|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 사슬알균감염 후 생기는 심장판막병이다. 원인은 A군 -용혈사슬알에 의한 인두염후 일종의 면역반응으로 발병한다. 진단은 존의 기준에 의한다. (1) 주요기준은 관절염 심장염(심장비대, 심장잡음, 심장기능상실 등) 무도증: 무당이 춤을 추는 것 같은 행동의 발작증세. 연변홍반: 빨간 테두리를 가진 피부병변은 피하결절(subcutaneous nodule): 피부 밑에 생긴 결절, (2)참고 기준은 열, 관절통, EKG상 PR연장: 심전도 소견 급성기 반응물질(예: ESR, CRP)의 상승, 류마티스열 치료는 페니실린으로 치료하고 심장의 후유증 또한 페니실린으로 예방한다. |

| 영문 | heart failure | 한글 | 심장기능상실 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 몸의 조직이나 기관에서 대사에 필요한 만큼 충분한 양의 혈액을 공급할 수 없을 정도로 심장기능이 저하되어 있는 상태이다. 심장기능상실은 심근이 수축할 능력이 저하되었을 때나 심장에 심박출을 하기 위한 압력이 정상보다 증가되어 정상의 심장의 수축으로는 충분한 양의 혈액을 공급할 수 없는 경우, 그리고 심장근육, 심장에 걸리는 압력은 정상이나 심장박동의 이상에 의해서 정상적인 수축이 불가능할 경우에 생긴다. |

| 영문 | pacemaker(of heart) | 한글 | 심장박동기 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 심장의 전기적 자극이 병적인 상태로 발생하지 않거나, 혹은 심실로 잘 전해지지 않을 때 사용한다. 일시적 심장박동기와 영구적 심장박동기가 있으며, 각기 쓰이는 용도는 병에 따라 다르다. 요즘에 나오는 심장 박동기는 건전지의 수명도 반영구적이며, 밖에서 조정할 수 있고, 운동이나 스트레스 상황에 대한 심장의 빠른 운동에도 잘 적응할 수 있도록 만들어져 있다. |

| right interlobar pulmonary artery | <radiology> Upper limit of normal: 15 mm (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| right pulmonary artery | <anatomy, artery> The longer of the two terminal branches of the pulmonary trunk, it passes transversely across the mediastinum passing inferior to the aortic arch to enter the hilum of the right lung. Branches are distributed with the bronchi; frequent variations occurs. Typical branches to the superior lobe (rami lobi superioris ) are apical (ramus apicalis ), anterior ascending (rami anterior ascendens ), anterior descending (ramus anterior descendens ), posterior ascending (ramus posterior ascendens ), and posterior descending (ramus posterior descendens ); to the middle lobe (rami lobi medii ) are medial (ramus medialis ) and lateral (ramus lateralis ); and to the inferior lobe (rami lobi inferioris ) are superior (apical) branch of inferior lobe (ramus superior (apicalis) lobi inferioris ), and the anterior, lateral (lateralis), medial (medialis) and posterior basal branches (rami basalis). Synonym: arteria pulmonalis dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein returning oxygenated blood from the superior and middle lobes of the right lung to the left atrium. Synonym: vena pulmonalis superior dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chronic obstructive pulmonary disease | <disease> A progressive disease process that most commonly results from smoking. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterised by difficulty breathing, wheezing and a chronic cough. Treatment includes absolute avoidance from smoking, bronchodilators and oxygen for those with advanced disease. Complications include bronchitis, pneumonia and lung cancer. See: emphysema. (27 Sep 1997) |
| coin lesion, pulmonary | Solitary, round, circumscribed shadows found in the lungs in X-ray examinations. Common causes are tuberculosis, neoplasms, cysts, or vascular anomalies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| congenital absence of pulmonary valve | <radiology> BIG central pulmonary arteries, big RV (12 Dec 1998) |
| congenital pulmonary arteriovenous fistula | Abnormal congenital communication between pulmonary arteries and veins usually found in the lung parenchyma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexogenic pulmonary arteriopathy | <syndrome> Sclerosis of the pulmonary arteries in chronic cor pulmonale; associated with severe cyanosis, it is a condition resembling polycythemia vera but resulting from primary pulmonary arteriosclerosis or primary pulmonary hypertension and characterised by plexiform lesions of arterioles. Synonym: Ayerza's disease, cardiopathia nigra, plexogenic pulmonary arteriopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postcapillary pulmonary hypertension | <radiology> Heart: LV failure, mitral stenosis, LA myxoma / thrombus, cor triatriatum, Pulmonary veins: congenital stenosis of pulmonary vein origin, mediastinal granulomata and neoplasms, idiopathic pulmonary veno-occlusive disease, anomalous pulmonary venous return (12 Dec 1998) |
| posterior branch of right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> Drains posterior portion of superior lobe of right lung. Synonym: ramus posterior venae pulmonalis dextrae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precapillary pulmonary hypertension | <radiology> Vascular: increased flow (left to right shunts), decreased flow (tetralogy of Fallot), primary pulmonary hypertension, thromboembolic disease, pulmonary arteritides, Pleuropulmonary: emphysema, diffuse lung disease, fibrothorax, chest deformity, hypoventilation, high-altitude pulmonary hypertension (12 Dec 1998) |
| hantavirus pulmonary syndrome | <syndrome> Acute respiratory illness in humans caused by the muerto canyon virus whose primary rodent reservoir is the deer mouse peromyscus maniculatus. First identified in the southwestern united states, this syndrome is characterised most commonly by fever, myalgias, headache, cough, and rapid respiratory failure. (12 Dec 1998) |
| primary pulmonary hypertension | A condition where there is increased blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries with otherwise normal heart and lungs. The cause is unknown, but there is diffuse narrowing of the pulmonary arteries resulting in increased arteriolar pressures. Secondary heart failure ensues without correction of this problem. There is an increased incidence of this disease in females between the ages of 20 and 40 years. Treatment may include a heart and lung transplant in select cases. (27 Sep 1997) |
| primary pulmonary lobule | The part of the airway consisting of a respiratory bronchiole and all of its branches. Synonym: primary pulmonary lobule, respiratory lobule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sarcoidosis, pulmonary | Sarcoidosis affecting predominantly the lungs, the site most frequently involved and most commonly causing morbidity and mortality in sarcoidosis. Pulmonary sarcoidosis is characterised by sharply circumscribed granulomas in the alveolar, bronchial, and vascular walls, composed of tightly packed cells derived from the mononuclear phagocyte system. The clinical symptoms when present are dyspnea upon exertion, nonproductive cough, and wheezing. (cecil textbook of medicine, 19th ed, p431) (12 Dec 1998) |
