Cardiology Flashcards

1
Q

PDA clinically relevant

A

hemodynamic: LA/LV dilation, MR, hypotension, cardiomegaly
Clinically: feeding intolerance (run off from abdominal aorta ->decrease perfusion to gut), pulmonary edema/hemorrhage, metabolic acidosis, renal injury, perfusion

Q

Ebstein Anomaly

A

Tricuspid valve leaflets are displaced into the RV
“Atrialized” RV wall (those above the leaflets)

Q

ToF boot shape heart

A

appearance due to RVH causing apex to rotate upwards

18
Q

“snowman silhouette”

A

TAPVR

19
Q

TAPVR

A

increase heart size
prominent main pulmonary artery
pulmonary congestion

20
Q

“egg on a string”

A

d-TGA
narrow mediastinum d/t anterior/posterior aorta and main PA relationship

21
Q

d-TGA vs L-TGA

A
22
Q

Side effects of prostaglandin

A

Apnea, fever, cutaneous flushing, bradycardia
less common: hypotension, seizures, tachycardia, edema, infection, DIC
Chronic: cortical bone proliferation

23
Q

Surgical repair for hypoplastic left heart

A
24
Q

Surgical repair for d-TGA

A

Arterial Switch:
-RV connects to PA and LV connects to aorta
-Main PA moved Ao valve

25
Q

lasix inhibits prostaglandin–> prevents PDA closure

A
26
Q

30% of right sides arch have vascular ring due to left ductus arteriosus

A
