CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE Flashcards
ASD
VSD
PDA
all lead to increased pulmonary circulation volume and/or pressure leading to RVH and potentially failure
late cyanotic congenital heart disease (Eisenmenger syndrome)
these are what types of shunts
left to right shunt
early cyanotic congenital heart disease
paradoxical embolism
tetralogy of fallout
transposition of the great arteries
these are what types of shunts?
right to left shunt
coarctation of the aorta is what type of congenital heart disease?
coarctation of the aorta
this type of right to left shunt presents with cyanosis, embolism, brain abscess
early cyanotic congenital heart disease
name this right to left shunt
passage of clot from veins to artery into systemic circulation
paradoxical embolism
name this right to left shunt
VSD
overriding aorta
right ventricular outflow tract obstruction
right ventricular hypertrophy
tetralogy of fallout
name this right to left shunt
aorta rises from right ventricle
pulmonary artery emanates from left ventricle
incompatible post natal life unless shunt established:
VSD
patent foramen ovale
PDA
transposition of the great arteries (TGA)
this congenital obstructive lesion is due to the narrowing of the aorta
M>F
severity depends on amount of narrowing and PDA
upper extremity hypertension and lower extremity hypotension and weak pulses
coarctation of the aorta
