Q

What is cardiac looping?

A

the primary heart tube loops to establish left-right polarity beginning at week 4 of gestation

NOTE that a defect in left-right dynein can lead to dextrocardia as seen in Kartagener syndrome

Q

What are the first 2 steps in atrial development?

A

1) the septum primun grows toward the endocardial cushions, narrowing the foramen primum
2) the foramen secundum forms in the septa primum, as the foramen primum dissappears

Q

What are the next steps in atrial development?

A

3) the septum secundum develops downward and covers most of the foramen secundum, with the residual foramen being the foramen ovale
4) The remaining portion of the septum primum forms the valve of the foramen ovale

Q

What are the steps of ventricular development?

A

1) the muscular ventricular septum forms leaving a connection between the two developing ventricles called the interventricular foramen
2) Aorticopulmonary septum rotates and fuses with the muscular ventricular spetum to form the membranous interventricular septum, closing the interventricular foramen
3) growth of endocardial cushions seperate the atria from the ventricles

Q

Ventricular septal defects (VSDs) most commonly occur where?

A

the membranous septum

17
Q

What are the aortic and pulmonary valves derived from?

A

endocardial cushions of the outflow tract

18
Q

What are the mitral and tricuspid valves derived from?

A

from fused endocardial cushions of the AV canal

19
Q

What are the sites of fetal erythropoiesis?

A

Yolk sac (weeks 3-8)

Liver (week 6- birth)

Spleen (10-28 weeks)

Bone marrow (18 weeks to adult)

20
Q

What is the primary fetal hemoglobin?

A

HbF (a2y2)

21
Q

What is the primary adult hemoglobin?

A

HbA1 (a2b2)

22
Q

HbF has higher affinity for O2 binding than adult hemoglobin. Why?

A

it has less avid binding to 2,3-BPG, allowing HbF to extract O2 from amternal hemoglobin across the placenta

23
Q

Describe fetal circulation

A

maternal blood from the placenta is transported to the fetus via the umbilical vein (80% SaO2) where it is shunted from the liver into the IVC via the ductus venosus and into the heart where the majority passes through the foramen ovale and pumped into the aorta

AND

deoxygenated blood from the SVC passes through the right heart into the main pulmonary artery and then into the ductus arteriosus to the descending aorta

24
Q

How does fetal circulation change at birth?

A

at the first breath, pulmonary resistance decreases drastically and left atrial pressure increases causing the foramen ovale to close

the increase in O2 and decrease in prostaglandins from palcenta seperation cause the ductus arteriosus to close

25
Q

What is the remnant of the foreman ovale?

A

the fossa ovalis

26
Q

What things can help keep the ductus arteriosis open/patent?

A

prostaglandins E1 and E2 kEEp it open

27
Q

What can be used to close a PDA?

A

Indomethacin

28
Q

What is the adult remnant of the allantois/urachus?

A

mediaN umbilical ligament

29
Q

What is the adult remnant of the ductus arteriosus?

A

ligamentum arteriosum

30
Q

What is the adult remnant of the ductus venosus?

A

ligamentum venosum

31
Q

What is the adult remnant of the notochord?

A

the nucleus pulposus

32
Q

What is the adult remnant of the umbilical arteries?

A

mediaL umbilical ligaments

33
Q

What is the adult remnant of the umbilical vein?

A

ligamentum teres hepatis

34
Q

The ligamentum teres hepatis is contained in the ________

A

falciform ligament
