  #112

i started cardiology today,finished IHD,feeling very tired now,planing to wakeup at night to do hematology ,have few doubts ,Is male sex a risk factor fro Corornary artery disease? diltiazem reduces recurrence of subendocardial infarct?
IS CABG used in angina only?
when is catheetrization done after ASA,BB,Nitrates? GL with ur study nithu.

  #113

hi still doing UW, its taking lots of time.Scores are now in 60s
Sima,
I think CABG for CAD , mainly if u have 3 vessel disease.More effective in diabetic patients .Catheterisation , will help u to identify the type of disease whether it is triple disease- more for diagnostic purpose.ASA, bbb, are for longterm benefits, improve the survival after an acute MI.This is what i understood, any inputs always welcome.Risk factor CAD - females have a cardioprotective effect from estrogen so men have more chance.I am not sure about diltiazem.

  #114
