No


What is interior infarction?

An inferior, not interior, infarction is a subclassification of a heart attack. An inferior myocardial infarction occurs when there is a blockage in the inferior wall of a coronary artery.


Inferior wall ischemia?

An inferior wall mycardial infarction is a heart attack involving the inferior portion of the left ventricle, and in many cases the right ventricle. This is caused by occlusion of the right coronary artery. This can also indicate ischemia (poor oxygenation) of the AV node and bundle of HIS, as these structures are also supplied by the right coronary. An inferior wall MI can be seen in the inferior leads II, III, and AVF.


What is inferior wall mild hypokinesia?

underactive contracyin of heart muscle


Ptotic kidney and ptosis is the same?

Ptosis in relation to the kidnery, is when the fatty material surrounding the kidneys is reduced or too meager in amount, the kidneys are less securely anchored to the body wall and may drop to a lower or more inferior position in the abdominal cavity.


What does abnormal myocardial perfusion scan with a small area of decreased perfusion on stress imaging anterior lateral wall mean?

It could be an indication of a blocked coronary artery, however the definitive proof would be a cardiac cath to actually visualize the flow in the vessel and see if it is something that needs to be intervened on.


What type of heat loss is reduced by cavity wall insulation?

What wall forms most of the inferior border of the heart?

the inferior border of the heart is formed by both the right and leftventricles, but the inferior (diaphragmatic) surface of the heart isprimarilymade from the Leftventricle. Kaplen Anatomy 2012, section 3 gross anatomy, page 212.


What tissue does the inferior epigastric artery supply?

Why will you not give morphine in inferior wall myocardial infarction?

Morphine decreases pre-load and after-load and because the Inferior wall is effected the right ventricle is effected. If you do not have enough blood entering the right ventricle when the area is necrotic to begin with you will not be pumping enough blood to perfuse sufficiently. In addition the decreased after-load in in conjunction with the decreased blood pressure caused by the failure of the right ventricle there will not be enough "back-flow" in the cardiac vascular system. In summation if can cause bottoming out of a patient's blood pressure and further cardiac hypo-perfusion. In some cases it has been shown to work if a normal saline or ringers lactate bolus is infused prior to morphine administration.


Where are baroreceptors located?

There are baroreceptors located in the aorta and at the carotid bifurcation. These function to modulate the cardiac output and maintain normal blood pressure and an adequate perfusion pressure to the brain.
