Fisdap Cardiology Exam 2026 Question
and Answer | 100% Verified Answers | A+
Verified
• Stimulation of Beta 1 receptors result in an increase of what? -
✓✓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. -✓✓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? -✓✓P wave
• Carvedilol (Coreg)
Metropolol (Lopressor)
Atenolol (Tenormin)
Propranolol (Inderal)
Bisoprolol (Zebeta)
Acebutolol (Sectral)
Comolol (Brevibloc) -✓✓Beta Blockers - used for blood pressure and
cardiac problems
• Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Vasopressin
Dopamine
Phenylephrine
, Dobutamine -✓✓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. -
✓✓Relative Refractory Period
(Partial flush of the toilet)
• Starlings Law -✓✓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) -✓✓20-40
• Intrinsic Rate for AV Junction -✓✓40-60
• Treatment for Beta Blocker Overdose -✓✓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 -✓✓Nitrate Vasodilator and Antianginal
Relaxes vascular smooth muscle = vasodilation and venous pooling
which Reduces Preload/Afterload and Dilates Coronary Arteries which
increases myocardial perfusion.
