It is also called as Coronary heart disease,usually caused due to BP,diabetes , obesity e.t.c.It leads to the restriction of the blood flow to the heart.

• 2D ECHO REPORT :
IMPRESSION : RHD

7. ASSESMENT
Based on the subjective data and the objective data the final
diagnosis of the patient was found to be having CAD (
coronary artery disease)
• DEFINITION : It is caused by the atherosclerosis of the
coronary arteries that lead to restriction of the blood flow to
the heart
• ETIOLOGY : The major cause for CAD for this patient is
due to unstable angina
Other etiological factors include : Heart attack
Shortness of breath
Angina

8. • Risk factors for CAD :
 High BP
 Diabetes
 Obesity
 High stress
 Unhealthy diet
 Lack of physical activity

10. CLINICAL PRESENTATIONS :
• Shortness of breath
• Palpitations
• Angina
• MI
• Chest pain
• Chest tightness
• Sweating
• Irregular heart beat

11. STANDARAD TREATMENT
• PHARMACOLOGICAL THERPAY:
Anti anginal medications like :
 Nitrates
 Beta adrenergic blockers
 Calcium channel blockers
 ACE inhibitors
 Statins
 Diuretic
 Imipramine for analgesia
SURGERIES LIKE :
 CABG
 Coronary angioplasty
 Heart transplant
 Stent

12. GOALS
 To prevent signs and symptoms by
sympthamatic therapy
 To avoid the further complications
 To decrease the disease progression
 And to increase the patients quality of life

14. DRUG INTERACTIONS
• Moderate :
1.Metoprolol and Albuterol : Metoprolol can cause
narrowing of the airways, which may worsen breathing
problems
Management : Generally be avoided or the dosage should
start low, preferably in divided doses to avoid
2.Metoprolo and Budesonide : Corticosteroids may
antagonise the effect of anti-HTN medications by using
sodium and water retention
Management : Ptn should be monitored regularly for BP,
electrolytes levels and body weight

15. PATIENT COUNSELING
• About Disease : CAD, also called coronary heart disease.
 The arteries, get plaque on their inner walls, which can make them
more rigid and narrowed. This restricts blood flow to your heart
muscle, which can then become starved of oxygen.
 The plaque could rupture, leading to a heart attack or sudden cardiac
death.
 It is mainly caused due to
HTN
DM
Obesity
Smoking
High cholesterol

16. • About drugs :
 Pantoprazole : Should b swallowed whole,donot split,
crush/chew. Should be taken 30 min before meal
 Metoprolol : Administer with or immediately following
food
 Nitrostat : Swallow it as whole, taken with or without food.
 Duolin : Administer via jet nebulizer to an air compressor
with an adequate air flow, equipped with a mouthpiece.
 Budesonide : Do not use ultrasonic nebulizers.

17. LIFE SYLE MODIFICATIONS
 Stop smoking – smoking is toxic to your heart and the
blood vessels
 Eat healthy diet – avoid food containing
fat,cholesterol,salt and sugar
 Get exercise – do exercise 30 min / day or 5 times in a
week
 Reduce or avoid excess weight
 Discontinue alcohol consumption – alcohol may
increase the levels of TG in blood and can leads to
atherosclerosis
 Control BP
