Cardiac Flashcards
cardiac abnormalities associated with tetralogy of fallot
Pulmonary stenosis (ULSB), VSD at LLSB, overriding aorta, right ventricular hypertrophy
most common cause of congestive heart failure in the first year of life is?
VSD
s/s of Congestive EARLY heart failure in a 2-month old are?
Tachycardia and tachypnea
hepatomegaly, edema is initially noted in the eyes (can be subtle) about 10% wt increase.
what is the recommended sub acute bacterial endocarditis prophylaxis?
AHA recommends prophylaxis for children within 6 months of a surgical repair or catheterization procedure that left a closure device
OR (EASIER) children with repaired congenital heart disease with a residual effect.
URSB heard best when sitting, decreases with a change in head position, generally when turning ipsilaterally?
Venus Hum
```
ipsilateral= same side
(contralateral= opp. side)
~~~
heard best at ULSB, axilla, and back
Peripheral Pulmonary stenosis
Recommendations for children (2-8) with increased BMI and family risk factors
perform 2 lipid profiles and avg results
limit saturate fats <7%
t/f standard of care for high cholesterol for peds is statins
false, NO stating under 10 yrs
Murmur heard at URSB where is the problem likely coming from?
Aortic valve or Vessel
Murmur heard at ULSB where is the problem likely coming from?
pulmonic valve
pathologic murmur heard at LLSB where is the problem likely coming from? what else might you consider?
VSD or Tricuspid valve (even though tricuspid is on the RIGHT side of the heart, murmur is heard at Lower Left Sternal border)
grade 2 to 3/4 systolic ejection murmur heard at the ULSB concern for what kind of condition?
ASD
can be confused for pulmonary valve/artery problem but the question asked for systolic ejection NOT systolic ejection CLICK which is heard in stenosis
holosystolic murmur, sometimes associated with a thrill heard at the LLSB concern for what condition?
VSD
holosystolic murmur head at ULSB with a machinery sound concern for what condition
PDA
loud systolic ejection click at mid/ULSB concern for what condition?
TOF
hypercapnic hypercyanotic episodes are called? r/t what disorder?
TET spells
Prolonged PR interval on ECG with evidence of group A beta hemolytic strep is suspicious for?
Rheumatic fever
list some of the major Jones criteria for diagnosing rheumatic fever?(5) What are some of the minor? (4)
what is the diagnostic criteria?
major: subcataneous nodules, carditis, chorea, polyarthritis, erythema marginatum (erythema multiforme like rash, or lyme disease like rash)
minor: fever>102.2, elev CRP/sed rate, arthralgia, prolonger PR interval ECG with evidence of strep infection.
2 minor 1 major, or 2 minor 1 major
Venous hum decreases or disappears what two ways?
when turning head ipsilateral (right side), and when supine
what valve is most affected with rheumatic fever? which side is it?
Mitral- left side
