Understand urinary incontinence and possible causes. • Stress incontinence: Loss of urine associated with activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure • Urge incontinence: Involuntary loss of urine usually preceded by a strong, unexpected urge to void • Mixed incontinence: Urge and stress incontinence together • Overflow incontinence: An involuntary loss of urine associated with incomplete emptying 39.

Know the reasons for using the risk stratification according to the Farmingham risk score to justify a ETT in an asymptomatic patient. Your patient has a maximum age-predicted heart rate of 180. During the exercise, he reaches a heart rate of 140 and then states he can no longer exercise. You see no evidence of ischemia on the ECG. This would be diagnostic for what condition? Ischemic changes on ECG during ETT is highly predictive of CAD. What is another important strong predictor of CAD that you might see during an ETT? You are counseling a patient diagnosed with stress-induced ischemia. You base your discussion on your knowledge that stress-induced ischemia is thought to be caused by what phenomena? [Show More]
