MEDICINE SHELF EXAM REVIEW

1. PFTS a. First thing to look at is FEV1/FVC i. Normal: >70-75% 1. FVC normal

1.

FVC LOW a. LOOK AT tlc b. TLC high air trapping c. TLC i. low with low FVC small lungs, pure restrictive defect 1. DLCO a. Normal neuromuscular, chest wall defect b. Low interstitial lung disease ii. Not normal look at FVC on its own 1. FVC is high then obstruction and nothing else 2. Low FVC = restriction a. TLC i. High in obstruction with air trapping ii. low means he has restrictive component 1. DLCO a. Normal asthma because doesnt destroy alveolar membrane b. DLCO low then he has emphysema > COPD

2.

Look at DLCO a. Normal your normal b. Abnormal pulmonary vasculature problem

2. MI

b. Obstructive i. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis ii. Asthma iii. Bronchiectasis iv. Cystic fibrosis c. Restrictive i. Interstitial lung disease, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis ii. Sarcoidosis iii. Obesity, including obesity hypoventilation syndrome iv. Scoliosis v. Neuromuscular disease, such as muscular dystrophy or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) d. Mixed a. Door to balloon time hit the door of the ER to when cardiologists opening up balloon in coronary artery <90 minutes PCI percutaneous coronary intervention, any intervention not necessarily a stent. Stent preferred for STEMI b. Fibrinolytics clot busters streptokinase, urokinase when you cant cath. Door to needle time <12 hours. c. TPA i. Stroke within 3 hours within seen normal hour, head CT in first 24 hr is normal ii. Massive PE hemodynamically unstable, hypoxic, tachypneic, Stat CT angio no time limit
a. STEMI cath on spot stent it i. 1 avl v5 v6 left circumflex lateral wall ii. anterioseptal wall lad iii. posterior right circumflex iv. 2 3 avf rca inferior v. v1-v4 0 lad anterior

3.

Stress versus cath

4. Bleeding disorders a. PT i. Extrinsic pathway ii. Factor 7 and 3 b. PTT i. Intrinsic pathway ii. 10 5 20 1 13 common iii. ptt is everything else 12 11 9 8 iv. order 1:1 mixing study when isolated high pt or ptt 1. deficient in factor then normalizes 2. inhibitor then it does not normalize a. high PTT, does not correct with 1:1 and prothrombic lupus anticoagulant. And if they have evidence antiphospholipid syndrome c. Von willebrands i. Teenager who has had menorrhagia ii. VWF bound to factor 8, helps platelets bidn to endothelial wall and bind to each other. It is a connector between coagulation and platelet side. iii. PTT high because bound to factor 8 then half life of factor 8 go down so functional factor 8 deficiency. iv. PT is normal d. Factor V Leidin e. Ristocetin assay messed up then platelet function order and ifnormal then not vWD f. Hemophilia A i. Factor 8 deficiency ii. XLR g. Hemophilia B i. Factor 9 deficiency h. Hemophilia C i. Factor 11 deficiency i. Bernard soulier - platelet adhesion issue so platelet number normal but platelet function assay is jacked maybe factor 7 and ddavp? j. Glanzmens thormbasthemia platelet aggregation issue so platelet number normal but platelet function assay is jacked IIB IIIA . give leukocyte depleted blood with platelets. k. DIC - consumptive coagulopathy i. PT PTT high ii. Platelets low iii. Fibrinogen low must be low to diagnose DIC iv. D-dimer high measures breaking up clots 5. TTP - Opposite of VWF a. Deficiency in ADAMST13 b. AMS, fever, TCP, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, AKI c. HUS ecoli 6. SBP PMN >250 7. SAAG a. Serum albumin ascites albumin i. <1.1 implies that ascites high it is inflammatory something is spilling protine, also cuaed by nephrotic syndrome ii. >1.1 hydrostatic pressure, portal hypertension b. 40 year old women with ascities and pleural effusion ovarian cancer (possible benign) meigs syndrome 8. heparin vs warfarin a. therapeutic b. prophylaxis prevention of PE and DVT c. DVT/PE treat 6-9 months i. Start with heparin or lovenox

