Cardivascular

Acute conornary syndrome
A condition when the blood supply to the heart muscle is reduced or blocked usually by fat deposits
Acute and syndrome refer to the sudden symptoms from coronary artery narrowing or occlusion
Agina discomfort that worsens without exertion. Impairs cardiac function but hasnt caused cell death
Unstable agina
When a portion of the heart muscle dies from lack of adequate blood supply (Heart Attack)
Myocardial Infarction
Chest pain, pain spreads quickly to the jaw, left shoulder/ arm, abdomen pain, shortness of breath. 20% of patients have no symptoms
Signs & Symptoms
Aging, family history of heart disease, smoking, diabties, hypertension, high cholestrol, obesity
Risk Factors
Blood clot, Coronary artery embolism, coronoary spasm, coronary artyery dissection
Most common cause
Aortic Aneurysm & Dissection
Two types of life threatening injuries that occur in the aorta
A weakened section of the aortic wall begins to dilate into a balloon shape, outward from the pressure exterted by the blood flow
Aortic Aneurysm
Shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing, if raptured can cause severe back pain, dizziness, "ripping sensation" in the chest
Signs & Symptoms
When a tear occurs in the inner lining of the aorta and blood enters causing a seperation of layers in the aortic wall
Aortic Dissection
Severe in pain in either back or chest depending on tear,
Signs & Symptoms
Type A & Type B
If the dissection is in In the Ascending Aorta, Its type A
All other dissections are called type B
Thromboembolism
When a blood clot forms in the veins and travels around the body blocking blood flow
When a blood clot forms in the arms or legs
Deep Vein Thromboembolism
When the blood clot travels through the veins to the lungs
Pulmonary Embolism
When the body has a wound or cut, a clot forms on the inside to heal the wound, when the wound is healed, the clot dissolves, but when it doesnt it can gorw causing a blockage in the vein. Blood clots can aslo occur without a wound
Causes
Injury to vein, infection, slow blood from immobilaztion, genetics, birth control
RISK FACTORS
Swelling, Redness, chest pain
Venous means veins Thrombo means Blood clot Embolism means circulating particles that causes an obstruction
Signs & Symptoms
Heart Failure
When the right, left or both ventricles are failing to adequately eject enough blood for the bodies needs
When the left ventricle cannot pump blood out of the left ventricle effectively reducing blood flow to the arteries and perfusion
Left Ventricular Failure
When the right ventricle fails, blood backs up into the venous system
Right ventricular failure
From valve disorder, hypertension, pulmonary embolism, cardiac rythm disturbance, pregnancy, viral illnesses or drugs
Causes
Severe dyspnea, tachycardia, anxiety, tachypnea, cynosis
