Module Cardio-MI

A 66-year-old man with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is referred for office evaluation after a recent admission for an acute coronary syndrome. Which of the following statements is TRUE concerning chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease?
Patients with CKD are at increased risk of bleeding but decreased risk of thrombotic events when compared with normal individuals.
The outcomes of patients with CKD who present with acute coronary syndromes are similar to those of patients with normal renal function.
Renal dysfunction is the most significant independent predictor of mortality of patients in coronary care units.
Patients with CKD who present to the hospital with chest pain comprise a relatively low-risk group of acute coronary syndromes, with a cardiac event rate of < 5% at 30days.
Uremia is associated with enhanced platelet aggregation.
An 80-year-old woman is admitted with acute pulmonary edema on a background of progressive shortness of breath with exertional chest pain for 6 months. She has a history of renal impairment with an eGFR of 40 mL/min. She is initially commenced on IV furosemide with good effect. An echocardiogram reveals LVEF 40% with severe aortic stenosis (AS) with an estimated valve area of 0.7 cm2. What would you do next?
Add a beta-blocker
Perform angiography with a view to aortic valve replacement (AVR)/ transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Add an ACE inhibitor
Implant a CRT-D
Add a beta-blocker, Perform angiography with a view to aortic valve replacement (AVR)/ transcatheter aortic valve implantation
You get a phone call from the heart failure nurse specialist regarding a patient followed up in clinic for titration of medication. He has dilated cardiomyopathy with an EF of 30%. His most recent BP is 110/60 mmHg with heart rate 60 bpm. He is currently on bisoprolol 7.5 mg od and ramipril 5 mg od. His renal function test results have been phoned through to the specialist nurse: Na 136 mmol/L, K 5.5 mmol/L, urea 13 mmol/L, creatinine 270 μmol/L. (Baseline before titration of ACE inhibitor: Na 138 mmol/L, K 4.8 mmol/L, urea 8 mmol/L, creatinine 180 μmol/L.) What would be your advice?
Continue current medication and recheck U&E at 1 week
Stop ramipril and recheck U&E at 1 week
Add spironolactone and recheck U&E at 1 week
Halve dose of ramipril and recheck U&E at 1 week
Ž Stop all medication and recheck U&E at 1 week
A 57-year-old woman with known heart failure and EF 42% is reviewed in clinic. She is breathless on walking up one flight of stairs or half a mile on the flat. On examination, her BP is 130/90 mmHg and her heart rate is 75 bpm (SR, ECG QRS < 120 ms). Her chest is clear to auscultation. There are no signs of fluid overload. Her current medication is carvedilol 25 mg bd, furosemide 40 mg od, and digoxin 62.5 micrograms od. Her recent renal function tests are Na 141 mmol/L, K 5.1 mmol/L, urea 13.5 mmol/L, and creatinine 236 μmol/L. She has not previously tolerated an ACE inhibitor or spironolactone because of deteriorating renal function and hyperkalemia. What would you do next?
Add hydralazine and isosorbide dinitrate (H-ISDN)
Add candesartan
Add eplerenone
Add furosemide
Add ivabradine
A 65-year-old hypertensive non-diabetic has an eGFR < 40. Screening tests showed microalbuminuria and a normal renal ultrasound. Which class of antihypertensive medication should you start?
ACE inhibitor
Beta-blocker
Calcium-channel blocker
Thiazide diuretic
Angiotensin receptor blocker
A 52 year-old woman has been treated for several years with amlodipine and lisinopril for what has been presumed to be primary hypertension. She is seen by her GP having complained of persistent left loin pain. Her BP is 150/95 mmHg. She is tender in the left loin and both kidneys appear to be enlarged. On urine dipstick testing, there is microscopic haematuria. Which of the following is likely to be the most appropriate investigation at this point?
Urinary tract ultrasound
Abdominal and pelvic computed tomography (CT) scan
Microscopy of the urine (microbial and cytological)
Renal biopsy
Intravenous urogram
A 65-year-old diabetic with a creatinine of 1.6 was started on an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor for hypertension and presents to the emergency room with weakness. His other medications include a statin for hypercholesterolemia, a beta blocker and spironolactone for congestive heart failure, insulin for diabetes, and aspirin. Laboratory examinations include: K: 7.2 meq/L, Creatinine: 1.8, Glucose: 400 mg/dL, CPK: 400 IU/L. If this patient has a widened QRS on ECG, the first drug given is
Intravenous sodium bicarbonate
Intravenous calcium gluconate
Intravenous insulin
Polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate)
Furosemide (Lasilix)
An 80-year-old man presents with dyspnea and is found to have CHF caused by systolic dysfunction. He also has mild renal insufficiency, with a creatinine level of 1.4. Which of the following statements is true regarding ACE inhibitor therapy in this patient?
It is contraindicated because of his age
It is contraindicated because of his renal insufficiency
Angiotensin II receptor blockers are preferred for CHF in elderly patients
ACE inhibitor therapy can be started, provided it is accompanied by careful monitoring of his creatinine and potassium levels
ACE inhibitor therapy can be started but must be discontinued if his creatinine level rises above its current level
An 82-year-old woman with HTN and chronic renal failure (serum creatinine 3.5 mg/dL) is referred to you for the management of PAF. She has no other risk factors for coronary atherosclerosis and has wellpreserved ventricular function. Her ECG is essentially normal, with a QTcinterval of 400 msec. Which of the following drugs will be suitable for her rhythm management?
Sotalol 120 mg BID
Dofetilide 500 mcg BID
Amiodarone 200mg QD
Procainamide 1 gm TID
Propafenone 150 mg TID
A patient with renal failure (creatinine, 3.4 mg/dL) and thrombocytopenia (platelet count, 35,000mm3) presents to you with a pericardial effusion. He is hemodynamically stable. You are concerned about a paracardiac malignancy and would like to characterize the pericardial effusion further. What would be the best method of evaluating this possibility?
TEE
EBCT
MRI
Pericardial tap
TTE
