MARK KLIMEK LECTURE #3 – CARDIAC

Calcium Channel Blockers are like Valium for your heart (calms your heart down)

CCB’s are negative inotropics, negative dromotropics, and negative chromotropics.

 Weaken, slow down, and depress the heart. Cardiac depressant.

They treat: A, A-A, and A-A-A

 Anti-hypertensive – relaxes heart and blood vessels – BP goes down

 Anti-Angina – relaxes the heart – decreases oxygen demand – pain goes away

 Anti-Atrial-Arrhythmia= it treats everything atrial related

= treats supra ventricular tachycardia (supra means above, above the ventricle is the atrial).

Side effects: Headache & Hypotension

Headache (vasodilation in the brain)

Hypotension (relaxes the heart and the blood vessels)

Monitor BP intermittently. If systolic is <100, hold!

Names of CCB’s:

 Names ending in “dipine” (You're dipping in the calcium channel)

amlodipine, felodipine, isradipine, nicardipine, nifedipine, nisoldipine

 Verapamil, Diltiazem, Cardizem [Cardizem = Continuous IV drip]

 For drip, monitor BP continuously. If systolic BP is 98 titrate it down.

Cardiac Arrhythmias (#03 – time13:33)

1. Normal sinus rhythm - Peaks of p waves are evenly spaced

2. V-fib - Chaotic squiggly line. No pattern

3. V-tach - Sharp peaks & jags. There's a pattern

4. Asystole - Flat line

5. Atrial Flutter

6. Atrial Fibrillation

7. PVCs
