Perioperative case of myocardial ischemia and its management ZIKRULLAH MALLICK
This document describes the case of a 40-year-old male patient who experienced hypotension, bradycardia, and ST segment changes during a long orthopedic surgery, indicating possible acute coronary syndrome. Biomarkers after surgery confirmed myocardial injury. The patient was treated in the ICU and recovered. The document then reviews risk factors, mechanisms, diagnosis, and management of perioperative myocardial infarction.
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia and increases mortality risk. It is classified as paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent based on duration. The CHA2DS2-VASc score is used to assess stroke risk and determine need for anticoagulation. Treatment focuses on rate control with medications like calcium channel blockers or cardioversion for hemodynamic instability. Anticoagulation is recommended for CHA2DS2-VASc score over 2 to prevent stroke.
This document discusses the classification and management of ventricular arrhythmias. It is divided into sections on classification by clinical presentation, electrocardiography, disease entity. Management of VT in structurally abnormal hearts is discussed, including those related to coronary artery disease, dilated cardiomyopathy, bundle branch reentrant tachycardia, arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, and other conditions. Clinical presentation, mechanisms, diagnostic testing, and treatment options are summarized for each condition.

This document provides an overview of cardiac arrhythmias including their classification, mechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches and management strategies. It discusses various specific arrhythmias in detail such as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular arrhythmias, sick sinus syndrome and heart block. Treatment options covered include pharmacological therapies using different classes of antiarrhythmic drugs, procedures like cardiac ablation and use of devices like pacemakers.
Heart block occurs when the electrical signals between the upper (atrial) and lower (ventricular) chambers of the heart are slowed or blocked, causing the heart to beat too slowly. There are three degrees of heart block - first degree causes a prolonged PR interval on ECG; second degree can be Mobitz type I (Wenckebach) where the PR interval prolongs until a dropped beat, or Mobitz type II where beats are occasionally dropped; and third degree is complete heart block where there is no connection between atria and ventricles. Nursing management of heart block includes monitoring for symptoms of low cardiac output, preventing complications of immobility, managing anxiety, and preventing infections at pacemaker insertion sites.
This document discusses acute coronary syndrome (ACS), including unstable angina (UA), non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Management of Cardiac Surgery Patients and role of PA'sNeil Daswani
The document provides an overview of the role of physician assistants in managing cardiac surgery patients throughout the surgical process from pre-op to post-op care. It describes a typical day for a PA which includes rounds, progress notes, assisting in the operating room, pre-op and discharge tasks. It also outlines common complications and treatments for issues like bleeding, arrhythmias, infections and discusses the admission, surgical and discharge processes.
Modern devices such as implantable defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) are playing an expanding role in treating heart failure. CRT aims to improve synchronization of ventricular contractions in patients with left bundle branch block and a widened QRS complex. It has been shown to improve symptoms, exercise capacity, and reduce hospitalizations and mortality in moderate to severe heart failure patients. ICDs provide protection against sudden cardiac death from arrhythmias in patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Guidelines recommend considering CRT for appropriate candidates with LVEF <35% and QRS >120ms and considering ICDs for those with LVEF <35% who are not in NYHA
Cardiac arrhythmias are abnormalities in the heart's rhythm. There are two main types: bradycardia, a slow heart rate, and tachycardia, a fast heart rate. Various arrhythmias are described including sinus bradycardia, heart block, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, AV nodal reentry tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia. Treatment depends on the type of arrhythmia and may include medication, cardioversion, ablation, or pacemaker implantation. Diagnosis involves ECG, echocardiogram, blood tests, and other cardiac tests. Lifestyle changes and avoiding arrhythmia triggers can help management.

Laying the patient flat eliminated symptoms in 40%
60% received ACLS intervention(s): atropine in 80%, epinephrine or dopamine in 50%,
and transcutaneous pacing in 30%.
Half of all patients ultimately required a permanent pacemaker, but the other half had a
reversible cause.

41. Take home points for approach to
bradycardia and BRADI mnemonic
The approach to bradycardia includes assessing stability, symptoms, ECG
localization, and reversible causes of
BRADI: BRASH/hyperkalemia, Reduced vitals (oxygen, glucose,
temp), Acute coronary occlusion, Drugs (eg beta-blockers, calcium blockers,
dig), and ICP/Infections (eg Lyme, endocarditis)
The ECG can localize the mechanism of bradycardia/blocks and identify two
important reversible causes prior to lab confirmation: hyperkalemia and acute
coronary occlusion
