Test # 2 ch6,78 Flashcards
Tap
sharp, well-localozed
associated with pressure-overload
Quality / pitch of murmurs
pitch is : high, medium or low
high: turbuemce from a high pressure to a low pressure
aortic or mitral insufficiency
low presure difference is mitral stenosis (low-pressure turbuence in the flow)
Prevalence of CHD (truncus, VSD, ASD, Coarc,transposition, TOF, Ebstein’s, interupted aortic arch, pulmonary atresia, tricuspid atresia, TAPVR, DORV, AV Canal,& HLHS
82/10000
Drugs affecting he heart
amphetamines, alcohol, anticonvulsants (hydantoins, trimethadione, valproic acid, carbamasepine), lithium, retonic acid, thalidomide, coumadin
L&D history
perinatal hypoxia, maternal infection, drugs
s1
closure of mitral and tricuspid at the onselt of ventricular systole
heard most loudly at the apex
Loud at birth
decreases in intensity
s1 usually single; not split
Thorough Maternal History
SLE, maternal diabetes and maternal CHD
Heaves
PMI is slow rising and difuse
heaves are associated with volume overload
Mitral
4th intercostal space, left midclavicular line
Grade IV murmur
Louder
may be associated with a thrill
Genetic factors important for CHD
-gather details about siblings (3-5% chance for recurrence)
Several disorders might demonstrate dominatn of recesie patterns are associated with specific CH defects
Systolic ejection murmur
most common innocent murmur
grade I-II
best heard mid and upper left sternal border
vibratory
increases the risk for CHD 3-4 times that of he general population
Maternal Diabetes
Grade VI
Extremely loud
can be heard with the stethoscope being slightly removed from the chest
maybe a thrill
s3
present in the apex if heard
siglals a rapd or increased flow across th AV valves (rapid ventricular filling)
Heard in preemies with a PDA
