opening in the septum that separates the two ventricles 80% involve the _thin membraneous septum_ 20% involve the _muscular septum_ can be isolated or compllex lesions (can be associated with other cardiac issues)
41
ventricular septal defect: **small "restrictive" VSD** what is this? what is normal? what is abnormal that occurs? 2 key sxs to know?
MOST COMMON SIZE ## Footnote large resistance through small hole **normal right ventircular pressure and pulmonary artery pressure** **_small left to right shunt (since left side of hear it high pressure and right is low pressure)_** \*\*aka no enough blood is going left to right that it increases the pressure on the right side of the heart\* SXS: 1. _harsh **holosystolic murmur** along left sternal border, present about 36 hours after birth_ \*\*think about it, there is a bunch of blood trying to fit through a tinny hole, so the whole time it is pumping you get a murmer _2. possible systolic thrill at left lower sternal border_
42
ventricular septal defect: **mod-large ventricular SD** what happens in this? what are 5 things that can happen that are bad as an effect? sxs resemble?
**increase the pressure in the RV and pulmonary ateries because enough blood is pumping over to increase it** can cause as a result: 1. pulmonary artery Hypertension 2. pulmonary vascaulr obstructive disease 3. if large, LV dilation and failure 4. _HF in 80% of infants with large​_ 5. _endocarditis_ SXS: **SIGNS AND SXS OF HF!!!**

46
what are the long term complications of ventricular septal defect? ## Footnote 3 key things? 1 overall change? two outcomes?
1. **pulmonary arterial hypertension PAH can lead to irrersible pulmonary vascular obstructive disease PVOD** 2. significant PVOD leads to _pulmoary vascular restistance and pulmonary artery pressure increase_ and can lead to shunt reversal, and right to left shunting \*\*think about it!!!...as more blood going from left to right the damange on the right side fo the heart and pulmonary artert increases,causing back up into the RV this creases the pressure to increase here and then flow from the highp pressure of the right ventricle to the relatively low pressure of left ventricle\*\* **_eisenmenger's physiological complex_** 3. leads to hypoxemia and right sided HF since this gives out and the oxygen then bypasses the lungs **_​_**
47
atrial septal defect ## Footnote what is this? what percent of people does this occur in? why? 2 main physiology things occur? why?
a hole between the two atria in the heart occurs in 25% of people caused by lack of fusion leaving patent foramen ovale physiology: 1. _left to right shunting from_: rt atrium more distensible than left RV more compliant that LV PuVR more than SVR LA pressure higher that RA 2. _hemodynamic burden_: _from right ventricular oolume overload since more is going from the right atrium into right ventricle_ well tolerated for many years
48
atrial septal defect ## Footnote what are the 4 physical findings? what are the 2 ways this is dxed?
1. **hyperdyanamic RV:** RV vlume increases leading to increase contraction via starling mechanism 2. **accentuated S1 at LLSB** **3. _S2 wildly split_** through inspiration and expiration 4. Grade II-III _cresendo-decresendo murmur_ DX: 1. EKG: afib/aflutter 2. **_echodoppler_**
49
atrial septal ## Footnote what are the three options and when are they appropriate?

53
what are the 3 anatomical type of atrial septal defect?
1. _ostium secundum: defect in middle septum_ ## Footnote 2. _ostium primum: defect in the lower atrial septum_ _3. sinus venous defect: high in atrial septum_
54
explain the course of atrial septal defect throughout a persons life? 5 sxs
1. **_MOST CHILDREN ARE ASYMPTOMATIC SO DX OFTEN MISSED IN CHILDREN_** 2. _**systolic ejection murmer** and sxs (fatigue, dyspnea, decreased stamina) present in **20s**_ 3. 3rd-4td decased adults become increasingly symptomatic **_incidence of atrial fib and flutter increase_** 4. **_paradoxicl emboli can result in stroke_** (venous emcbolism) 5. **premature death and heart failure occur in adults who go untreated**
55
in atrial septal defect, what 3 parts of the heart become enlarged? why?
RA RV and pulmonary artery _volume overload_ since there is so much coming from the left atrium over, it effects everything after the RA this can cause _pulmonary HTN to occur late in the disease_
56
what are the 2 different pressure gradients between the right ventricle and pulmonic artery indicate?
RV to PA: 40 mmHG=mod pulm stenosis ## Footnote RV to PA: 75 mmHg=severe pulm stenosis
