L4: Acyanotic Heart Diseases - PDA & ASD Flashcards
Incidence of PDA
Anatomy of PDA
Pathophysiology of PDA
Pathophysiology of PDA
The extent of the shunt depends on:
There is a wide pulse pressure (due to runoff of blood into PA during diastole)

Signs of ASD
- Inspection & Palpation
Signs of ASD
- Auscultation
- Diastolic murmur of tricuspid stenosis is similar to that of mitral stenosis
- Except that itโs heard best at the left lateral sternal border and may radiate to the apex or xiphoid.
โฆ
Small ASD is asymptomatic and there are no significant findings on auscultation.

Investigations for ASD
Investigations for ASD
- Chest X-Ray
Investigations for ASD
- ECG
- RT axis deviation
- RAE & RVE
- rsRโ Pattern on V1
Investigations for ASD
- ECHO
Same as VSD
Investigations for ASD
- Catheter
Indications:
- Atypical finding
- Trans-catheter closure (therapeutic)
Complications of ASD
Managmenet of ASD
Management of ASD
- Medical
Management of ASD
- Surgical
Prognosis of ASD
- Once pulmonary HTN occur, shunt reversal occurs (that is too late)
- Mortality < 1%.
