Q

Innocent murmur - auscultatory findings

A
  • grade 1 -III/IV in intensity and localized
    • changes with position
    • may vary in loudness
  • may increase in loudness with illness or exercise
  • musical or vibratory in quality (sometimes blowing)
  • systolic in timing (except for venous hum - continuous)
  • duration is short
  • best heard in LLSB
  • may disappear with Valsalva maneuver
  • VS and ECG normal

18
Q

Heart condition for older than 1 yr

A

myocarditis

19
Q

Aortic Stenosis History

A
  • G&D may be normal
  • Activity intolerance/fatigue can develop with any age or increase with age
  • CHF, low Cardiac output, and shock may be evident in newborns
  • sudden death
20
Q

Aortic Stenosis PE

A
  • BP narrow pulse pressure
  • A grade III to IV/VI, loud harsh systolic crescendo-decrescendo murmur is best heard at the upper right sternal border with radiation to the neck, LLSB, and apex
  • With a valvular lesion, a faint early systolic click at the LLSB may be heard
  • With aortic insufficiency, an early diastolic blowing murmur is heard at the LLSB to apex
  • In the most severe lesions, S2 is single or closely split; S3 or S4 heart sound also be heard
  • A thrill may be present at the suprasternal notch
21
Q

Aortic Stenosis - Dx

A

Chest radiographs are usually normal or may show LVH. Adults frequently develop radiographic evidence of calcification on the aortic valve over time
ECG can be normal of reveal LVH and inverted T waves
A 24 hour Holter monitor or 30 day event monitor demonstrates ventricular arrhythmia
Echo is the diagnostic examination of choice

22
Q

Aortic Stenosis MGMT

A
  • Type and timing of treatment depend on the severity of the obstruction
  • Children with mild aortic stenosis can participate in all sports but should have annual cardiac examinations.
  • Those with moderate aortic stenosis should choose low-intensity sports as guided by their cardiologist.
  • Children with severe aortic stenosis or moderate with symptoms should avoid competitive or intensive sports because of the risk of sudden death from ventricular arrhythmias
23
Q

When to refer to cardiologist

A

Oxygen saturation less than 95%
Symptoms of CHF
A pathological murmur or a murmur that is difficult to differentiate in the presence of poor growth and development
A child with a murmur who is otherwise doing well should be referred to a pediatric cardiologist for further evaluation in a timely but not urgent manner
Newborns should be evaluated within 1-2 days of noticeable signs or immediately (change in breathing pattern, increases irritability and poor feeding, and/or cyanosis), depending on severity of symptoms
An older child with dizziness, chest pain with exertion, arrhythmia, dyspnea, syncope, signs of CHF, or abnormal vital signs should be referred ASAP

24
Q

Syncope Diagnostics

A
  • Orthostatic vital signs: more than a 30mm Hg drop in BP after standing for 5-10 seconds, or a baseline systolic pressure of less than 80mm Hg in an adolescent
  • Hemoglobin, if anemia is suspected: CBC, random glucose, and glucose tolerance tests for syncope.
  • 12 lead EKG
  • ECHO
25
Q

Vaccines in heart conditions

A
  • Live virus vaccines should be delayed until 6 months after cardiopulmonary bypass and exposure to red blood cells and plasma (Varicella and MMR)
  • Synagis if under 1yo
  • > 19 yo, Tdap regardless of interval to prevent pertussis
26
Q

Conditions where athlete cannot participate

A
  • carditis
  • structural/acquired heart dz
  • hypertrophic cardiomypathy
  • coronary artery anomalies
  • rheumatic fever carditis, infectious diarrhea, infectious conjunctivits
  • fever
