Pathophysiology of Rheumatic
fever/Rheumatic Heart Disease
Organism Factors
• Acute Rheumatic Fever is caused by infection
of the upper respiratory tract with any strain
of group A streptococci.
• A series of preceding streptococcal infections
is needed to "prime" the immune system prior
to the final infection that directly causes
disease.
Host Factors
• Findings of familial clustering of cases &
concordance in monozygotic twins—
particularly for chorea—confirm that
susceptibility to ARF is an inherited
characteristic.
• HLA class II alleles
• ↑levels of circulating MBL & polymorphisms
of TGF-β1 gene and immunoglobulin genes
Immune Response
Immune Response
• Epitopes present in the cell wall, cell
membrane, and the A, B, and C repeat regions
of the streptococcal M protein are
immunologically similar to molecules in
human myosin, tropomyosin, keratin, actin,
laminin, vimentin, and N-acetylglucosamine.
• Human molecules—particularly epitopes in
cardiac myosin—result in T cell sensitization.
Immune Response
• Laminin, another -helical coiled-coil protein
like myosin and M protein, which is found in
cardiac endothelium and is recognized by antimyosin, anti-M protein T cells.
• Antibodies to cardiac valve tissue cross-react
with the N-acetylglucosamine of group A
streptococcal carbohydrate, and there is
some evidence that these antibodies may be
responsible for valvular damage.
Physical examination findings in
MS, MR, AR?
Mitral Stenosis
Inspection
o malar flush with pinched and blue fascies
Palpation
Arterial pulse amplitude decreased
o RV tap along left sternal border signifies enlarged RV, diastolic thrill at
cardiac apex
Auscultation:
o S1 accentuated and delayed and palpable at left sternal border
o S2 closely split with accented P2
o OS readily audible in expiration
o Follows P2 closely, followed by a low pitched, rumbling diastolic murmur
heard best at apex and does not radiate
o Soft grade 1 or 2/6 murmur heard at apex or left sternal border
Hepatomegaly, ankle edema, ascites and pleural effusion if with
RV failure
Mitral Regurgitation
• Usually asymptomatic for chronic mild-moderate MR
• Palpation

–
Arterial pressure usually normal but may show a sharp upstroke
Systolic thrill at cardiac apex
Palpable rapid filling wave (S3)
Apex beat displaced laterally
In acute severe MR

–
Grade 3/6 holosystolic high-pitched decrescendo, my obliterate S2
Radiates from apex to base or to left axilla
Absent or soft S1
Premature A2 resulting in wide but physiologic splitting of S2
S3 often present
S3-S4 on those with severe MR
Aortic Regurgitation
• Inspection
– Jarring of the entire body and bobbing motion of the head
with each systole
– Abrupt distention (water hammer pulse) and collapse of
large arteries during late sytole and diastole (Corrigan’s
pulse)
– Alternate flushing and paling of the skin at the root of the
nail (Quincke’s pulse)
– Booming sound on femoral artery ( Traube’s sign)
Aortic Regurgitation
• Palpation
– Elevation of systolic pressure (300 mmHg)
– Depression of diastolic pressure
– LV impulse is heaving and displaced laterally and inferiorly
– Palpable diastolic thrill along the left sternal border, systolic
thrill in suprasternal notch transmitted in the carotid arteries
• Auscultation
– Murmur is high pitched, blowing, decrescendo diastolic murmur heard
best in 3rd ICS along the left sternal border
– Low pitched rumbling murmur at the apex (Austin Flint)
– Soft S1, M1 and A2 often intensified
– S3 and systolic ejection sound are audible
– Occasionally S4 can also be heard
– Auscultatory features are intensified by strenous handgrip, which
increases sytemic resistance

Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine, 17th ed.
REVISED JONES CRITERIA
2002-2003 WHO Criteria for the Diagnosis of RF and RHD
“Probable Rheumatic Fever”
– with polyarthritis (or with only polyarthralgia or
monoarthritis) and with several (3 or more) other minor
manifestations, plus evidence of recent group A
streptococcal infection.
– may later turn out to be rheumatic fever
– advise regular secondary prophylaxis, follow up closely and
do regular heart examination (esp. in vulnerable age groups in
high incidence settings)
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine, 17th ed.
The Duke Criteria
The Duke Criteria
• The diagnosis of infective endocarditis is
certain only when vegetations obtained are
examined histologically and microbiologically.
• Duke criteria is based on clinical, laboratory
and echocardiographic findings.
• 2 major criteria, 1 major + 2 minor criteria, or
5 minor criteria allows a definitive diagnosis.
The Duke Criteria
• The diagnosis of infective endocarditis is
rejected if:
– Alternative diagnosis is established
– Symptoms resolve and do not recur within 4 days
or less of antibiotic therapy
– Surgery or autopsy after 4 days or less of
antimicrobial therapy yields no histologic evidence
of endocarditis
The Duke Criteria
• Illnesses not classified as definite endocarditis
or rejected are considered possible cases
when either 1 major + 1 minor citeria or 3
minor criteria are identified.
• To fulfill a major criterion, the isolation of an
organism that causes both endocarditis and
bacteremia in the absence of endocarditis
must take place repeatedly and in the absence
of primary focus of infection.
The Duke Criteria
• Organisms that rarely cause endocarditis but
commonly contaminate blood cultures must
be isolated repeatedly if their isolation is to
serve as a major criterion.
The Duke Criteria
• Major Criteria
– Positive Blood Culture
• Typical microorganisms from two separate blood
cultures*
• Persistently positive blood culture, defined as recovery
of a microorganism consistent w/ infective endocarditis
from:
– Blood cultures drawn >12 hrs apart
– All of three, majority of four or more separate blood cultures,
with first and last drawn at least 1 hr apart
– Single positive blood culture from Coxiella burnetti or phase I
IgG titer > 1:800
The Duke Criteria
– Evidence of Endocardial Involvement
• Positive Echocardiogram
– Oscillating intracardiac mass on valve or supporting structures
or in the path of regurgitant jets or in implanted material, in
the absence of an alternative anatomic explanation
– Abscess
– New partial dehiscence of prosthetic valve
• New valvular regurgitation*
The Duke Criteria
• Minor Criteria
– Predisposition*
– Fever >/= 38°C*
– Vascular phenomena*
– Immunologic phenomena*
– Microbiologic Evidence*

