52
Q

fertilized egg compostition

A

70% placenta
30% you

53
Q

placenta

A

mass of capillary beds, fetal & maternal capillaries do not touch so exchange of nutrients is through diffusion

54
Q

unique features of fetal pulmonary circulation

A

foramen ovale - shunt/hole in the interatrial spetum to reduce amount of blood passing to right ventricle.
ductus arteriorsis - shunt/path btw pulmonary trunk & aorta for what blood has left right ventricle to go to lungs

55
Q

unique features in fetal systemic circulation

A
  1. Umbilical a.s branch off internal iliac a.s bring deoxygenated blood to placenta
  2. Placenta exchanges gases, nutrients, wastes
  3. Umbilical v.s branch off placenta to return oxygenated blood to body
  4. Ductus venosus (shunt to bypass liver) where umbilical v. connects to inferior vena cava
56
Q

circulatory changes at birth

A
  1. Loss of umbilical arteries/veins & ductus venosus
  2. Ductus arteriosus closes (separating pulmonary and systemic circuits)
  3. Infant breathes so pulmonary circuit starts
  4. Blood flows into left atria so foramen ovale closes = fossa ovalis
57
Q

circulatory problems at birth

A
  1. foreman ovale doesn’t close
  2. ductus arteriosus doesn’t close
  3. Coarctation of aorta - aorta closes so it is critical to develop a collateral circulation
