NSTEMI does not involve _____________ of the ventricular wall?
Give this one a try later!
full thickness
What is stable angina?
Give this one a try later!
Chest pain that is caused by myocardial ischemia
What EKG characteristics are seen in anterior wall MI?
,Give this one a try later!
ST elevation or Q waves, or ST depression in V1-V4 leads
What else happens after 10 seconds of occluded blood flow?
Give this one a try later!
Oxygen reserves are used up; glycogen stores decreased and glycolysis is
not able to supply all the needed energy to the heart and this leads to less
ATP production
Lateral wall MI occurs where?
Give this one a try later!
Left circumflex artery
What is the ischemia in unstable angina cause by?
Give this one a try later!
A labile thrombus which does not occlude blood flow for any longer than
20 minutes; perfusion is restored before myocardial necrosis occurs
What causes coronary artery disease?
, Give this one a try later!
Atherosclerosis which occurs in the coronary arteries
What is character of the chest pain and how is it relieved?
Give this one a try later!
Transient in nature; usually relieved with rest
What is the ischemia caused by?
Give this one a try later!
Gradual lumen narrowing
What do ischemic cells release during and MI and what is the result?
Give this one a try later!
Catecholamines which further stresses the heart and increases the risk of
arrhythmias and heart failure
What typically causes death in Sudden Death?
