Fisdap Cardiology Exam 2026 Questions
and Answers Graded A+
Where are Beta 1 receptors found? - Correct answer-Heart and Kidneys
Stimulation of Beta 1 receptors result in an increase of what? - Correct answer-
Heart: Inotropy, Chronotropy, Dromotropy
Kidneys: Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System = Vasoconstriction = Increase
blood pressure
Which node is located at the junction of the superior vena cava and the right
atrium, is typically supplied by the Right Coronary artery, and fires at a rate of 60-
100 bpm. - Correct answer-SA Node
Atrial depolarization characterized by smooth, round, upright deflection less than
0.11 secs long and less than 2.5mm tall is referred to as what on the ECG? -
Correct answer-P wave
Carvedilol (Coreg)
Metropolol (Lopressor)
,Atenolol (Tenormin)
Propranolol (Inderal)
Bisoprolol (Zebeta)
Acebutolol (Sectral)
Comolol (Brevibloc) - Correct answer-Beta Blockers - used for blood pressure and
cardiac problems
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Vasopressin
Dopamine
Phenylephrine
Dobutamine - Correct answer-Vasopressors
The middle of phase 3 to beginning of phase 4 in the cardiac cycle where cardiac
cells are partially refractory and partially repolarized and certain cells can be
depolarized in response to electrical stimulus. - Correct answer-Relative Refractory
Period
, (Partial flush of the toilet)
Starlings Law - Correct answer-When end diastolic volume increases, stroke
volume increases as well.
(When more blood is in the ventricles, the cardiac muscle stretches like rubber
band and creates more forceful contraction)
Intrinsic Rate for Ventricles (Purkinje Fibers) - Correct answer-20-40
Intrinsic Rate for AV Junction - Correct answer-40-60
Treatment for Beta Blocker Overdose - Correct answer-Glucagon: 1-5mg IV/IO
(1st Line Drug)
Calcium Chloride: 500mg - 1g IV/IO
Why do we give Nitro for chest pain?
Class
MOA
Indications - Correct answer-Nitrate Vasodilator and Antianginal
