause undue fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea, or anginal pain. Class II Slight limitations of physical activity. Patient is comfortable at rest. Ordinary activity results in fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea, or anginal pain. (walking up stairs rapidly, exertion after meals, cold weather) Class III Marked limitation of physical activity. Patient is comfortable at rest, but less than ordinary activity causes fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea, or anginal pain. (walking on level ground 1-2 blocks, stairs at normal pace). Anginal equivalents.* Class IV Inability to carry out physical activity without symptoms. Fatigue, palpation, dyspnea, or anginal pain at rest. Increased symptoms or discomfort with even minor physical activity. *Anginal equivalents: sweating, exertional dyspnea, excessive fatigue, fainting are common in women and elderly; women commonly report atypical symptoms
155
2. Distinguish angina types / atypical chest pain / MI / Prinzmetals angina
156
2a. Stable angina
157
Stable Angina Pectoris
See lecture 12, slide 7 Stable pattern, induced by physical exertion, exposure to cold, eating, emotional stress, Lasts 5-10 min, Relieved by rest or nitroglycerin Baseline often normal or nonspecific ST-T changes Signs of previous MI, ST-segment depression during angina, ≥70% Luminal narrowing of one or more coronary arteries from atherosclerosis Aspirin, Sublingual nitroglycerin , Anti-ischemic medications Stable angina occurs predictably and reproducibly at a certain level of exercise and is relieved with rest or nitroglycerin
158
2b. Unstable angina
159
Unstable Angina See lecture 12, slide 8
Increase in anginal frequency, severity, or duration Angina of new onset or now occurring at low level of activity or at rest. May be less responsive to sublingual nitroglycerin. Same as stable angina, although changes during discomfort may be more pronounced; occasional ST-segment elevation during discomfort. Plaque rupture with platelet and fibrin thrombus, causing worsening coronary obstruction. Aspirin, Anti-ischemic medications, Heparin or LMWH Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, Statins
160
2c. Prinzmetals angina
161
Prinzmetal's or variant angina
See lecture 12, slide 9 Angina without provocation, typically occurring at rest Transient ST-segment elevation during pain Often with associated AV block or ventricular arrhythmias Coronary artery spasm Calcium channel blockers, Nitrates
