Picture slides
ECG reading
How to examine the CVS
Assessment of patient with breathlessness,
chest pain, palpitations, syncope



51 yr old man
Admitted with pyrexia, shivering and feeling
unwell
Has a heart murmur on examination








Murmur with pyrexia
Positive blood cultures
Splinter hge, Roth spot, Oslers nodes,
Janeway lesions, splenomegaly, microscopic
haematuria
Strep Viridans, Staph Aureus, others
IV antibiotics via Hickman line for 6 weeks
Valve surgery
Prosthetic valve endocarditis
Tricuspid valve affected in IVDA




53 yr old lady
Presents to clinic with SOBOE
Has Hx of rheumatic fever
Cardiac murmur audible on auscultation





Rheumatic almost always
Loud SI and MDM
Early pulmonary hypertension and secondary
TR
AF common
Remember that all valvular heart disease has
rheumatic fever as a cause except isolated
AS.




70 yr old lady Presents to clinic
Has been hypertensive for years
SOBOE for 3 years- didn’t see doctors
Orthopnoea and more recently PND





CCF signs: raised JVP, ankle oedema,
enlarged liver
Left heart failure signs: S3 gallop, basal
crackles, pulsus alternans
Ascites, bilateral pleural effusions in
advanced CCF
Echocardiography, CXR, BNP
Loop diuretic, ACE/ARB, B blocker,
Spironolactone/eplerenone




65 yr old
Admitted with severe central CP for 2 hrs
Sweaty and clammy
BP 90/60, Pulse 50/min, SR



Aspirin 300mg + Prasugrel 60 mg loading
IV morphine
Primary PCI




49 yr old smoker
CP for 30 min, improved with IV Morphine
Now comfortable, normal BP and pulse
Troponin T elevated






Therapeutic clexane
Aspirin + clopidpgrel
Atorvastatin 80 mg od
Beta blocker
IV Nitrates and Tirofiban if needed
PCI within max 72 hrs



76 yr old man
Severe CP 7 days ago for 3 hrs
Admitted now with SOB, no CP



Needs coronary angio but more electively
PCI may not be needed
Discharge on secondary prevention drugs: BB,
aspirin, clopidogrel (1 month if no stent and
missed STEMI), statin, ACE, eplerenone (if
LVEF<40%)



25 yr old lady, non smoker
Flu like illness for 7 days
Sharp CP on inspiration for 24 hrs, better on
sitting forward




Usually viral
Check viral titres, inflammatory markers
(CRP), autoimmune profile
Echo to excluse pericardial effusion
Treat with NSAIDS like Ibuprofen, naproxen
etc for 7 days





75 yr old man collapsed at Tesco
CPR given by Tesco staff
Ambulance arrives in 3 mins
Man breathing spontaneously, BP 110/70,
Pulse 70 min irregular
ECGS X 2 done by ambulance personnel








If haemdynamic compromise DC shock
If stable IV Metoprolol/Esmolol, IV
Amiodarone via a central line followed by oral
Check for QT prolongation on ECG
Check electrolytes to exclude hypokalaemia,
hypomagnesaemia and hypocalcaemia
Assess LV function by echo
Only Amio and BB safe if LV function poor
Troponin T, Coronary angio even if Trop T
normal
Consider ICD

Gentleman suddenly has cardiac arrest again



Emergency DC shock
Check all as for VT
ICD



28 yr old lady admitted with sudden onset
palpitations
No CP or SOB
Has had such episodes before- usually has
them terminated by IV injection in A&E.



Carotid sinus massage, valsalva
IV Adenosine, IV Verapamil
DC shock-usually not required



74 yr old man
Severe central CP for 2 hrs with sweating
Stable BP and pulse

Treat as STEMI




63 yr old hypertensive lady
Has had on and off palpitations for months
This morning noticed palpitations
Later developed slurred speech with
weakness on the right side





Rate control
Anticoagulate (CHADS2 VASC SCORE)
Consider cardioversion
If onset less than 72 hrs direct cardioversion
If onset>72 hrs or unclear TOE+CV or
elective CV after at least 4 weeks of
anticoagulation
