Q

what is moderate subaortic stenosis according to the doppler gradient?

17
Q

what is ballon valvuloplasty like in treating subaortic stenosis?

A

inconsistent pressure reduction
balloon alone may not alter disease

18
Q

where in the interventricular septum is a ventricular septal defect usually?

A

often high in interventricular septum

19
Q

what is the most common defect in horses, ruminants, and maybe cats?

A

ventricular septal defect

20
Q

what dog breeds are predisposed to ventricular septal defect?

A

english bulldog
keeshond
maltese

21
Q

what can be found on auscultation/exam with ventricular septal defect?

A

harsh systolic murmur
loudest at right sternal border
maybe second murmur: pulmonic stenosis
arterial pulses often normal

22
Q

what is the surgical repair like with ventricular septal defect?

A

cardiopulmonary bypass required
patch over VSD
uncertain operative mortality

23
Q

what is an ostium secundum defect like?

A

location of septum secundum
middle (high) in atrial septum

24
Q

what dog breeds are predisposed to atrial septal defects?

A

samoyed
doberman
standard poodle
old english sheepdog

25
who can have atrial septal defect?
dogs cats ruminants
26
what can be heard on auscultation with an atrial septal defect?
fixed splitting second heart sound relative tricuspid stenosis relative pulmonic stenosis no murmur
