what are the 6 stages of behavior change | precontemplation, contemplation, determination, action, maintenance, relapse |
3 MC causes of dyspepsia | GERD, PUD, fxnl dyspepsia (diagnose after upper endoscopy, etc are all nml) |
alarm symptoms in dyspepsia | age>55 w new onset of sympt, FMH of upper GI cancer, wgt loss, bleeding, worsening dysphagia, odynophagia, anemia, persistent vomitting |
remember to ask abt NSAID use in dyspepsia | |
mgmt GERD | PPI, if taking NSAID need to stop (I guess don't need PPI) |
if dyspepsia but not GERD or NSAID, how manage? | can do empiric PPI or H2 antagonist; **(best) H Pylori test/treat; endoscopy |
lifestyle changes for GERD& dyspepsia | just avoid trigger foods if only dyspepsia, if GERD: wgt loss, elevating head of bed, avoiding spicy and large meals and meals before bed |
triple tx for H Pylori | PPI, clarithromycin, amox (flagyl if allergic to PCN) |
on female w UTI sympt be sure to ask abt | gyne symptoms (discharge, pelvic pain) and even menstrual history; sympt suggestive of pyelo (F/C, N/V, back pain) |
serious UTI type diseases want to consider/ r/o | renal cell or bladder cancer, pyelo, PID, nephrolithiasis |
ppl at risk for complicated UTI (ie pyelo) | fxnl or anatomic abnlty of urinary tract incl polycystic kidney dz, nephrolithiasis, neurogenic bladder, preg, DM or immunosupp, recent urinary tract procedure or catheter |
lifestyle changes for UTI | liquids, urinate s/p sex, drink cranberry juice, wipe front to back s/p BM |
MC bugs for UTI in female | E Coli, then Staph Sapro |
tx for uncomplicated UTI in women | 3d Bactrim or Cipro sufficient, if recurrent may used 5-10d and ensure infxn clears |
what cxns or serious URI don't want to miss | meningitis, brain abscess, orbital cellulitis |
imaging/w/u for URI/sinusitis | none, could order sinus XR or CT, but not usu helpful, sinus cx could be considered if resistant to tx |
tx URI/sinusitis | if just viral use nasal saline spray, can give nasal decongestant (pseudoephed, oxymetazoline 3-5d), if sinusitis amox |
if allergic component URI how tx | loratadine (claritin), fexofenadine (allegra) |
mild persistent asthma symptoms and use of inhaler | daytime symptoms (using b2) >2x/wk, nighttime 3-4/mo, FEV1 >80% and FEV1/FVC nml (same as intermittent) |
levels of asthma | intermittent, mild persistent, moderate persistent, severe persistent |
moderate persistent asthma symptoms and use of inhaler | daytime symptoms (using b2) everyday, nighttime sympt >1x/wk, FEV1 60-80% and FEV1/FVC reduced by 5% |
severe persistent asthma symptoms and use of inhaler | daytime symptoms (using b2) throughout the day, nighttime sympt every night, FEV1 <60% and FEV1/FVC reduced by >5% |
well controlled asthma | sympt <2x/wk and nighttime <2x/mo, no interference nml activity, FEV1 >80% of best (can f/u 6mos) |
not well controlled asthma | sympt >2x/wk and nighttime >2x/mo, some limitation nml activity, FEV1 60-80% of best (add tx and f/u 2-6wks) |
poor controlled asthma | sympt throughout the day, nighttime sympt almost every night, using b2 mltpl times/day, FEV<60%, for tx consider short term oral steroids and f/u 2wks |
SE of b2 | tachycardia, tremor, hypoK, paradoxical bronchospasm |

SE theophylline | N/V, HA, insomnia, irritability. Serious SE: arrhythmias, sz |
SE leukotriene modifiers | various incl HA, flu like/URI, GI sympt. Serious SE incl angioedema, anaphylaxis |
mech of action theophylline | prevents breakdown of cAMP and cGMP for sm mscl relax and bronchodilation, also inhibits inflamm mediators |
key adv/disadv theophylline | cost is advantage; disadv incl SE and need to monitor levels |
comorbidities/triggers asthma | allergens, GERD, allergic rhinitis, smoke exposure, obesity and OSA |
components to developing therapeutic relationship | develop atmosphere of trust, connect on non-medical topic, learn abt family contextual things related to dz, offer to partner w pt, show empathy, etc |
tx for mild persistent? Moderate? Severe? | short acting b2 + low dose steroid. For moderate add long acting b2. for severe add medium dose steroid--if that doesn't control add oral steroid |
cut offs for lipids | tChol <200, >240 is high. TG <150, >200 high. HDL 40-60 (where 60 or higher is good!). LDL >160 high |
LDL when start tx and goals: pt with BOTH DM and CAD | start lifestyle and Rx at 70, goal <70 |
LDL when start tx and goals: pt with DM OR CAD OR 10yr risk >20% | start lifestyle at 100 and Rx at 100 or 130, goal <100 |
LDL when start tx and goals: pt with 2 RF, 10yr risk 10-20% | start lifestyle at 130 and Rx at 100 or 130, goal <130 |
LDL when start tx and goals: pt with 2 RF, 10yr risk <10% | start lifestyle at 130 and Rx at 160, goal <130 |
LDL when start tx and goals: pt with <2 RF | start lifestyle at 160 and Rx at 160 or 190, goal <160 |
RF used to calculate LDL | smoking, HTN, FMH of premature CAD |
LDL cutoff and goal for HTN, smoker w/o FMH premature CAD | would need to calculate 10yr risk, but if >20%: start lifestyle at 130 and Rx at 100 or 130, goal <130 |