Pleuritic chest pain
Nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea
Fatigue, headache, myalgias, and arthralgias

rub may be heard on auscultation
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
• Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome that occurs in
patients who, because of an inherited or acquired
abnormality of cardiac structure and/or function,
develop a constellation of clinical symptoms
(dyspnea and fatigue) and signs (edema and rales)
that lead to frequent hospitalizations, a poor quality
of life, and a shortened life expectancy
ETIOLOGY
• any condition that leads to an alteration in LV
structure or function can predispose a patient
to developing HF.

CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS
Type of Heart Failure
Chronic heart failure
(A long-term condition with signs and
symptoms that persist.)
Signs and symptoms
• Fatigue and weakness
• Rapid or irregular heartbeat
• Shortness of breath (dyspnea) when
you exert yourself or when you lie
down
• Reduced ability to exercise
• Persistent cough or wheezing with
white or pink blood-tinged phlegm
• Swelling (edema) in your legs, ankles
and feet
• Swelling of your abdomen (ascites)
• Sudden weight gain from fluid
retention
• Lack of appetite and nausea
• Difficulty concentrating or decreased
alertness
CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS
Type of Heart Failure
Acute heart failure
(An emergency situation that occurs when
something suddenly affects your heart's
ability to function.)
Signs and symptoms
• Signs and symptoms similar to those
of chronic heart failure but more
severe, and start or worsen suddenly
• Sudden fluid buildup
• Rapid or irregular heartbeat with
palpitations that may cause the heart to
stop beating
• Sudden, severe shortness of breath
and coughing up pink, foamy mucus
• Chest pain if caused by a heart attack
Enumerate the precipitating
factors of heart failure.
HEART FAILURE
• Pathophysiologic state
wherein the heart loses
its ability to pump
sufficient amount of
blood due to a structural
or functional cardiac
abnormality
HEART FAILURE
• A majority of the patients’
symptoms of heart failure are due
to impairment of left ventricular
function.
•
Hence, a condition that leads to an
alteration in LV structure or
function can predispose a patient
to developing heart failure.
HEART FAILURE
LV dysfunction begins with some
injury to the myocardium, and is
a progressive process, even in
the absence of a new
identifiable insult to the
myocardium.
Cardiac remodelling occurs in
association w/ homeostatic
attempts to decrease wall stress
through increases in wall
thickness.
This would then result in a
change in the geometry of the
LV, hence, the chamber dilates,
hypertrophies and becomes
more spherical
HEART FAILURE
HEART FAILURE
PRECIPITATING CAUSES OF HEART FAILURE:
Reduction in therapy
Hypertension
High salt intake
Cardiac infection and
inflammation
Arrhythmias
High output states
Systemic infection
Physical, environmental
and emotional stress
Pulmonary embolism
Development of an unrelated
illness
Development of a second
form of cardiac disease
Differentiate low and high output failure,
R/L sided heart failure, systolic and
diastolic dysfunction
Systolic Versus Diastolic Failure
Forms of Heart Failure
Sytolic Failure
• Inability of the ventricle
to contract normally
and expel sufficient
blood
• Inadequate cardiac
output with weakness,
fatigue, reduced
exercise tolerance
(hypoperfusion)
Diastolic Failure
• Inability to relax or fill
normally (elevation of
filling pressures)
• Due to increased
resistance to ventricular
diastolic capacity,
impaired ventricular
relaxation, and
myocardial fibrosis and
infiltration
Management
Congestive Heart Failure
• Patients With Reduced Left Ventricular
Ejection Fraction
– If with fluid retention:
• Use diuretics (thiazides)
– Medications that should be AVOIDED:
• Anti-arrhythmics
• Calcium channel blockers
• NSAIDs
Circulation; Journal of the AHA http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/full/119/14/1977
Congestive Heart Failure
• Patients With Reduced Left Ventricular
Ejection Fraction
– Recommendations concerning aldosterone
antagonists:

severe HF symptoms and recent decompensation or
with LV dysfunction early after MI
Circulation; Journal of the AHA http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/full/119/14/1977
Congestive Heart Failure
• Patients With Refractory End-Stage Heart
Failure (Stage D)
– Intravenous Peripheral Vasodilators and Positive
Inotropic Agents:
• hospitalized frequently for clinical deterioration, and
during such admissions, they commonly receive
infusions of both positive inotropic agents
(dobutamine, dopamine, or milrinone) and vasodilator
drugs (nitroglycerin, nitroprusside, or nesiritide)
Circulation; Journal of the AHA http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/full/119/14/1977
