| Question | Answer |
| What are the characteristics, signs and symptoms of a MI? | 1 - Severe prolonged chest discomfort or pressure that may radiate to the arms, back and neck. 2 - Nausea, sweating and vomiting 3 - Increased troponin levels 4 - ST segment elevation |
| What are the diagnostic characteristics of an MI on an ECG? | 1 - Changes in ECG leads over area of infarction 2 - ST segment elevation and T-Wave inversion 3 - Pronounced Q-wave |
| What 2 variables determine CV mortality after an MI? | 1 - Extent of left ventricle damage (Reduced Ejection fraction) 2 - Extent of myocardial ischemia |
| What do you see on an ECG when an exercise test tests positive for ischemia? | ST-segment depression greater than 2mm |
| List the criteria used to stratify people into low-risk after an MI | 1 - Uncomplicated MI or CABG 2 - Functional capacity > 8 METs 3 - Normal resting ECG (no LV damage or complex arrhythmias) 4 - Ejection fraction greater than 50% 5 - Longer than 1 year since MI |
| List the criteria used to stratify people into moderate-risk after an MI | 1 - Functional capacity 5-8METs 2 - A cardiogenic shock in the past 6 months 3 - 6 months-1 year since MI 4 - Failure to comply with exercise prescription 5 - Significant ischemia with exercise of 2-3METs 6 - Exercise-induced ST depression greater than 2mm |
| List the criteria used to stratify people into high-risk after an MI | 1 - Severely depressed LV function (EF<30%) 2 - Functional capacity < 5 METs 3 - Cardiogenic Shock 4 - Exertional hypotension 5 - MI or CABG <6 months 6 - Continued ischemia 7 - Ventricular arrhythmias 8 - Exercise-induced ST segment depression |
| List six risk factors for CAD, and one negative risk factor | 1 - Cigarette smoking 2 - Family history 3 - Impaired glucose tolerance 4 - Hyperlipidemia 5 - Hypertension 6 - Sedentary lifestyle 7(Positive) - High serum HDL |
