The document discusses cardiac failure, which is defined as the inability of the heart to meet the needs of tissues. Cardiac failure can be of the right ventricle, left ventricle, or both ventricles. Causes of heart failure include myocardial dysfunction from issues like IHD, hypertension, and cardiomyopathy. Symptoms of left ventricular failure include orthopnea, dyspnea, cough, and cyanosis, while right ventricular failure can be caused by conditions like COPD or left ventricular failure. Both sided failure can result from hyperthyroidism, beriberi, or severe anemia.

8. heart pathoogy; pericardial diseases
Effusions in the pericardium can cause collections of fluids like serous fluid, pus, or blood. The clinical presentation depends on how rapidly the effusion develops, with rapid effusions risking cardiac tamponade. X-rays may show a globular heart shape. Inflammation of the pericardium can be acute, caused mainly by viruses, or chronic, associated with conditions like tuberculosis or fungi. Special forms include constrictive pericarditis, commonly caused by tuberculosis and resulting in the pericardium thickening to 1 cm, requiring surgery. Rheumatoid arthritis can cause fibrinous pericarditis. Dressler's syndrome involves post-myocardial infarction peric
Congenital Heart Diseases
This document classifies and describes different types of congenital heart diseases. It divides them into two main categories: acyanotic/nonshunt/left to right shunts, which do not cause mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood and are less dangerous; and cyanotic/shunt/right to left shunts, which do cause mixing and are more dangerous. The acyanotic types include atrial and ventricular septal defects, persistent ductus arteriosus, coarctation of the aorta, dextrocardia, and ectopia cordis. The cyanotic types, known as the "five T's", include tricuspid atresia, persistent truncus arterios
Development of Heart and Fetal circulation
The document summarizes the development of the heart and fetal circulation. It begins by discussing how the heart develops from two endothelial heart tubes that fuse to form a single tube. It then details the formation of the atria, ventricles, and septa. The document also describes the fetal circulation, where oxygenated blood travels from the placenta to the fetus through the umbilical vein and deoxygenated blood returns through the umbilical arteries. After birth, the ductus arteriosus, foramen ovale, and ductus venosus close, changing the circulation to receive oxygenated blood from the lungs rather than the placenta.
1 right atrial enlargement
Right atrial enlargement is seen on clinical imaging of the heart. Enlargement of the right atrium can be associated with conditions such as tricuspid insufficiency, pulmonary atresia, and hypoplastic left heart syndrome. In these cases, the right atrium appears enlarged on frontal and left anterior oblique x-ray projections, accompanied by decreased pulmonary vascularity in pulmonary atresia and severe pulmonary venous congestion in hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
Mitral
Mitral stenosis is caused by obstruction of blood flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle due to fusion of the mitral valve leaflets. This limits blood flow and increases blood volume and pressure in the left atrium, eventually leading to pulmonary congestion, increased pulmonary arterial pressure, right ventricular strain, and potential right ventricular failure if left untreated. Symptoms include dyspnea, fatigue, hemoptysis, and cough. Diagnosis involves assessment of pulse and murmurs, ECG, echocardiography, and other tests. Treatment includes antibiotics, management of congestive cardiac failure, surgery such as valvuloplasty or replacement. Mitral regurgitation involves backflow of blood from the
Anomalies of heart
Congenital heart defects are abnormalities in the structure of the heart that are present at birth. They affect approximately 9 in 1000 births and can cause obstructed or abnormal blood flow. Common types include septal defects, where the walls separating the left and right sides of the heart have holes, and obstructive defects, where arteries or valves are blocked. Congenital heart defects range from mild to complex and may require medication, surgery, or both for treatment depending on severity. Their causes are usually a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
New Microsoft Power Point Presentation
Sudden cardiac arrest is caused by an electrical malfunction that disrupts the heart's pumping action. It can result from coronary artery abnormalities, ventricular hypertrophy, myocardial diseases, inflammatory or infiltrative processes, valve diseases, congenital heart defects, electrophysiological abnormalities, or neurological influences. Treatment involves CPR, defibrillation in the emergency room, and may require procedures like angioplasty, bypass surgery, ablation, or implanting a defibrillator depending on the underlying cause. Nursing care focuses on monitoring for arrhythmias, fluid balance, anxiety, and providing patient education.
Lecture 18 cardiovascular system
This document summarizes various cardiovascular conditions including coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, hypertension, and pericardial diseases. It describes the pathophysiology of coronary atherosclerosis leading to decreased blood supply and angina. Myocardial infarction results from coronary thrombosis and presents as areas of necrosis. Hypertension can be primary/benign or malignant, causing hypertrophy and damage to organs over time. Pericarditis commonly results from infection, rheumatic fever or myocardial infarction, and tuberculous pericarditis can lead to constrictive pericarditis.

