Test 2 Flashcards
Due to higher pressure in left heart
Blood flows back to right heart via ASD/VSD
Type of shunt
What is the result
Left to Right
Pulmonary HTN
Blood bypasses the lungs and flows through ASD/VSD
Type of shunt
Results in
Right to Left
Cyanosis
Types of simple left to right shunt
ASD
VSD
AVSD
AP window
Simple right to left shunts
Tetrology of Fallot
Pulmonary atresia
Tricuspid atresia
Ebstein anomaly
Complex shunts
Transposition of Great Arteries
Truncus Arteriosus
Double outlet right ventricle
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
Secundum ASD causes
Left to right shunt
What hemodynamic alteration may worsen a left to right shunt
Increase in SVR
Most common congenital defect in children
VSD
VSD is what type of shunt
Left to right
Complete AV septal defect results in
Left to right shunt
Both atrial and ventricular components of defect and single common AV valve
Complete atrioventricular septal defect. AVSD
Blood flows from aorta to PA
Type of shunt
Patent ductus arteriosus
Left to right shunt
When does ductus arteriosus normally close
Within a few hours to few days after birth
Due to changes in pressures of the pulmonary vasculature
Name physiologic factor most responsible for closure of the ductus arteriosus after birth
Increased arterial oxygen tension (major factor)
Reduction in circulating prostaglandins
Foramen ovale is closes due to what type of closure
Mechanical closure
Shunt of PDA is what type of shunt
Left to right
With PDA what CV changes occur
Increased workload on L side of heart
LV hypertrophy
Increased PVR
Probable problem if pediatric patient has systolic and diastolic murmur
PDA
Preductal placement of pulse ox
Right hand
Postductal pulse ox placement
Lower limb
If pulse lost from lower limb during test clamp indicates what
Aorta inadvertently clamped
Preductal pulse ox location is index of what
Neonatal cerebral oxygenation
Postductal pulse ox in indicative of
Severity of right to left shunt
Where should arterial BP be measured in pt undergoing repair of PDA
Peripheral artery (femoral)
Post ductal
4 components of Tetrology of Fallot
Pulmonary stenosis
VSD
overriding aorta
RV hypertrophy
Tetrology of Fallot results in what type of shunt
Right to left
Cyanosis
Most common cyanotic CHD
Tetrology of Fallot
Tets spells occur when
There is and increase in right to left shunt
Decree of hypoxemia in tets spell depends on
Relationship between RV outlet tract obstruction and SVR that determines the degree of right to left shunt
To reverse shunt in tets spell need to
Increase SVR to reverse shunt
6 treatments for tets spell
100% 02
Hyperventilation
Increase preload
Sedation
Vasoconstriction (increase SVR)
Beta blocker to relax infundibular spasm and reduce HR
Surgical management of Tetrology of Fallot
Complete repair
Closure of VSD and RVOTO
Modified BT shunt
Modified BT shunt MOA
Conduit attatch in R subclavian to PA
Passive flow to lungs
Post of pulmonary blood supply is size of predominantly dependent on size of BT shunt
Too small
Too large
Small- low sat
Large- heart failure, pulmonary edema
Pulmonary blood flow is dependent on size of BP shunt and what
SBP
Greater BP=more flow to lungs = higher saturation
Which way does blood flow through VSD in Tetrology of Fallot
Right to left
Cyanosis
What pharmacological agent decreases right to left shunt
Why
Phenylephrine
Increases SVR to decrease shunt
Anatomy of transposition of great vessels
Aorta from RV
PA from LV
Ductal patency of DA is maintained after birth with
Prostaglandin 1 infusion
Ballon atrial septostomy
