Predisposing Cardiac Diseases
Predisposing Cardiac Diseases
• Myocardial infarction• Chronic ischemia• Cardiomyopathy• Arrhythmias• Diastolic dysfunction• Valvular diseases
– Aortic Stenosis– Mitral Stenosis– Mitral Regurgitation

Cardiac Physiology(remember this?)
Cardiac Physiology(remember this?)
• CO = SV x HR
• HR: parasympathetic and sympathetic tone
• SV: preload, afterload, contractility
• CO = SV x HR
• HR: parasympathetic and sympathetic tone
• SV: preload, afterload, contractility
PreloadPreload
• Def: Passive stretch of muscle prior to contraction
• Measurement: Swan-Ganz– LVEDP
• Really a function of LVEDV• Affected by compliance
– Low compliance = higher LVEDP @ lower LVEDV– False high estimate of preload
• Frank-Starling right?
• Def: Passive stretch of muscle prior to contraction
• Measurement: Swan-Ganz– LVEDP
• Really a function of LVEDV• Affected by compliance
– Low compliance = higher LVEDP @ lower LVEDV– False high estimate of preload
• Frank-Starling right?
AfterloadAfterload
• Def: Force opposing/stretching muscle after contraction begins
• Measurement: SVR• Really a function of:
– SVR– Chamber radius (dilated
cardiomyopathies)– Wall thickness (hypertrophy)
• Def: Force opposing/stretching muscle after contraction begins
• Measurement: SVR• Really a function of:
– SVR– Chamber radius (dilated
cardiomyopathies)– Wall thickness (hypertrophy)
ContractilityContractility
• Def: Normal ability of the muscle to contract at a given force for a given stretch, independent of preload or afterload forces
• In other words:– How healthy is your heart muscle?
• Ischemia, Hypertrophy (?), Muscle loss

Classifying Heart FailureClassifying Heart Failure
• Anatomically– Left versus Right
• Physiologically– Systolic versus Diastolic
• Functionally– How symptomatic is your patient?

Left versus Right FailureLeft versus Right Failure
Left Heart Failure- Dyspnea- Dec. exercise tolerance- Cough- Orthopnea- Pink, frothy sputum
Left Heart Failure- Dyspnea- Dec. exercise tolerance- Cough- Orthopnea- Pink, frothy sputum
Right Heart Failure- Dec. exercise tolerance- Edema- HJR / JVD- Hepatomegaly- Ascites
Right Heart Failure- Dec. exercise tolerance- Edema- HJR / JVD- Hepatomegaly- Ascites
Systolic versus DiastolicSystolic versus Diastolic
• Systolic– “can’t pump”– Aortic Stenosis– HTN– Aortic Insufficiency– Mitral Regurgitation– Muscle Loss
• Ischemia• Fibrosis• Infiltration
• Systolic– “can’t pump”– Aortic Stenosis– HTN– Aortic Insufficiency– Mitral Regurgitation– Muscle Loss
• Ischemia• Fibrosis• Infiltration
• Diastolic- “can’t fill”– Mitral Stenosis– Tamponade– Hypertrophy– Infiltration– Fibrosis
• Diastolic- “can’t fill”– Mitral Stenosis– Tamponade– Hypertrophy– Infiltration– Fibrosis
Clinical DataClinical Data
• CXR– Kerley’s lines : A and B– Pulmonary Edema– Cephalization– Pleural Effusions (bilateral)
• EKG– Left atrial enlargement– Arrhythmias– Hypertrophy (left or right)

Treatment of CHFTreatment of CHF
• Treat Precipitating Factor(s)!!!!
• Adjust Heart Rate• Decrease Preload• Decrease Afterload• Increase Contractility• Increase Oxygenation
