Pulmonary stenosis

…pulmonic) stenosis Pulmonary stenosis is virtually always a consequence of congenital heart disease. The stenosis can be fixed or dynamic, depending on the underlying etiology…

Sepsis and septic shock: quick reference for the first hour

…a vasopressor and early source control. Sepsis is a dynamic condition. Investigation and treatment must therefore proceed in parallel and must not wait for complete…

ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI): Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Management

…characterized by the gradual accumulation of inert cholesterol debris, modern vascular biology has redefined atherosclerosis as a dynamic, immune mediated fibroproliferative response to endothelial injury …

Acute severe asthma in adults: quick reference

…by bronchospasm, mucosal oedema and mucus plugging. Expiratory flow limitation causes air trapping and dynamic hyperinflation. The consequences are increased work of breathing, exhaustion and…

Diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycaemic state: quick reference

…circulatory shock require a specific protocol and early specialist involvement. DKA and HHS are dynamic conditions. Treatment must be guided by the clinical response and…

🟠 Mean arterial pressure (MAP) calculator

…MAP is often estimated using the formula: MAP ≈ Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) + 1/3 × (Systolic Blood Pressure [SBP] – DBP) This formula accounts for the longer…

Acute Coronary Syndrome: Definitions and Initial Triage

…the criteria for ischaemic myocardial infarction. It may be acute, when serial troponin values show a dynamic change, or chronic, when troponin elevation persists without…

Blood Pressure Targets in Older and Frail Adults

…patients. Frailty is characterized by reduced physiological reserve and increased vulnerability to adverse outcomes. It is dynamic and may improve or worsen with illness, treatment…

Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced Ejection Fraction

…persistently mildly reduced systolic function. This dynamic nature makes prior imaging particularly important when interpreting a current LVEF of 41–49%. Diagnostic phenotype Criterion HFmrEF…
