21
Q

3 foetal shunts

A

ductus venosus
foramen ovale
ductus arteriosus

22
Q

carries nutrients from umbilical vein to IVC bypassing portal circulation

A

ductus venosus

23
Q

R->L atrium shunt

A

foramen ovale

24
Q

is a link from the pulmonary bifurcation to the descending aorta

A

ductus arteriosus

25
Q

Ibruprofen in foetus =

A

PGE2 inhibited and ductus arteriosus closes

prevents aorta and carotids getting best oxygenated blood

26
Q

First breath causes the lungs to ___ => increased ___ and pulmonary vessels ___ => ____ pulmonary resistance

A

inflate ->increased pO2 => decreased pulmonary resistance

27
Q

systemic vascular resistance increases in a baby when ____

A

the umbilical cord is clamped - placenta (large, low resistance vascular bed) removed

28
Q

____ and ____ at birth cause foramen ovale to shut

A

first breath
AND
cord being clamped

29
Q

Factors that decrease PDA after birth =

A

decreased pulm resistance - less flow through
less PGE2 from placenta and more metabolised by lungs
increased O2 => SM of duct constricts

30
Q

metabolises PGE2 after birth

A

lungs

31
Q

Functional closure of PDA occurs after ___
Anatomical closure occurs at ___
becomes ____

A

hrs-days
7-10 days
ligamentum arteriosus

32
Q

In preterm PDA remains patent as ___

A

SM not developed enough

33
Q

Treatment for PDA =

A

NSAIDS

surgery - duct ligation

34
Q

congenital defect that requires PDA eg.

so give ___ to keep patent until deifinitive surgery

A

interruption of aortic arch

IV PGE2

35
Q

PPHN (persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn) is due to ___ =>

A

lung resistance not falling after birth => PDA and patent foramen ovale => cyanosis

36
Q

In PPHN there is a ___ in the pre(Rarm) and post (Lleg) ductal SaO2

A

big difference

37
Q

Treatment of PPHN

A

ventilate
O2 + NO inhaled - vasodilators
ECLS - extra-corporeal life support - bypasses lung

38
Q

PPHN is commoner in ___ babies due to

A

sick

sepsis, acidotic, hypoxic ischaemic insult, meconium aspiration syndrome, cold

39
Q

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is an example of an anatomical abnormality that can cause ___

A

PPHN - persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn

40
Q

Congenital heart defects detected within 1-2 days of life usually present with

A

murmurs
abnormal pulses
cyanosis

41
Q

Congenital HDs detected in day 3-7 of life usually present with

A

sudden circulatory collapse, shock, cyanosis, sudden death

42
Q

Congenital HDs detected 4-6wks after birth usually present with

A

signs of HF, less feeding, SOB, sweaty

43
Q

Cyanotic congenital heart defects =

A

transposition of the great vessels
tetralogy of fallot
tricuspid atresia
pulmonary atresis with intact ventricular septum
total anomalous pulmonary venous connections

44
Q

Systemic circulation PDA dependant lesions eg.s

A

hypoplastic LH
critical aortic stenosis
interrupted aortic arch
critical coarctation of the aorta

45
Q

pulmonary circulation PDA dependant lesions eg.s

A

pulmonary or tricuspid atresia

46
Q

If have duct dependant lesion with no PDA then presents:

A
3-5 days (if undiagnosed)
pale
