Cardiology - Congenital & Valve Flashcards
What is the sound S1?
combined sound of mitral and tricuspid valve closing
M1 = mitral valve T1 = tricuspid valve
What is the sound S2?
combined sound of aortic and pulmonic valves closing
A2 = aortic P2 = pulmonic
What is the sound S3?
rapid return of blood
think systolic CHF
What is the sound S4?
stiff ventricle
think diastolic CHF or ischemia
What should you think of when you hear “rubs”?
pericarditis
What are gallops?
S1+S2 plus S3 or S4 or both
What should you think of with S1+S2 plus S3?
systolic CHF
What should you think of with S1+S2 plus S4
diastolic CHF or ischemia (MI)
How does inspiration affect the heart sounds?
inspiration causes pulmonic and tricuspid murmus to get louder (increases venous return)
How does exhalation affect the heart sounds?
exhalation causes Aortic and Mitral murmurs to get louder
What are the two classifications of congenital heart anomalies?
cyanotic
noncyanotic
What type of shunts are cyanotic?
right to left
What are 4 examples of cyanotic heart?
- tetralogy of Fallot
- pulmonary atresia
- hypoplastic left heart syndrome
- transposition of the great vessels
Classify tetralogy of Fallot?
- VSD
- pulmonary valve stenosis (RV outflow is obstructed)
- overriding aorta
- RV hypertrophy
What are 5 examples of non cyanotic congenital heart?
- ASD
- VSD
- AV septal defect
- PDA
- Coarctation of the aorta
What congenital heart is common in down syndrome?
AV septal defect
noncyanotic
- left parasternal lift
- pulmonic ejection murmur
- fixed splitting of S2
ASD
noncyanotic
Describe a chest xray for ASD?
dilated pulmonary arteries and increased pulmonary vascularity
If ASD is not repaired what can happen?
can lead to pulmonary HTN
Blood pressure is high, but equal in both arms. Lower BP in legs
- claudication with activity
- rib notching
coarctation of the aorta (non cyanotic)
What congenital heart is common with Turner syndrome?
coarctation of the aorta (non cyanotic)
continuous machinery murmur
PDA
noncyanotic
What congenital heart is common with congenital rubella? FTT?
PDA
noncyanotic
Treatment for PDA?
- indomethacin (inhibit prostaglandins)
- surgery
What is the most common type of ASD?
ostium secundum (there are 4 types)
What happens in PDA?
PDA does not close - there is a channel bypassing the lungs, which allows placental gas exchange during fetal state
Most common congenial defect?
VSD (noncyanotic)
down syndrome
pansystolic (holosystolic) murmur
-hear mid sternal border
VSD
Which way does blood shunt with Eisenmenger?
right to left (cyanotic)
Which congenital heart is “boot-shaped heart”
-squatting child
tetralogy of Fallot (cyanotic = right to left)
What are 3 disease associated with tetralogy of Fallot?
Down syndrome
Digeorge syndrome
congenital rubella