Congenital anomalies of the heart
Congenital heart defects can involve defects in position, the interatrial septum, the atrioventricular canal, or the bulbus cordis and truncus arteriosus. Defects in position include dextrocardia, where the heart is reversed, and ectopia cordis, where the heart is outside the chest. Defects in the interatrial septum include patent foramen ovale, ostium primum defect from failure of the septum primum to fuse, and ostium secundum defect from failure of the septum secundum to form. Defects in the atrioventricular canal include common atrioventricular canal and tricuspid atresia
10 small ascending aorta or aortic arch
This document discusses two congenital heart conditions: 1) Congenital aortic stenosis, which appears as a small aortic arch with moderate enlargement of the left ventricle; and 2) Transposition of great vessels, which results in a small aortic arch due to narrowing of the vascular pedicle from the abnormal positioning of the aorta and pulmonary artery, giving the heart an oval or egg shape. The document contains two figures illustrating these conditions.
6 cyanotic congenital heart disease with decreased pulmonary
This document discusses several cyanotic congenital heart diseases that result in decreased pulmonary vascularity visible on chest radiographs. It describes six conditions - Tetralogy of Fallot, Pseudotruncus arteriosus, Trilogy of Fallot, Tricuspid atresia, Ebstein's anomaly, and Pulmonary atresia - and provides examples of chest radiograph images demonstrating the decreased pulmonary vascularity and other radiographic signs characteristic of each condition.
Factor v leiden mutation
Factor V Leiden is a genetic mutation that causes a person's blood to be more prone to abnormal clotting. Those with the mutation are more likely to develop deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolisms. Activated protein C normally prevents excessive clotting by breaking down blood clots, but the mutation causes resistance to activated protein C, leaving factor V active and resulting in a hypercoagulable state and increased risk of clots.
scimitar syndrome
A 45-year-old female presented with chest pain and hemoptysis for one month. She has no past medical history but a history of hydatid cyst removal surgery. The document discusses Scimitar syndrome, a rare type of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return where an anomalous pulmonary vein drains part or all of the right lung into the inferior vena cava. It describes the components and variations of Scimitar syndrome and discusses its estimated incidence, associated anomalies, presentation, and surgical correction options.
15 dilatation of the azygos vein
The azygos vein was dilated, indicating increased central venous pressure likely due to congestive heart failure. There were also bilateral pleural effusions seen. The dilated azygos vein and pleural effusions suggest the patient was experiencing congestive heart failure leading to backup of blood in the veins draining into the heart.
Congenital heart disease
This document discusses congenital heart diseases. It begins by describing the fetal circulation and how it changes after birth. It then discusses the epidemiology and types of congenital heart diseases, including acyanotic lesions like atrial and ventricular septal defects which cause left-to-right shunts, and cyanotic lesions like transposition of the great arteries and tetralogy of Fallot which cause right-to-left shunts. For each type of lesion, the document discusses physical exam findings, natural history, and management approaches. The goal is to provide an overview of congenital heart diseases, their presentations, and treatment options.
Congenital cardiopathies (12)
This document provides an overview of congenital cardiopathy, including its causes, classifications, and types. It discusses how congenital heart diseases result from abnormal embryonic development and have multifactorial etiologies involving genetic and environmental factors. The document classifies congenital heart diseases as either acyanotic or cyanotic and describes common types such as atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, coarctation of the aorta, tetralogy of Fallot, and transposition of the great vessels. Treatment options like surgical closure or angioplasty are mentioned for some conditions.
Myocardial infarction
The document defines MI as the permanent destruction of heart muscle cells due to reduced blood flow in a coronary artery, usually caused by atherosclerosis or a blood clot blocking an artery. It lists the main causes of MI as coronary atherosclerosis (around 90% of cases) or non-atherosclerotic causes like vasospasm, embolism, or decreased oxygen supply. Signs and symptoms, diagnostic tests, complications, and treatments for MI are also outlined.
Pericardial Disease
The document summarizes pericardial diseases. It discusses the anatomy and physiology of the pericardium, acute pericarditis including symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, and pericardial effusion and tamponade. Acute pericarditis is usually self-limited and treated with NSAIDs. Larger effusions may require hospitalization. Pericardial effusion can progress to tamponade, where fluid accumulation compresses the heart and impairs filling.

