right axis deviation (>90degrees), right atrial enlargement, dominant right ventricular forces over precordial leads

18
Q

CXR shows what on tetralogy of fallot

A

boot shaped heart d/t pulmonary artery segment and upturned apex

19
Q

what is the treatment of tetralogy of fallot

A

repair and palliative surgery

20
Q

what is the term for blood bypassing the lungs and not becoming oxygenating

A

Hypercyanotic “Tet” spell

21
Q

what do you monitor for in surgical mgmt of tetralogy of fallot

A

erythrocytosis, iron deficiency, anemia, coag disorders

22
Q

what is considered a “tet” spell

A

sudden onset or deepening of cyanosis, sudden dyspnea, alterations in consciousness, decrease or disappearance of systolic murmur

23
Q

treatment of tet spells

A

oxygen, tripod position, correct acidosis, morphine, propranolol

24
Q

what is palliation treatment of tetralogy of fallot

A

betablockers, systemic arterial to pulmonary arterial anastamosis, balloon angioplasty

25
Q

what is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease presenting in neonatal period

A

transposition of the great arteries

26
Q

what is the definition of the transposition of great arteries

A

aorta arises from the right ventricle and pulmonary artery arises from the left ventricle

27
Q

SSx of transposition of the great arteries

A

severely cyanotic in first hours of life, no resp distress, CHF sx, SOB, right ventricular heave, large infants, males

28
Q

what is the treatment of transposition of the great arteries

A

PGE1 to keep PDA open and increase aorta to pulmonary artery shunting, dig, diuretic therapy, rashkind balloon artial septostomy

29
Q

What are the sx of valvular aortic stenosis

A

absent often even when severe, fatigue, doe, chest pain or exertional syncope, CHF

30
Q

what are the signs of valvular aortic stenosis

A

loud, harsh systolic murmur, ejection click, aortic sound, low systolic bp, left ventricle prominent

31
Q

what is the treatment of valvular aortic stenosis

A

exercise restriction, catheter balloon valvuloplasty, surgical calcotomy

32
Q

What common disease is associated with coarctation of the aorta

A

Turner syndrome in females

33
Q

presentation of the coarctation of aorta

A

Diastolic murmurand HTN, no femoral pulses felt

34
Q

exam for coarctation of aorta

A

35
Q

treatment for infants with low coarctation of the aorta

A

prostaglandin infusion to reopen ductus arteriosis, inotropic support, corrective surgery

36
Q

treatment for infants with nonacute correction of coarctation of aorta

A

balloon angioplasty, surgical, aortic stent placement in adults, correct before age 5

37
Q

presentation of murmur in an infant

A

poor feeding, failure to thrive, tachypnea

38
Q

When are prostaglandins utilized in an infant with murmur and dyspnea

A

newborns

42
