Cardiovascular disease

  1. There are two types of congenital heart disease: cyanotic and acyanotic. What is cyanotic heart disease?
    Disorder that cause insufficient amount of O2 in blood causing bluish-grey skin.
  2. What is the most common complication of Infective Endocarditis?
    Heart failure which results from sever valvular dysfunction.
  3. Pathologic feature of finger related to infective endocarditis?
    Clubbing finger
  4. What is AHA recommendation for IE about antibiotic prophylaxis?
    • Use antibiotic prophylaxis only in pt with high risk of adverse outcomes from endocarditis who undergo dental procedure that involve:
    • gingival tissue,
    • periapical region,
    • perforation of mucosa.

    Remember: anesthetic injection doesn't need antibiotic prophylaxis.
  5. Which endocarditis pateints need antibiotic prophylaxis (pt with high risk of adverse outcomes from endocarditis)?
    • Patients with:
    • 1. prosthetic cardiac valve
    • 2. cardiac transplant

    • 3. Previous Infective Endocarditis
    • 4. Congenital Heart Disease :
    • 4.1 unrepaired cyanotic CHD
    • 4.2 just gotten surgery for CHD - within 6 months
    • 4.3 CHD with residual defect
  6. Oral and IV antibiotic prophylaxis :
    • Amoxicillin 2 g oral
    • Ampicilin 2 g IM or IV
  7. Alternativ for pt allergic to penicillins :
    • Cephlexin 2 g oral
    • Cefazolin/ Ceftriazone 1 g IM or IV

    • Clindamycin 600 mg oral
    • Clindamycin Phosphate 600 mg IM or IV
  8. How long does patient need to take the antibiotic before the visit?
    30-60 minutes
  9. Characteristic of stable angina pectoris :
    • chest pain is predictable and reproducible
    • precipitated by physical efforts
    • relieved by rest and nitroglycerine
  10. Characteristic of unstable angina pectoris :
    • new onset, changing, more frequent, more intense
    • occur at rest/ precipitated by less effort
    • nitroglycerine doesn't relieve pain readily
  11. How can you tell when it is angina pectoris or acute myocardial infarction?
    • Angina pectoris is a brief pain, usually last 5-15 minutes.
    • Pt with myocardial infarction will have chest pain longer than 30 min, shortness of breath, arrhythmia, and doesn't respond to nitroglycerine.
  12. Medication used to treat the pt with stable angina pectoris:
    • Nitroglycerine (vasodilator) for acute pain + prophylaxis
    • Beta-blocker (↓BP then ↓O2 deman)
    • Calcium channel blocker (vasodilator + ↓♡) for stable
    • Antiplatelet (aspirin, clopidogrel)

    • Remember: for pt taking nonselective beta blocker:
    • limit epinephrine to 0.04mg (2 cart)
    • avoid impregnated retraction cord

    Remember2: If pt taking aspirin (or any platelet aggregation inhibitor), discontinuation of med. is not recomm.
  13. Surgery for pt with stable angina pectoris:
    • Revascularization:
    • - stenting
    • - coronary artery bypass grafting
  14. Medication used to treat acute myocardial infarction :
    • MONA:
    • - Morphine
    • - O2
    • - Nitroglycerine
    • - Aspirin 160-135 mg
    • Remember: when stable AMI pt will get surgery treatments (stent, graft)
  15. Dental management for pt with stable angina pectoris or Hx of MI later than 6 months
    • Short morning appointment
    • Semisupine (no supine : ↑ venous return)
    • Nitroglycerin readily available
    • Limit vasoconstrictor to 0.04 mg
  16. Antibiotic prophylaxis for pt with stent or graft:
    • Doesn't need! Antibiotic prophylaxos is not recommended fot pt with hx of:
    • coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
    • angioplasty
    • stent
  17. If pt with MI have pacemaker of implanted defibrillator, avoid use of:
    • electrosurgery
    • ultrasonic scalers

    Remember: antibiotic prophylaxis is not recommended
  18. Dental management for unstable angina pectoris or Hx of MI less than 6 months
    • Consult physician
    • Avoid elective care
  19. Pts with ischemic heart disease and congestive heart failure may take antiplatelet drugs. Dental surgery can be done when their PT and INR...
    • PT ≤ 2 times
    • INR ≤ 3.0 (some say 3.5)