1. Heparin is unfractionated. Blocks factor 2 and 10 in 1:1 ratio. 2. Lovenox is low molecular weight. Lovenox sticks around longer. Lovenox does it in 3:1 ratio. 3. Dont give lovenox in renal failure, give heparin. ii. Warfarin 1. If you dont give heparin then skin necrosis- affects protein C 2. Give heparin 5-7 days 3. INR 2-3 iii. Filter dvt with contraindication for anticoagulation like a brain bleed. Once head bleed stabilizes then give them anticoagulant again. Filter is a temporary solution. d. Afib i. Blood not moving so make clot and that clot can goes to brain ii. Usually with warfarin iii. INR 2-3 iv. Do you have to anticoagulate patients with AFib? So figure it out via CHADS2 risk; CHF, HTN, Age >75, Diabetes, Stroke, 1. 0-1 no anticoagulate 2. 2 consider 3. 3+ anticoagulate v. pt comes in with afib and cardiovert, do we anticoagulate? 1. Previous episode? Anticoagulate 2. Reversible cause of afib no anticoagulation 3. If cardiovert then HAVE TO anticoagulate for one month minimum. e. Valve prosthetic i. Mechanical 1. Aortic goal INR 2-3 2. Mitral goal INR 2.5-3.5 3. Guy who needs procedure witih mechanical valve then take of Coumadin but start a heparin drip because short lived and stop heparin right before procedure and start heparin back when its safe an dultiamtely shift to Coumadin ii. Bioprosthetic 9. AFIB causes a. PHEART pericarditis, htn/heart attack, embolism, alcohol/OSA, rheumatic heart disease, thyrotoxicosis 10. Interstitial lung diseases a. ILD 2/2 anotehr disease or known cause i. Rheumatic ii. Pneumoconiosis b. Idiopathic interstitial pneumonia i. IPF 1. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis short of breath for years, no pillow orthopnea, no heart failure, smoker, FINE bibasilar crackles, PFTs DLCO bad. High resolution CT scan honeycombing ii. Everything else c. Granulomatous disease i. Sarcoidosis noncaseating granulomas, hilar adenopathy, erythema nodosum, African America, SOB d. Other/lymphagio/pulmonary non histiocytosis 11. HTN <120/80 pick higher number out of systolic and diastolic a. 3 separate readings b. first line therapy i. no comorbidities thiazide diuretics ii. diabetes or CKD aceI if cough then ARB iii. heart failure ACEI, betablocker, NO CCB because it causes fluid retention and then you dont want that for CHF.

iv. CAD BB ACEI, CCB v. If these dont work then hydralazine or clonidine c. Goal i. No comorb <140/90 ii. CKD diabetes <130/80 Hypertensive urgency vs emergency a. Emergency end organ damage b. Give labetolol CCB nifedipine/nicardopine drip c. Can give clonidine or hydralazine but not the best Diabetes a. Diagnosis each confirmed two times i. Random glucose >200 at any time in prescence of symptoms only one not need repeattesting ii. Fasting glucose >= 126 iii. Hga1c >=6.5 iv. Oral glucose tolerance test >= 200 b. Goal of A1C <7 c. Every year eye exam and check his feet i. Feet vanc +zosin or ceftazadime or cefepime something that covers pseudomonas d. Complication i. Macro 1. CVD ii. Micro 1. Retinopathy 2. Neuropathy numbness tingling give gabapentin 3. Nephropathy a. First sign start spilling protein b. ACEI decreases pressure on efferent arteriole 4. Treatment iin order of giving it to patient a. Diet and exercise b. Metformin SE lactic acidosis, no metformin with Cr >1.6 c. Sulfonylurea - Glypizide glyburide d. Insulin i. Long acting glargine and levomar ii. Somoby effect 2 am glucose low, donns phenomen when dont give enough insulin e. Hold ACE in AKI but give in CKD f. DKA i. First thing give fluids ii. Insulin drip iii. Add dextrose to fluid once glucose starts going down because anion gap may not fully close so drive glucose into cells and shuts off signals for ketogenesis iv. Transition from IV to subq v. if the potassium is 5.5 is he really hyperkalemic == NO hes vomited it and hes dry and RAAS activated which cause NA reabsorption and K excretion. K in blood stream and not in cells. So eventually add K into fluids 4-4.5 hours into treatment. ELECTROLYTES Na a. Hyponatremia N1V1 AMS weakness seizures CPM if correct to fast i. If seizures 3% saline hypertonic saline b. Hypernatremia seizures cerebral edema if correct too faste K a. Hypo weak paralyzed, give K EKG u waves, if you keep correcting and it doesnt go up give Mg. Lasix causes hypokalemia and hypomag.

b. Hyper peaked T waves, very pointy, PR bigger, QRS bigger like someone is taking EKG and stretching it out. Late finding also sign waves. 16. Mg 17. Ca a. Hyper lose DTRs like you do in pregnant women in mag land. b. Hypo spasms kinda like low calcium

Cushings disease (pituitary adenoma) ectopic ACTH tumor adrenal tumor a. ectopic is not suppressed by high dose suppression test but a pituitary tumor is so it will suppress cortisol levels b. if ACTH is low then adrenal tumor 28. episodic hypetension, flushing dizziness hypertension pheo dx with serum free metapneprhines and urine for confirmation tx alpha blockaged then beta blockage then surgery 29. epigastirc pain with nausea avomint glean forwards pancreatitis tx supportive and necrotizing then give antibiotcs gallstones alcohol