Congenital heart defects
Congenital heart defects are problems present at birth involving the heart's structure, such as walls, valves, or arteries and veins. Signs and symptoms depend on the type and severity of defect. There are many causes including genetic and environmental factors. Some defects are caused by abnormal heart development during embryology when timing of cell growth is disrupted. Common types of defects include septal defects and obstruction defects impacting blood flow.
Pericardial effusion
A 46-year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer presents with worsening dyspnea and weakness over 3 days. On exam, she has tachycardia and clear lungs bilaterally with signs of left mastectomy. Imaging shows a pericardial effusion causing enlarged heart shadow. Treatment includes oxygen, IV fluids, and emergency pericardiocentesis if hemodynamically compromised, with admission to manage underlying disease or effusion.
Revision de articulos
The document summarizes a study that used transesophageal echocardiography on 189 cardiac arrest patients over 18 during CPR. It found that in around 80% of CT scans, the structure underneath the sternum at the intercostal line was something above the left ventricle like the aorta rather than the left ventricle. The study also found that left ventricular stroke volume was higher when compression was closer to the left ventricle, but compression level at that point did not correlate with stroke volume. Direct observation showed standard CPR can narrow the left ventricular outflow tract and/or aortic root to varying degrees.
Pediatrics
Transposition of the great arteries is a congenital heart defect where the two main arteries that carry blood away from the heart - the pulmonary artery and the aorta - are switched. This results in deoxygenated blood being pumped to the body and oxygenated blood being pumped to the lungs. While transposition of the great arteries was first described centuries ago, no treatment was available until the 1950s with the development of surgical procedures. Today, survival rates following surgical repair exceed 90%.
congenital heart disease & rheumatic heart disease
This document provides information on several types of congenital and rheumatic heart disease, as well as surgical correction of cardiovascular lesions. It discusses congenital heart defects such as atrial and ventricular septal defects, tetralogy of Fallot, coarctation of the aorta, and patent ductus arteriosus. For each condition, it describes the etiology, clinical features, investigations, and management approaches. The document emphasizes that while many congenital heart defects used to be fatal in childhood, surgery can now correct or partially repair many conditions, allowing survival into adulthood.
Broad complex tachycardia
This document defines and describes various types of broad complex tachycardia, including concordance, fusion beats, capture beats, stable ventricular tachycardia, torsade de pointes, ventricular extrasystoles, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia without pulse. Treatment recommendations are provided for stable VT, including high flow oxygen, IV access, electrolyte and lab tests, and antiarrhythmic medications. Ventricular fibrillation and pulseless VT require immediate defibrillation. References include textbooks and medical websites.
4. heart pathology; hypertensive heart diseases
This document discusses hypertensive heart diseases, including systemic and pulmonary types. Systemic hypertensive heart disease is characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy and evidence of hypertension, leading to left ventricular hypertrophy, left atrial dilation, and left ventricular failure. It can also cause systemic thromboembolism. Pulmonary hypertensive heart disease features right ventricular dilation excluding congenital causes and left heart failure, resulting in right ventricular dilation and cor pulmonale, with possible functional tricuspid regurgitation. Pulmonary hypertension can be caused by lung parenchymal pathology from COPD or fibrotic lung diseases, or vascular pathology including thromboembolism, vasculitis, drugs and chemicals. Chest wall
Cardiomyopathies
Dilated cardiomyopathy is the most common type of cardiomyopathy and is characterized by left ventricular dilation and systolic dysfunction. Causes include genetic factors in 20-50% of cases as well as myocarditis, alcohol toxicity, and peripartum cardiomyopathy. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is caused by mutations in sarcomeric genes and is characterized by asymmetric hypertrophy of the ventricular septum. Restrictive cardiomyopathy results in stiff ventricles with impaired diastolic filling and is associated with conditions causing fibrosis like radiation, amyloidosis, and sarcoidosis. The main types of cardiomyopathy are dilated, hypertrophic, restrictive, and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
Cardiovascular and hemolynphatic diseases word printable
This document summarizes various diseases of the cardiovascular and hemolymphatic systems in horses. It describes the pathogenesis, clinical signs, lesions, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of conditions like congestive heart failure, acute heart failure, peripheral circulatory failure, valvular diseases, endocarditis, pericarditis, septal defects, and hemolymphatic diseases like anemia and hemorrhage. Key points include that congestive heart failure develops when the heart can no longer maintain circulatory equilibrium at rest, valvular diseases cause murmurs from turbulent blood flow, endocarditis can be caused by bacterial infection of heart valves, and anemia results from a decrease in circulating blood volume.

