#Erythromelalgia
#Defination:_
It is a rare vascular peripheral pain disorder in which blood vessels, usually in the lower extremities or hands, are episodically blocked (frequently on and off daily), then become hyperemic an painfull
#Causes:
*Primary erythromelalgia ...could be idiopathic or genetic
**secondary erythromelalgia include the following:
_Myeloproliferative disorders
_Medications
_Infection
_Mushroom poisoning
Most reported cases of secondary erythromelalgia are due to myeloproliferative disorders with thrombocytosis (most commonly polycythemia vera or essential thrombocytosis

Acute inferior stemi due to LCX occlusion because ste in 11=111

Cardiomedical group

11 Jan, 21:52


CULPRIT In inferior STEMI
1_RCA occlusion is suggested by:
*ST elevation in lead III > lead II
*Presence of reciprocal ST depression in lead I
*Signs of right ventricular infarction: STE in V1 and V4R
2_Circumflex occlusion is suggested by:
*ST elevation in lead II = lead III
*Absence of reciprocal ST depression in lead I
*Signs of lateral infarction: ST elevation in the lateral leads I and aVL or V5-6
(NB. Relative Q-wave depth in leads II and III is not useful in determining the culprit artery. Both RCA and LCx occlusion produce a similar pattern of Q wave changes, often with deeper Q waves seen in lead III)

#Culprit_Artry_in_inferior_STEMI
inferior STEMI can result from occlusion of all three coronary arteries:
1_The vast majority (~80%) of inferior STEMIs are due to occlusion of the dominant right coronary artery (RCA).
2-Less commonly (around 18% of the time), the culprit vessel is a dominant left circumflex artery (LCx).
3_Occasionally, inferior STEMI may result from occlusion of a “type III” or “wraparound” left anterior descending artery (LAD). This produces the unusual pattern of concomitant inferior and anterior ST elevation.
While both RCA and circumflex occlusion may cause infarction of the inferior wall, the precise area of infarction in each case is slightly different:
1_RCA occlusion is suggested by:
*ST elevation in lead III > lead II
*Presence of reciprocal ST depression in lead I
*Signs of right ventricular infarction: STE in V1 and V4R
2_Circumflex occlusion is suggested by:
*ST elevation in lead II = lead III
*Absence of reciprocal ST depression in lead I
*Signs of lateral infarction: ST elevation in the lateral leads I and aVL or V5-6
(NB. Relative Q-wave depth in leads II and III is not useful in determining the culprit artery. Both RCA and LCx occlusion produce a similar pattern of Q wave changes, often with deeper Q waves seen in lead III)

#Non invasive investigation for myocarditis ?
*Echocardiography: to exclude other causes of heart failure.

*Antimyosin scintography: to identify myocardial inflammation
*Cardiac angiography to rule out coronary ischemia.

Anticoagulation with sever thrombocytopenia
Khaled Haj Said
Anticoagulation is generally contraindicated when platelet count <50000
But in practice we can order anticoagulation even when it's less than 50000
If>50000: full dose anticoagulation
In between 30000 and 50000: half dose
If less than 30000: we should hold or ovoid anticoagulation
In case of acute thrombosis, full anticoagulation is often indicates with platelet transfusion to maintain the platelet count above 50000

#The_Wells_criteria_for_pulmonary_embolism
is a risk stratification score and clinical decision rule to estimate the probability for acute pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients in which history and examination suggests acute PE is a diagnostic possibility. It provides a pre-test probability which, if deemed unlikely, can then be used in conjunction with a negative D-dimer to rule out PE avoiding imaging
#Pulmonary_Embolism_Wells_Score
*Symptoms of DVT (3 points)
*No alternative diagnosis better explains the illness (3 points)
*Tachycardia with pulse > 100 (1.5 points)
*Immobilization (>= 3 days) or surgery in the previous four weeks (1.5 points)
*Prior history of DVT or *pulmonary embolism (1.5 points)
*Presence of hemoptysis (1 point)
Presence of malignancy (1 point)
#Interpretation
Score > 6: High probability
Score >= 2 and <= 6: Moderate probability
Score < 2: Low Probability
