Q

Transitional circulation (shortly after baby is born):

What happens to close the Foramen Ovale?

A

When the umbilical cord is clamped, the SVR rises, this causes L atrial pressure to rise and become greater than R atrial pressure. This closes the Foramen Ovale.

In fetal circulation, the FO shunts blood from RA to LA.

Q

Transitional circulation (shortly after baby is born):

What is the purpose of the Ductus Arteriosus?

What happens to cause this structure to close?

A
  • Shunts blood from the pulmonary trunk to the aorta

- SVR>PVR (increased PaO2 and decreased prostaglandins form placenta) influence closure.

Q

Transitional circulation (shortly after baby is born):

When is the Functional Closure of the Ductus Arteriosus?

When is the Anatomical Closure of the Ductus Arteriosus?

What is the adult Remnant?

A

-Functional closure: SVR>PVR (Shortly after birth when the cord is clamped and the baby breathes)

Anatomical Closure: Several weeks via fibrosis (apex) 3 mo- 1 year (per Bernstein’s slides)

Adult remnant: Ligamentum arteriosum

Key Point The ligament arteriosum can tear with rapid deceleration traumas and can range from a partial tear to a complete aortic dissection. (common with MVAs)

Q

Fetal and post natal myocardium is structurally and functionally immature with a limited ability to increase CO, compared to an older child. How does an infant increase their CO?

A

In order to increase CO, HR must increase.

FYI: Increases in preload cause little or no change in CO.

Q

T/F: Autonomic innervation is complete at birth.

A

False:

Parasympathetic innervation is fully functional at birth only. Infants are parasympathetic dominant and have very little SNS innervation. During stress, Bradycardia instead of tachycardia will occur.

a. hypotension
b. hypertension
c. hypotension without tachycardia
d. hypotension with tachycardia

A

c. hypotension without tachycardia

23
Q

A concern for paradoxical air embolism may occur in the neonate because of: _____?

a. mitral stenosis
b. patent foramen ovale
c. rate regulated cardiac output
d. changes in bp

A

b. patent foramen ovale. (embolism that travels directly to the brain, bypasses the lungs d/t R to L shunt)

paradoxical embolism (not specifically air) can occur with tetrology of fallot

24
Q

Hypotension is defined as

newborn:
1 year:
older than 1 year:

A

New born: SBP <60 mmHg
1 year: SBP <70
older than 1 year SBP less than: 70+ (age in yrs x 2)

Example:
for a 3 year old: 70+ (3 x 2)= 76 mmHg
SBP less than 76 = hypotension in a 3 year old.

25
Q

Septal defects:

When does cyanosis occur?

A

only if Pulmonary HTN is present

26
Q

What causes systolic and diastolic murmurs of atrial septal defects (ASD)?

A

Systolic murmur is caused by increased flow across the pulmonary valve (NOT the ASD)

Diastolic murmur is caused by increased flow across the triscupid valve and this suggests high flow Qp:Qs 2:1

27
Q

Eisenmenger syndrome:

A

Is considered a late complication of untreated ASD. As R atrial pressure rises, the shunt reverses (becomes R to L). Leading to development of pulmonary HTN, hypoxemia and cyanosis

28
Q

Is endocarditis prophylaxis required for ASD or VSD? (Antibiotic prophylaxis)

A

No, not unless an ASD or VSD repair was performed within the last 6 months.

29
Q

T/F: VSD is more common than ASD?

A

True.

VSD = 25% of all CHD
ASD = 10% of all CHD
30
Q

ASVD is more commonly seen with which chromosomal abnormality?

A

Down’s syndrome: Trisomy 21

seen in 20-25% of cases.

31
Q

Coartation is:

A

Narrowing of the arota at varying points anywhere from the transverse arch to the iliac bifurication.

  • male to female: 3:1
32
Q

What other heart anomaly is coarctation associated with?

A

Bicuspid aortic valve, seen in >70% of coarctation cases.

33
Q

What chromosomal syndrome is coarctation seen in?

A

Turner Syndrome: A chromosomal disorder in which a female is born with only one X chromosome

Also called: gonadal dysgenesis

Symptoms include short stature, webbed neck, delayed puberty, infertility, heart defects, and certain learning disabilities.
Treatment involves hormone therapy. Fertility treatment may be necessary for women who want to become pregnant.

34
Q

Signs/Symptoms of coarctation:

A
  • diminished or absent femoral pulses
  • 90% have systolic hypertension of the upper extremities
  • pulse discrepancy between R and L arms. (measure BP on R arm)
  • Higher BP in upper vs lower extremities, sometimes with hypoperfusion to the extremities.
  • systolic ejection murmur
  • cardiomegaly, rib notching on CXR.
35
Q

Severe Coarctation requires reopening or maintaining opening of which fetal circulatory shunt?

A

The Ductus Arteriosum with PGE-1.

36
Q

Endocarditis (antibiotic) prophylaxis is required for what CHD? (it’s a long list)

It’s probably easier to list who DOES NOT need prophylaxis.

A
  • Prosthetic valves
  • previous infective enocarditis
  • cardiac transplantation recipients who develop cardiac valvulopathy
  • unrepaired cyanotic CHD including palliative shunts and conduits.
  • completely repaired CHD with prosthetic material or device, during the 1st 6 months after procedure (ASD or VSDs)
  • CHD with residual defects a the site or adjacent to the site of a prosthetic patch or device.

-mild or simple CHD does not require Endocarditis Prophylaxis.

37
Q

Kawasaki disease:

A
  • mucosutaneousl lymph node syndrom
  • vasculitis
  • coronary artery dilation

A- anal atresia or imperforate anus

C- cardiovascular diseases (Ductal dependent lesions)

T- trachesoesophageal abnormalities

R- renal issues

L- limb defects (difficult vascular access.

39
Q

a. 110/60
b. 100/70
c. 95/65
d. 65/40

A

d. 65/40

For neonates: MAP is more important and should be around their post conceptual age. 50 weeks

SBP should not be less than 60.

40
Q

Does the premature infant’s heart exhibit greater or lesser sensitivity to catecholamines?

YES.