In summary, it provides a comprehensive overview of cardiac function and the pathophysiology of heart failure.
Pericardial diseases
This document discusses pericardial diseases, focusing on pericarditis, pericardial effusion, and cardiac tamponade. It defines the pericardium and its functions. It describes the symptoms, signs, and diagnostic criteria for acute pericarditis. Causes of pericarditis include infections, autoimmune disorders, neoplasms, radiation, renal failure, and trauma. Treatment involves NSAIDs, colchicine, or steroids depending on severity and recurrence risk. Pericardial effusion and tamponade can develop as complications, requiring drainage procedures or surgery.

This document defines and classifies shock, discusses its pathophysiology and clinical signs. It describes the different types of shock including hypovolemic, cardiogenic, obstructive, and distributive shock. For each type it discusses etiology, hemodynamics, laboratory tests, imaging and management approaches including fluid resuscitation and vasopressor/inotropic drug therapy.
Restrictive cardiomyopathy
Restrictive cardiomyopathy is characterized by stiff ventricles that do not fill properly, though systolic function is usually preserved initially. It can be caused by infiltrative diseases, fibrosis, or other processes that restrict ventricular filling. On echocardiogram, restrictive cardiomyopathy shows impaired ventricular filling and enlarged atria, while cardiac catheterization reveals elevated diastolic pressures and a distinctive "square root sign" pressure tracing. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and underlying causes if identifiable, though prognosis is often poor without transplantation.

Cardiomyopathiesclassification,oetiology and treatment
This document discusses different types of cardiomyopathies including their classification, etiology, and treatment. It focuses on dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), providing details on its classification, causes, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management. It also discusses other forms of cardiomyopathy such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), describing its characteristic left ventricular hypertrophy and outflow tract obstruction. The document aims to comprehensively classify and describe different cardiomyopathies for medical professionals.
hypoglycemic brain injury
The document discusses congestive cardiac failure in newborns. It begins by describing the etiology of congestive cardiac failure, which can be due to limited inflow or outflow of the heart, volume overload lesions, or diminished cardiac capacity. It then discusses the presentation of congestive cardiac failure in newborns, including symptoms like feeding difficulties, tachycardia, and tachypnea. Physical exam findings and classifications of severity are also outlined. The document concludes by covering diagnostic testing and management approaches for acute congestive cardiac failure in newborns.
Acs0412 Pericardial Procedures
The document discusses pericardial procedures and pericardial disease. It begins with an overview of the anatomy and physiology of the pericardium. The pericardium consists of inner and outer layers that surround the heart. It normally contains a small amount of fluid and influences cardiac function due to its noncompliance. The document then discusses pericardial effusion and constrictive pericarditis, which are the main conditions requiring pericardial intervention. Various causes of constrictive pericarditis are outlined, including infection, surgery, trauma, and connective tissue disorders. The physiologic effects of a thickened pericardium that causes constriction are also described.
Heart failure (mma) 3
1. Heart failure occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs or can only do so with increased filling pressure.
2. Common causes of heart failure include coronary artery disease, hypertension, cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, and arrhythmias.
3. Symptoms of heart failure depend on whether it affects the left side, right side, or both ventricles, and include fatigue, breathlessness, leg swelling, and liver congestion.
cardiomyopathies-130130101714-phpapp02.pptx
This document provides an overview of different types of cardiomyopathies:
1. Cardiomyopathies are classified as dilated, hypertrophic, restrictive, or arrhythmogenic right ventricular disease. Dilated cardiomyopathy is the most common and causes enlargement and weakening of the heart muscles.
2. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy causes abnormal thickening of the heart muscles and can lead to obstruction of blood flow from the heart. It is usually genetic in origin.
3. Restrictive cardiomyopathy stiffens the heart muscles and impairs their ability to fill with blood, restricting blood flow. It can be caused by conditions like amyloidosis or radiation damage.
4. The document describes the

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
