Congenital Heart Summary Info Flashcards
Six important developmental steps for heart
- Separation of R and L Heart
- Separation of Atria from Ventricles
- Division of Pulmonary and Arterial Outflow
- Development of Jxn btw valves and ventricular walls
- Closing of ductus arteriosus
- Development of aortic arch
Defect associated with the separation of R and L heart stage
VSD, ASD
Defect associated with the separation of atria and ventricles
Tricuspid, Mitral
Defect associated with the Division of Pulmonary and Arterial outflow
Pulmonic, Aortic, Truncus Arteriosus, Transposition of Great Arteries
Defect associated with the development of Jxn btw valvular and ventricular walls
Tetralogy of Fallot
Endocardial Cushions
Defect associated with the Closing of ductus
PDA
How to close a ductus
Aspirin
How to keep a ductus open
PGE
Where is the cyanosis of PDA?
Toes, but not fingers
Defect associated with the development of the aortic arch
Coarction of the Aorta
Flow from ______ to _______ results in cyanosis
Right to Left
Causes of early cyanosis
- Tricuspid Atresia
- Tetralogy of Fallot
- Truncus arteriosus
- Transposition
Two ways that blood can get to the lungs
Pulmonic Valve
PDA
Four ways to the left side of the heart
Thru left atrium
through an ASD
thru VSD
through PDA
Repair must occur before…
Pulmonary Hypertension
