Congenital Heart Disease 🫀 Flashcards
A girl found to have radio-femoral delay
most likely cause:
A. Coarctation of aorta
B. PDA
C. ASD
D. VSD
Coarctation of aorta
- Radio-femoral delay
- High BP upper extremity , Low BP lower extremity
- rib notching CXR
A child with accidental discover of heart murmur, Severe AS on Echo , Asymptomatic
Best action:
A. Annual follow up
B. Aortic valve replacement
C. ACE-i
D. Balloon dilation
Balloon dilation
AS:
-Mild: systolic gradient <25 = follow up
-Moderate: 25-50 = ?
-Severe: >50 mmHg = balloon dilation » AV replacement
Most common congenital heart anomaly in Turner syndrome
A. Coarctation of Ao
B. Bicuspid AV
C. TOF
D. Mitral valve prolapse
Bicuspid aortic valve
A mother delivered and her baby found to have absent red reflex and PDA
Most likely cause:
A. Gestational DM
B. Maternal Hypertension
C. Congenital Rubella
D. Lithium
Congenital Rubella syndrome
🔸 Cataract
🔸 Deafness
🔸 Blue berry muffin rash
🔸 PDA, pulmonary stenosis
🔸 Endocrinopathy like DM
5 years old with developmental delay, recurrent infection, recurrent tetany
Most common congenital anomaly:
A. TOF
B. TGA
C. ASD
D. VSD
TOF
DiGeorge syndrome chromosome 22q11
- TOF
- TA
A child with tall sature, pecus excvaum lens dislocation,
Most common congenital heart anomaly:
A. TOF
B. Mitral valve prolapse
C. TGA
D. Coarctation of aorta
Mitral valve prolapse
Marfan syndrome
6 yo child came for pre-school checkup found to have grade iii heart murmur along the sternal border, “no specific timing or location of the murmur provided”, no thrill, the murmur accentuated with supine position, Dx:
A. Still’s mirmur
B. VSD
C. ASD
D. Aortic stenosis
Still’s murmur
Innocent murmur
# short
# soft
# healthy child 3-6 yr
# no radiation
# change with posture
# no thrill (grade i/ii/iii)
A child with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
The following will be affected in this condition:
A. Systolic function
B. Diastolic function
C. Venous return
D. Mitral valve
Diastolic function
A young basketball player suddenly collapsed and found to have weak & jerky carotid pulse. Mist likely cause:
A. Dilated CMP
B. Hypertrophic CMP
C. Restrictive CMP
D. Mitral valve prolapse
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
🗒️ Etiologies :
- genetic (AD)
- glycogen storage disease
- infant of diabetic mother
Best option regarding treatment of HOCM:
A. ACE-i
B. Digixin
C. ß-blocker
D. Hydralazine
ß-blocker
Tx of HOCM:
ß-b , CCB
All the following are symptoms of heart failure in infants except:
A. Slow feeding
B. Ankle edema
C. Hepatomegaly
D. Lung crepitation
Ankle edema
In infants: sacral edema
In walking child: LL edema
Which of the following decrease mortality in heart failure ?
A. Diuretics
B. ACE-i
C. Digoxin
D. CCB
ACE-i
ß-blockers
MRAs
Empagloflozine
Which of the following is true regarding caloric requirement in children with congenital heart disease vs normal population?
A. Need more caloric
B. Need the same caloric
C. Need less caloric
D. Need more fluid
Need more caloric
- High caloric diet (150 kcal/kg)
- immunization
- RSV immunoglobulin prophylaxis
7 months old, poor feeding, O/E:
Hyperactive pericordium, loud S2, pansystolic murmur 3/6 @ LLSB
A. Small PDA
B. Large ASD
C. AR
D. MD
E. Large VSD
VSD
PDA: machinery continuous murmur
ASD: fixed splitting
AR: diastolic decreacendo murmur
MR: pansystolic @ apex (mitral area)
Coarctation: systolic @ LUSB
Asymptomatic child with 2 mm VSD
Most appropriate action:
A. Cathater
B. Surgery
C. Close follow up
D. Prophylaxis antibiotics before dental procedure
Close follow up
Which of the following indicates large VSD
A. Normal growth
B. Harsh murmur
C. Loud S2
D. Pansystolic murmur radiates to axilla
Loud S2
🔹Small VSD: ASx, harsh murmur
🔹Large VAD: soft pansystolic murmur, mid-diastolic over Mitral area, systolic murmur over Aortic area
🔺 Pulmonary blood pressure = PAH ➡️ Loud S2
VSD’s that most likely to close spontaneously:
▪️ <5 mm
▪️ Muscular > perimembranous
ASD’s that most likely to close spontaneously:
▪️<8mm
▪️Secundum > primum
