Left to Right shunt Flashcards
3 types of ASD
secundum defect, primum
defect, and sinus venosus defect.
Only defect that lies inside the fossa ovalis
Ostium Secundum Defect
Most common type of ASD
Ostium Secundum Defect
Anterior to the fossa ovalis
Ostium Primum Defect
this is present 10% of ostium secundum ASD
Anomalous pulmo Venous return
Posterior to the fossa ovalis
Sinus Venosus Defect
physical signs of ASD
Relatively slender body build
precordial bulge
hyperdynamic cardiac impulse
medical management of ASD
diuretic in infants with CHF
preferred method for non surgical closure
catheter delivered closure device
kind of murmur in ASD
systolic ejection murmur at 2nd LICS
most common CHD
VSD
location of perimembranous defects (VSD)
beneath aoritc valve, posterior to the papillary muscles
most common VSD
Perimembranous defects
location of indundibular or conal (outlet) VSSD
beneath pulmonic valve
outlet defect is associated with
aortic insufficiency
location of inlet defect
posterior and inferior to the perimembranous
defect beneath the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve
location of midmuscular defect
posterior to the septal band
location of apical muscular defect
near the cardiac apex
this may be seen in ECG in those with moderate VSD
Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (QRS widening) and
left atrial hypertrophy (Notching of P wave) may be
seen
this may be seen in ECG in those with large VSD
Biventricular hypertrophy with or without LAH
these serve as markers of specific type of VSD except for trabecular defects
cardiac valves
