- ECG
- Right axis deviation
- RVH in moderate PS (the degree of RVH depends on the severity of PS)
INVx for Pulmonary Stenosis
- ECHO
To assess the degree of the valve stenosis
Complications of Pulmonary Stenosis
- CHF may develop in patients with severe stenosis.
- Sudden death is possible in patients with severe stenosis during heavy physical activities.

- Acidemia
- Deferential cyanosis.
- Shock
Symptoms of Coartication of Aorta
- Deferntial Cyanosis
- O2 saturation measured in the right arm (preductal) is > in the leg (post-ductal) due to right-to-left shunting across the PDA into the descending thoracic aorta.

Signs of Coartication of Aorta
- Murmur
- 50% โโ> No murmur
- 50% โ-> Non-specific ejection systolic murmur over the precordium
- The heart murmur may become louder after treatment
Investigations for Coartication of Aorta
Investigations for Coartication of Aorta
- Chest X-Ray
Investigations for Coartication of Aorta
- ECG
- A normal or right axis deviation
- RVH or right bundle branch block (RBBB) are present rather than LVH.
- LVH is seen in older children
Investigations for Coartication of Aorta
- ECHO
2D echo and color flow Doppler studies usually show:
- Site of the coarctation
- Extent of the coarctation.
