A

Might be present

90
Q

With DORV, if there is an increase in PS what does this mean?

A

Less flow to the lungs, which means its a worse prognosis

91
Q

What is a coarctation of the aorta?

A

A congenital luminal narrowing of the aorta due to a posterior “shelf”

92
Q

With Coarctation of aorta when might we see cyanosis?

A

When severe

93
Q

Where does Coarcation of aorta usually occur?

A

Near the ductus arteriosus which may still be patent

94
Q

What is the hemodynamics of coarcation of aorta,if there is a PDA?

A

Much of the blood ejected into the aorta shunts into the PA through the ductus arteriosus if present, then back to the left heart.
