Podcasts about calcium channel blockers

This week, please join author Stephan Rosenkranz, Editorialist Lewis Rubin, and Associate Editor Kelly Chin as they discuss the article "Positive Vasoreactivity Testing in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Therapeutic Consequences, Treatment Patterns, and Outcomes in the Modern Management Era" and the Editorial "Is There a Role for Calcium Channel Blockers in the Contemporary Treatment Paradigm for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension?"

Calcium is one of the ions that move across the cellular membrane during cardiac contraction and relaxation. The primary use of calcium channel blockers in ACLS is for the treatment of stable, narrow complex tachycardias refractory to Adenosine and to lower the blood pressure of ischemic stroke patients with severe hypertension.Use of calcium channel blockers for SVT refractory to Adenosine and A-Fib or A-Flutter with RVR.

Hypertension treatments are really about a few drug classes: ACEIs and ARBs, Beta Blockers, Calcium Channel Blockers, Diuretics, and a few more. This episode has a few mnemonics and a focus on prefixes and suffixes that will help you remember them.  Need more help; you can find many of my mnemonics books on Audible that you might be able to get your first for free if you've never had one before.  https://www.audible.com/pd/Memorizing-Pharmacology-Mnemonics-Audiobook/B07DLGC8MP?source_code=AUDFPWS0223189MWT-BK-ACX0-118296&ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_118296_rh_us

Along with Sodium, Potassium, and Magnesium; Calcium is one of the ions that move across the cellular membrane during cardiac contraction and relaxation. ACLS's indications for use of calcium channel blockers is limited to stable tachycardias refractory to vagal maneuvers and Adenosine. There are several calcium channel blockers available so providers need to be familiar with their organization's preferred choice. Contraindications for use.

High blood pressure is often called “the silent killer” due to the fact that so many people don't realize they have high blood pressure until it is too late.High blood pressure is often called “the silent killer” due to the fact that so many people don't realize they have high blood pressure until it is too late.  Persistently high blood pressure can lead to kidney disease, dementia, heart disease, stroke, arterial disease, and vision problems. Conventional medicine uses medications for high blood pressure such as Diuretics, Beta Blockers, ACE Inhibitors, Calcium Channel Blockers, or Aldosterone Blockers. These medications are often effective. But can also cause many side effects such as heart muscle dysfunction, asthma, low heart rate, irregular heartbeat, dry mouth, kidney dysfunction, swelling of ankles, and rapid heartbeat. These negative side effects can often be avoided by following a more natural approach based on excellent scientific evidence.

May Yen, toxicologist, talks about Digoxin and CCB toxicity in older adults. For the full description and to leave comments, please go to: http://gempodcast.com/2016/02/11/geriatric-toxicology-part-3-digoxin-and-ccbs/ Connect on twitter: @gempodcast Digoxin and Calcium Channel Blockers are both medications that can cause unstable bradycardias. Patients who overdose on them can present extremely ill-appearing, and require rapid intervention and stabilization. In this final geri-tox episode, Dr. May Yen talks about identifying and managing patients, particularly older adults, with these overdoses. Who needs digibind? How much insulin is used in high-dose insulin euglycemic therapy? What are some last ditch efforts for severe calcium channel blocker overdoses? We also drop some board review pearls. For example, those halos classically associated with cardiac glycosides such as digoxin seem to be much more prevalent on board exams than in real life.
