CHD trigger Flashcards
fixed, split S2 and pulmonic ejection murmur
ASD
MC ASD type
ostium secondum
Associated w fetal alcohol syndrome
ostium secondum
associated with down syndrome (25% of down syndrome kids have this)
ostium premium
CXR shows right sided heart dilation and prominent pulmonary vascularity
ASD
increased oxygen saturation in the RA, RV and pulmonary artery
ASD (seen with a heart catheterization?)
when should adults receive surgery for ASD
- RV enlargement
- paradoxical embolism
- R–>L shunt
what is the absolute MC congenital heart defect (be specific)!!
membranous VSD (upper septum)
holosystolic murmur located at lower left sternal border
VSD
holosystolic murmur plus a thrill and a diastolic rumble in the mitral area
VSD but moderate-large
LVH on EKG
VSD
treated with diuretics and higher calorie feeds
VSD
Surgical intervention indicated w pulm HTN, aortic insufficiency or LA/LV dilation
VSD
connects pulmonary artery and aorta
PDA
holosystolic “machine-like” murmur
PDA
associated with female, preemie and high altitude births
PDA
EKG shows LVH and LAE
PDA
coarctation of the aorta
can also use echo for PDA which is diagnostic!!!
tx with PGE inhibitors for neonates up to 14days. if symptomatic tx with digoxin and fureosemide
PDA
when is surgical ligation indicated for PDA
- left to right shunting
- left sided volume overload
- reversible pulmonary arterial HTN
CBC w schistocytes 2/2 microangiopathic hemolytic anemia
Pulmonic stenosis
When obstruction is severe, increased pressure can cause a R-to-L shunt (Eisenmenger Syndrome) to occur at the atrial level through a PFO
this is for pulmonary stenosis but i think this (eisenmenger syndrome) can happen with alot of things!!
why are PGEs given?
to keep the PDA open during any critical problems during which blood will not get to the lungs such as:
systolic ejection murmur increasing with inspiration and opening click louder w expiration
pulmonary stenosis
when is RV lift found on palpation of the precordium
pulmonic stenosis
dilation of the main and left pulm arteries on CXR
Pulm stenosis
