Case 8 Cardiology

Heart Failure

Work it one clue at a time. The diagnosis stays hidden until you reveal it.

Clue 1

A man presents to you with the clinical syndrome of heart failure (weight gain, orthopnea, elevated JVP, etc.). BP is 144/48 mm Hg.

This should generate a hypothesis. Yoo you look for other specific physical findings. What do you notice in this video?

Clue 2

Quincke’s pulse is consistent with your hypothesis, so you look for more evidence in his neck. And you have found it.
