17
Q

meconium aspirated in utero or with first breath can result to

A

small airway obstruction and respiratory distress = grunting and cyanosis

18
Q

complete obstruction of airway = _______

partial obstruction = ____

A

complete obstruction = atelectasis and ventilation-perfusion mismatch
partial obstruction = half valve effect, air trapping, and air leaks

both = acidosis, hypoxemia, hypercapnia

19
Q

xray for meconium aspiration

A

patchy infiltrates coarse streaking of both lung fields
increase in ap diameter
flattened diaphragm

20
Q

management for meconium aspiration

A

preventive: identify and deliver
supportive: exogenous surfactant, inhaled NO, mechanical ventilation, extracorporeal oxygenation

21
Q

pathogenesis of congenital pneumonia

A

aspiration or ingestion of bacterial in amniotic fluid (maternal chorioamnionitis)

22
Q

clinical manifestations of congenital pneumonia

A

before delivery: fetal distress, tachy

during: failure to breathe, rd, shock
after: rd and shock

23
Q

treatment for congenital pneumonia

A
ampicillin iv (g+)
gentamicin (g-)
ampicillin + cefotaxime (after discharge)
24
Q

vessel transpositions in toga

A

aorta from rv

pulmonary artery from lv

25
Q

obligatory shunts in toga

A

patent foramen ovale

patent ductus arteriosus

26
Q

t/f in a pfo oxygenated blood will be shunted from left to right atrium

A

true

27
Q

t/f in a pda in toga, oxygenated blood from the aorta will go to the pulmonary artery

A

false, pulmonary artery to aorta

28
Q

clinical manifestations of toga

A

tachypnea and cyanosis in the first hours of life
moderate to severe hypoxemia
nonspecific pe findings

29
Q

diagnostic findings in toga

A

cxr: egg shaped heart
diagnostic ecg
cardiac catheterization

30
Q

management of toga

A

pge1 (for pda)
rashkind ballon atrial septostomy (to enlarge pfo)
jatene procedure (arterial switch within first 2 weeks)

31
Q

pathogenesis of tapvr

A
  • pulmonary veins connect to ra = oxygenated blood goes to right side
  • volume overload -> pressure increases -> ra and rv enlarge
  • —> pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary congestion, pulmonary edema = pediatric cardiac surgical emergency
32
Q

clinical manifestations of tapvr

A

respiratory distress and severe cyanosis not responsive to mechanical ventilation
crackles (pulm congestion/edema)
no murmur
loud single second heart sound

33
Q

diagnosis for tapvr

A

ecg: rvh + rad
echo w doppler: asd

demonstration of any vein wiith doppler flow away from the heart is pathognomonic

34
Q

management for tapvr

A

surgical correction

extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ecmo)

35
Q

components of tof

A

SHOP for a TOF

ventricular septal defect

Q

pathophysio of tof

A

vsd: malalignment between canal septum and lower portion of ventricular wall

37
Q

clinical manifestation of tof depends on __

A

source of pulmonary blood flow is pda

41
Q

blood flow in pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum

surgery
