Antiplatelets

Beta-blockers

Cholesterol control (statins)

Diet and lifestyle changes

Stabilize with ACE inhibitors.

★ MI Complications

Common Complications:

VSD: Pansystolic murmur

Mitral Regurgitation: Rupture of papillary muscles

Tamponade: Free wall rupture

Heart Failure or Cardiogenic Shock

Most Confirmatory Investigation: Echocardiography

Most Appropriate Next Step: Stabilize hemodynamics

Most Appropriate Intervention: Urgent surgical repair for mechanical complications



Mnemonic: "C.R.A.S.H."

CHF or cardiogenic shock

Rupture (VSD, free wall)

Arrhythmias

Stabilize with supportive care

Hemodynamic collapse = surgery.

★ Marfan Syndrome and Aortic Dissection

Marfan Syndrome:

Scenario: Tall stature, arachnodactyly, and lens dislocation + On exam: high-arched palate, pectus deformity + Investigation shows: aortic root dilation on echocardiography >>

Most Likely Dx: Marfan Syndrome

Most Common Cause: FBN1 gene mutation

Most Confirmatory Investigation: Genetic testing

Most Appropriate Next Step: Echocardiography screening for aortic complications

Most Appropriate Intervention: Beta-blockers or losartan; prophylactic aortic surgery



Aortic Dissection:

Scenario: Tearing chest pain radiating to the back + On exam: unequal BP in limbs + Investigation shows: widened mediastinum on CXR >>

Most Likely Dx: Aortic Dissection

Most Common Causes: Hypertension, connective tissue disorders

Most Confirmatory Investigation: CT angiography

Most Appropriate Next Step: Control BP with IV beta-blockers

Most Appropriate Intervention: Type A → urgent surgery; Type B → medical management
