Angina - ANSWER: Pain in the heart region caused by lack of oxygen
Ischemia - ANSWER: Lack of blood supply, coronary artery occlusion
Nitrates - ANSWER: relax smooth muscle, peripheral vessel dilation.
Examples: nitroglycerin, isordil
exertion - ANSWER: Chest pain if ischemia is present
Propanolol - ANSWER: Long term management of angina
Nitroglycerin - ANSWER: Treats angina
blood pressure - ANSWER: Cardiac output, pvr
Htn - ANSWER: Leading cause of atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis - ANSWER: Hardening of the arteries
infarction - ANSWER: sudden blockage of an artery due to HTM and remodeling
Cva - ANSWER: Rapid decrease in blood supply to brain
ACEIs - ANSWER: Can cause cough
hyperkalemia - ANSWER: Electrolyte imbalance
Systole - ANSWER: Ventricular contraction and push blood out of heart
Diastole - ANSWER: Ventricles fill with blood
Aldosterone - ANSWER: causes retention of water, which increases blood volume.
Diuretics - ANSWER: decrease blood pressure by decreasing blood volume
Arbs - ANSWER: Should not be combined with ACEI
Loop diuretics - ANSWER: Causes hypokalemia
Spironolactone - ANSWER: Decreases aldosterone release
Loop diuretics - ANSWER: Work to excrete sodium from the loop of henle, very effective (excretes
25%)
Thiazides diuretics - ANSWER: Works in distal convulated tubule
Hctz - ANSWER: Diuretic given to decrease bp
Sodium - ANSWER: Water follows
Lisinopril - ANSWER: ACE inhibitor
