23
Q

TGA mgmt

A

digoxin, furosemide

24
Q

TGA tx

A

prostaglandins, arterial switch surgery

25
Q

prostaglandins side effect

A

apnea - may need ventilated

26
Q

s/s of coarc

A

upper extremities - +4 pulses
lowers - hypoTN, +1 pulses, cool
may not be walking, dizziness, headache, epistaxis

27
Q

mgmt of coarc

A

furosemide, digoxin - monitor all 4 BPs, hold if too low

28
Q

tx of coarc

A

stent, aortic dilation

29
Q

s/s of re-coarc

A

headache, dizziness, chest pain, epistaxis

30
Q

tetralogy of fallot

A

VSD, overriding aorta, pulmonic stenosis, R ventricular hypertrophy

31
Q

s/s of tet

A

cyanosis, clubbing, polycythemia, hypoxic seizure risk

32
Q

tet spell

A

periods of hypoxia while feeding or pooping –> tachypneic, blue, cool extremities

33
Q

blue tet

A

severe pulmonic stenosis - need surgery soon

34
Q

pink tet

A

mild pulmonic stenosis - can wait a little longer for surgery

35
Q

mgmt of tet spells

A

bring knees to chest - pressure increases venous return to increase pulmonary flow

36
Q

mgmt of tet

A

furosemide, digoxin, restrict allotted time for PO feeds to conserve energy, can give O2 & morphine

37
Q

tx of tet

A

BT shunt until ready for open repair, then close VSD & widen pulm artery

38
Q

aortic stenosis

A

narrowed aortic valve causing L ventricular hypertrophy –> coronary arteries may not be perfused

39
Q

s/s of AS

A

L sided HF, dyspnea, activity intolerance, may faint or arrest w/ strenuous activity

40
Q

mgmt of AS

A

furosemide, digoxin, beta blockers

41
Q

AS tx

A

dilation, stent placement

42
Q

HLHS

A

no left ventricle - PDA & ASD needed to live

43
Q

s/s of HLHS

A

sats 70-85%, cyanosis

44
Q

what should you do if a HLHS infant has +4 pedal pulses, headache, satting 63%?

A

give O2, may need to vent

45
Q

what should you do if an HLHS infant has cool, pale feet, cap refill of 5 seconds, crackles, satting 91%?

A

give antihypertensives

46
Q

HLHS tx

A

prostaglandins, artificial ASD, BT shunt, will eventually need a transplant

47
Q

HLHS mgmt

A

balance pulm & circulatory flow

48
Q

ASD

A

opening between atria, L to R shunt –> increased pulmonary flow

49
Q

ASD s/s

A

L sided HF, crackles, tachypnea, diaphoresis

50
Q

ASD mgmt

A

lasix, digoxin, rest, increase calories

51
Q

ASD tx

A

cath lab/open closure

52
Q

VSD

A

opening between ventricles, L to R shunt, can eventually go R to L

53
Q

VSD s/s

A

L&R sided HF, crackles, fatigue, edema, lethargy

54
Q

VSD tx

A

cath lab/open closure

55
Q

VSD mgmt

A

lasix, digoxin, antihypertensives
