Getting to the root of Chest PainDifferential Diagnosis
Cardiac & Non Cardiac
By: Ms. Shanta Peter

Chest Pain-- cardiac or Not• Treat patient as though he is critical --- until
proved otherwise History• Risk factors, H/O IHD, previous Rxs , Previous chest pain • Pain- Heart burn - burning sensation – chest pain with
pressure /tightness
Remember ---– ……………treat with cause… there are many causes

Accuracy of Chest Pain Diagnosis Using the History and Physical Examination
Determining whether pain is • Sub-sternal, • Provoked by exertion• Relieved by rest or nitroglycerin helps to clarify whether it is ……………………1. Typical anginal pain (has all 3characteristics) 2. Atypical anginal pain (has 2 characteristics3. Nonanginal pain (has 1 characteristic).

Common Causes of Chest Pain • Aortic
• Esophageal/GI
• Lungs & Pleura
• Musculo-Skeletal
• Neurological • Psychological/ others
•
Aortic dissection, Aortic aneurism
Esophagitis, Esop. Spasm , esophageal tearPancreatitis, Biliary /GB disease , GERD, Peptic
Ulcer
Bronchospasm, PE, Pneumonia ,TB, Trachitis, Pleuritis, PneumThorax ,
Malignancy , Asthma.
Ost. Arthritis, Rib#, I. Costal Muscle injury, Costochondritis, Cerv. Disc Disease
Prolapsed disc, Herpez Zoster, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Panic Attack/Anxiety Disorders , Cocaine abuse

Chest Pain That Can Kill ….
• Acute Coronary –
Syndrome• Pulmonary- Embolism• Aortic- Dissection• Esophageal Rupture• Pneumothorax• Pneumonia
6
Sudden & Instantaneous Chest Pain
Tension Pneumthorax • Spontaneous
• Open
Pulm. Embolism DVT, Obesity, Pregnancy, Prolonged
immobilization, CHF ….
7
Pneumothorax
8
Pneumothorax Sharp C. Pain. Dyspnea ,absence of breath- sound in the affected side • Radionuclide studies – Gated pool • SPECT – Single proton emission computed Tomography • PET – Positron Emission Tomography Pulm. Embolism Sudden pleuretic substernal pain with dyspnea , T cardia , fever or cough , diaphoresis – mimic MI/angina • VQ Scan • D DIMER • Spiral CT-- best Diag – (Pneumonia )
9
Pneumonia • Infection of pulm. tissue – Interstitial spaces,
alveoli, bronchioles • Chest pain – pleuritic , come sin suddenly • Febrile – chills , cough with copious/blood
stained sputum • Rales--- rhonchi wheezes • Hypoxia
(Ca)

Sub sternal – epi-gastric Chest Pain intensified with swallowing
11Pan . C Cys.G U,DU
12
G IntestinalPancreatitis : Pain in the LUQ, substernal. Radiate to
back , difficulty in breathing, tachycardia, vomiting, worse in supine , better while leaning forward
• Cholecystitis : Pain in RUQ – precipitate by meal • Gastric Ulcer Pain Lt Epigastrium – radiation to back • Duodinal Ulcer Mid Epigastric pain – cramping- 2-4 hrs after meal (E rupture )
13
Esophageal Rupture Mallory–Weiss syndrome Sudden severe C. Pain – followed by vomiting, or UGI tract procedure
CXR: ( early )shows mediastinal or free peritoneal airHours to days later: widening of mediastinum, pleural effusion
14
Coronary Arteries
15
16
H .Disease begins when cholesterol, fatty material & Ca deposit
in the arteries. Atherosclerosis

Cardiac Chest Pain
• Dissecting Aortic aneurisms
• Cardiac Tamponade * Heart Failure• Peri/endo/myocarditis • Cardiogenic shock• MVP /M.stenosis
Acute Coronary Syndromes
*Myocardial Ischemia *Stable Angina *Unstable Angina
*Myocardial Infarction
*Pericarditis

ANGINA PECTORIS . Myocardial ischemia Expected companion of IHD …….

Determining whether pain is • Sub-sternal, • Provoked by exertion• Relieved by rest or nitroglycerin helps to clarify whether it is ……………………1. Typical anginal pain (has all 3characteristics) 2. Atypical anginal pain (has 2 characteristics3. Non-anginal pain (has 1 characteristic).

Angina ..Myocardial ischemia
A. Stable Angina(Exertional Angina)Stable pattern of onset ……………… relieved by Rest/GTN
B. Unstable Angina(PreinfarctionAngina)unpredictable, NOT relieved by GTN C. Variant Angina ( Prinzmetal- vasospastic) , without relation to effort, Occur at REST- between midnight & early morning ST Elevation ---
26
D. Intractable Angina – Chronic, incapacitating, unresponsive to treatment E. Pre-infarction Angina( Last more than 15 mts) F. Post infarction Angina ( after MI ,residual ischemia)
27
PERICARDITIS
28
Pericarditis
• Sharp Pre-cordial pain, deep and diffuse• Worse in supine position- relieved while
leaning fore ward• Aggravated during inspiration coughing • H/O viral infection , MI…….

T. Aortic Dissection of Aneurism Blood violates aortic intimal and adventitial layersFalse lumen is createdDissection may extend proximally, distally, or in both directions
31
T.A Aneurism dissection • Constant and boring chest pain• Deep diffuse – in supine position • Cough, dyspnea, stridor • Aphonia ( loss of voice) --
32
H Attack signs in Women
1. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
2. Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
3. breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.
4. As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or Chest dis comfort, other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and back or jaw pain.
33
Complications Cardiac arrest ----------------------
34
Possible Factors -6Hs & 5Tscardiac arrest
• Hypovolemea • Hypoxia • Hypothermia• Hypoglycemia• Hypo- Hyperkalemia• Hydrogen ion ( Acidosis)• Toxins• Trauma• Thrombosis ( coronary- pulmonary)• Tension pneumothorax

21 yrs old young male – was lifting weights –in the GIM . He had sudden onset of sharp chest pain, and SOB … Brought him to ER …
HR 122. RR 34, BP 70/? Sat 88% Decreased breath sounds on left side of the chest .. ???????

37
• Ms .A 61yrs,had severe Asthmatic attack ,as the O2 sat was 89% . Put on Mech Ventilator Mode : PEEP .
• 3rd day sedations stopped and started to wean her. Suddenly she screamed of severe chest pain and dyspnea
What will be the possible condition ?
38
