cradiopulm Flashcards
when does the cario system being to develope
19 of gestation
HB 8-10 weeks of gestation
heart transition to birth
closure of the foramen ovale, ductus venosus, ductus arteriosis
when does the pulm syst begin to develope
21 - 28 days gest
full maturation 18-20 yo
what part of the pulm system does not fully develop until we are full term
avelolar
lung transition to birth
fluid replaced by air
alvelio continue to grow in numbe and size - until 4 yo
lung continue to devlope until what age
18-20
first trimester what is developed
heart
2nd trimester what is developed
lungs
3rd trimester what is developed
brain
what is a congential heart defect
existing at brith
when the blood vessels near the heart or heart do not develop correctly
Congential heart defect two categories
cyanotic (blue babies)
and
a-cyanotic
cyanotic defect characteristics - direction of blood flow
right to left
cyanotic defect characteristics - condition of blood
de-oxy
cyanotic defect characteristics - cyanosis
present
acyanotic defect characteristics -direction of blood flow
left to right
acyanotic defect characteristics - condition of blood
oxy
acyanotic defect characteristics - cyanosis
absent
what are the type of cyanotic defects
tetralogy of fallot
transposition of the great arteries
tricuspid atresia
hypoplastic left heart syndrome
tetralogy of fallot
there is a hole between the lower chambers of the heart - aorta is above the whole
obstructs pathway between the heart and the lungs
hypertrophy of right lower chamber
transposition of the great arteries
two main arteries carrying blood away from the heart are reversed.
- body–heart –body (without being routed to the lungs for oxygen)
- lungs–heart–lungs (without delivering oxygen to the body)
tricuspid atresia
The valve isn’t formed between the two right heart chambers. Instead, a solid sheet of tissue blocks the blood flow between the right heart chambers
hypoplastic left heart syndrome
left side of the heart is extremely underdeveloped.
right side of the heart must pump blood to the lungs and to the rest of the body.
examples of acyan defects
coarctation of the aorta
arterial septal defect
ventricular septal defect
patent ductus arteriosus
coarctation of the aorta
A narrowing of the aorta that carries blood to the body.
- Decreased blood flow to the upper and lower extremities
- Causes high blood pressure and possibly heart damage over time
