Cardiology

Subject : health-sciences
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

12. What is indicated when CO and venous return are equal?






13. What other sign is often present with congenital long QT syndrome - why?






14. Equilibration of diastolic pressures in all 4 chambers - decreased CO from compression of heart by fluid in pericardium






15. in the JVP - What is the v wave?






16. What is association with fixed S2 splitting - does not increase with inspiration

22. immune mediated transmural vasculitis with fibrinoid necrosis - small and medium vessels - renal and viscera - not pulm arteries - hep B seropos in 30% of pts






23. What does the atria release in response to inc blood volume and atrial pressure






24. In an anteroseptal infarct - which artery is effected - and which leads show Q waves?

28. How are sarcomeres added in concentric hypertrophy?






29. Which class of drugs decreases afterload?






30. What is the machine like murmur? What is the heart pathology and the predisposing causes






31. segmental thrombosing vasculitis of small and medium vessels in smokers with intermittent claudication - superficial nodular phlebitis - raynaud's - gangrene and severe pain - autoamputation of digits is possible
