    hypertensive crisis

    Truncus arteriosus
  • Which is false about Patent Ductus Arteriosus?
    A.) involves left to right shunt
    B.) NewBorn will have a murmur
    C.) can treat with pharmcological prostagladndin Inhibitors

    involves the foremen ovale
  • Which one is false about Restrictive Cardiomyopathy?
    a) biventricular heart failure, with left heart failure predominance
    b) etiologies including amyloidosis and sarcoidosis
    c) similar hemodynamic profile to constrictive pericarditis, with rapid "y descent" in the right atrium and "dip and plateau" rapid ventricular filling in the right ventricle
    d) usually normal pericardium
    e) reduced ventricular cavity sizes

    i think its B
  • Angina due to coronary artery spasm is called ____ angina.
    Prinzmetal variant
  • Rheumatic heart disease is most often a consequence of
    β-hemolytic streptococcal infection
  • Coronary perfusion can be altered by all of the following except
    With increased beta receptor input there is decreased coronary artery filling time????
  • Atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP) cause kidneys to increase sodium and water excretion by increasing the glomerular filtration rate. True or False?
    (P.S not sure if this will be a T/F Question)
    True

    (P.S not sure if this will be a T/F Question)
    True

    diastolic murmur

  • Which causes of shock are considered to be obstructive? (Select all that apply.)
    Pulmonary embolus
    Cardiac tamponade

  • Tachycardia is an early sign of low cardiac output that occurs because of
    baroreceptor activity
  • Sepsis has been recently redefined as
    a systemic inflammatory response to infection.
  • Massive release of histamine with consequent vasodilation and hypotension occurs with what type of shock?
    Anaphylactic
  • The effect of nitric oxide on systemic arterioles is
    Vasodilation

  • Which statement is true about the incidence of heart failure? (Select all that apply.)
    Heart failure is the fastest-growing cardiac disorder.

    premature ventricular complexes
  • First-degree heart block is characterized by
    prolonged PR interval
  • Left-sided heart failure is characterized by
    pulmonary congestion
  • Dysrhythmias are significant since they (Select all that apply.)
    can indicate an underlying disorder
    can impair cardiac output
  • A patient has a history of falls, syncope, dizziness, and blurred vision. The patient's symptomology is most likely related to
    hypotension
