50
Q

What is contrast injections for ASD/PFO?

A

Peripheral venous injections of contrast material (microbubbles) show passage of micro-bubbles into the LA from RA even when flow is most LT&raquo_space; RT. this is due to the temporary time period in the cardiac cycle when RA pressure exceeds LA pressure

Measurements of stroke volume at 2 intracardiac sites

72
Q

In most cases we can see shunt quantification where? (QP/QS)

75
Q

What does this image demonstrate?

A

ASD flow is represented by cylinders

  1. Flow enters the RA from the LA through the ASD

  3. Flow entering the LA through the pulmonary veins increased
76
Q

What does this image demonstrate?

A

PDA flow represented by cylinders
Note that

  1. Flow shunts from descending aorta to the pulmonary artery
  2. Flow to lungs is increased
  3. Flow to the pulmonary veins, LA, MV, LV, and LVOT are increased
76
Q

What does this diagram demonstrate?

A

VSD Flow represented by cylinders
Note that:

  1. Flow from the LV enters the RV through the VSD
  2. RVOT flow is increased
  3. Flow to the lungs is increased
  4. Flow to the pulmonary veins and MV is increased, this may lead to dilation of the LA and RA
77
Q

78
Q

RVSP is the absence of what?

A

RV outflow obstruction

79
Q

How do we calculate RVSP with VSD?

A
80
Q

VSDs are usually small and about what?

A

5-6 m/sec, if large in adult, eisenmenger’s will set in

81
Q

What do we report in terms of intracardiac shunts? What did we need to do for a successful interrogation? 4

A
  1. Location (describe the actual name if you can)
  2. When the heart is not immediately visible from parasternal view (try looking for situs abnormalities form the subcostal window)
