Acyanotic heart diseases Flashcards
- Narrowing at the entrance of PA
- IF RV failure develop – RA pressure will increase resulting to re-opening of foramen ovale
- Shunting of unoxygenated blood into
Pulmonary Stenosis
Open surgical Management of PDA
ligation of PDA thru left
thoracotomy
Medical management of VSD with cardiac failure:
digoxin and diuretics
type of ASD that comprises
about 5% cases of ASD. The
defect lies low in the interatrial
septum adjacent to
atrioventricular valves. There
may be cleft in the aortic leaflet
of the mitral valve producing
mitral insufficiency.
ostium primum
nonsurgical Management of PDA
coil occlusion
Management of PDA
- Indomethacin IV (prostaglandin
inhibitor) - Digoxin
- Diuretics
- adequate nutrition
Surgical management:
* Open: ligation of PDA thru left
thoracotomy
* Closed: VATS (visual assisted
thoracoscopic surgery)
- Nonsx: COIL OCCLUSION
Closed surgical Management of PDA
VATS (visual assisted
thoracoscopic surgery)
Medical management of AS: used to treat CHF
rapidly acting inotropic
agents and diuretics
Management of ASD: prophylactic
antibiotics to prevent bacterial
endocarditis before dental
procedures and other invasive
procedures
infection control
Type of AS: stricture caused by a fibrous
ring below the normal valve
Sub valvular stenosis
Management of ASD: helps strengthen the
heart muscle, enabling
digoxin
Management of AS:
o Replacing the child’s diseased aortic valve with his/her own pulmonary valve (pulmonary autograft) and the pulmonary valve replaced with homograft
Ross procedure
Management of AS:
Additional sx for recurrent stenosis: valve replacement (artificial) may be required at the second procedure
Aortic homograft with a valve
Other term for AVC
endocardial
cushion defects
Management of PDA:
-the standard procedure
-The technique of video-assisted thoracoscopic clip ligation has become the standard of care for surgical management of a ductus with adequate length
ligation of PDA thru left
thoracotomy
Management of PS:
Surgical for Infants
TRANSVENTRICULAR
VALVOTOMY/BLOCK
Management of PS: closed surgical
TRANSVENTRICULAR
VALVOTOMY/BLOCK
Partial atrioventricular canal defects is also called as
atrioventricular
septal defect, or AVSD.
Type of AS: occurs
infrequently
Supra valvular stenosis
Medical management of VSD: for complete repair of small defects
purse-string approach
type of ASD that accounts
for about 5% cases of ASD. The
defect is located high in the
interatrial septum near the
entry of the superior vena cava.
Sinus venosus
Type of AVC: severe defect in which there is a large hole in the septum that separates the left and right sides of the heart. The hole is in the center of the heart, where the upper chambers and the lower chambers meet.
Complete atrioventricular canal (CAVC)
Management of PS:
o during cardiac catheterization to dilate the narrowed valve
/STENT PLACEMENT
o A doctor inserts a long, thin tube (catheter) with a balloon on the tip into an artery in the arm or groin. X-rays are used
to help guide the catheter to the narrowed valve in the heart. The doctor the inflates the balloon, which widens the opening of the valve and
separates the valve flaps. The balloon is when deflated, and the catheter and balloon are removed.
Balloon Valvuloplasty
Management of COA
- Surgical correction is advisable in all but the mildest cases
- Nonsx:
o BALLOON ANGIOPLASTY - Sx:
o Resection/removal of
narrowed ends and
anastomosis of both ends
o Enlargement of the
constricted section using a
graft of prosthetic
material/portion of left
subclavian artery
Management of PDA: help close a PDA
works by stimulating the muscles
inside the PDA to constrict,
thereby closing the connection
Indomethacin IV (prostaglandin
inhibitor)
Management of PDA:
use of thoracoscope and instruments, 3 small insicion on the L side of chest to place a clip on the ductus)
VATS (visual assisted
thoracoscopic surgery)
Palliative Medical management of VSD
pulmonary artery
banding
