How does the fetal heart form?

A

Mesodermal cells form two heart tubes connected by an arch.
The two tubes merge into one heart tube.
The heart tube folds and the internal structure separates into four chambers.

Q

Septum Secundum & Foramen ovale

A

After the foramen secundum forms in the septum primum, the septum secundum grows down from the ventral part of the roof of the right atrium.
It does not fuse with the endocardial cushions.
This gap is the foramen ovale.
The pressures at birth force the septum secundum against the septum primum and closes the gap of the foramen ovale.

Q

What are the benefits of delayed cord clamping?

A

Increased iron, decreased anemia.
Increased blood volume.
Increased stem cells to newborn.
(Increased fine motor and social skills at age 4)
Decreases risk of newborn/birther separation.
Decreased risk of intraventricular hemorrhage in preemies.
Decreased risk of necrotising enterocolitis in preemies.

35
Q

Discuss the closure of the foramen ovale.

A
  1. First breath, lungs expand.
  2. Capillary bed in lungs expands, decreasing vascular resistance in the lungs. More blood is enters the pulmonary trunk.
  3. Flow from lungs to L atria increases, pressure in L atria is greater then pressure in R and pushes against septum primum, closing foramen ovale.
36
Q

Patent Foramen Ovale

A

Foramen ovale does not close.
In most people does not cause serious complications, but may need surgery if severity is high.

37
Q

Discuss the closure of the Ductus Arteriosus.

A

1.Drop in prostaglandins from placenta. Protaglandins helped to keep the ductus open.
2. Increase in newborn pO2 initiates constriction of ductus arteriosus tissue.
Becomes ligamentum arteriosum.
With closure, output from R vent goes to lungs and output from L vent goes to systemic circ.

38
Q

Discuss the closure of the umbilical vein and ductus venosus.

A

Cord is clamped and no blood enters umbilical vein.
Residual blood in vein clots.
Umbilical vein becomes round ligament of liver.
Ductus venosus loses blood flow and closes.
Ductus venosus becomes ligamentum venosum.

39
Q

Discuss the obliteration of the umbilical arteries.

A

Arteries obliterate and can be seen as medial umbilical ligaments on the anterior abdominal wall.

40
Q

What are the 3 main epicardial coronary arteries and their branches?

A

Right coronary artery - acute marginal & posterior descending artery.

Left main coronary artery:
Left anterior descending artery - diagonal branches.
Left circumflex artery - obtuse marginal branches.

41
Q

A

Ventricular systole

42
Q

What results in abnormal heart sounds?

A

Abnormal valve movements.
Abnormal cardiac movements.

43
Q

S1 heart sound

A

AV valves closing

44
Q

S2 heart sound

A

Semilunar valves closing
Should be able to hear both

45
Q

What is the time interval between S2 and S1?

A

Diastole

46
Q

S3

A

Occurs in early diastole.
Occurs in the prescence of a volume overloaded ventricle.
Rapid cessation of blood flow in early diastole results in an abnormal heart sound.

47
Q

S4

A

Occurs in late diastole.
Occurs in the presence of a pressure overloaded ventricle.
Extra pressure and volume from atrial contraction into a stiff ventricle results in an abnormal heart sound.

48
Q

Ejection click

A

Abnormal opening of a semilunar valve.
Most commonly bicuspid aortic valve.

49
Q

Opening snap

A

Rheumatic mitral valve stenosis

50
Q

Which side of the heart has lower pressures?

A

Right.
The pulmonary circulation is a low resistance circulation. The pressure from the right side of the heart is lower even though the volumes are the same.
The right ventricle is thinner walled.

51
Q

What are the 2 components of the S1 sound?

A

Mitral valve closure (M1)
Tricuspid valve closure (T1)
Timing is almost simultaneous. Won’t hear them separately in a healthy heart.

52
Q

What are the 2 components of the S2 sound?

A

Aortic semilunar valve (A2)
Pulmonary semilunar valve (P2)
Can hear these separately, called S2 split.

53
Q

Why do the valve closures on the left happen earlier than the right?

A

Because the right side is lower pressure than the left.

54
Q

Discuss inspiration and cardiac blood flow

A
  1. Negative intrathoracic pressure - decreases pulmonary resistance - volume of blood returning to R hear increases - more blood stays in the pulmonary vasculature.
  2. R side pressure decreases.
  3. L side pressure also decreases d/t blood staying in the pulmonary vasculature.
  4. L heart valves close earlier d/t decreased pressure.
  5. Volume of blood through the R side of the heart increases d/t decreased pulmonary vascular resistance, resulting in later closure of valves.

RESULT: On inspiration, the S2 split increases.

55
Q

Heart murmur

A

Increased or turbulent blood flow.
Flow must be dependent on a pressure gradient. No pressure, no flow, no murmur.

56
Q

When are increased flow states seen in the heart?

A

Increased flow through normal structures:
Anemia, pregnancy, high metabolic states.

Turbulent flow through narrow orifices:
Narrowed valved, incompetent valve, shunt (septal defect).

Flow into a larger chamber:
Aortic aneurysm.

The higher the flow or turbulence = more prominent murmer.

57
Q

P wave

A

Atrial contraction
Increases LA pressure - results in atrial A wave with subsequent X descent.

58
Q

QRS complex

A

Ventricular contraction

59
Q

Isovolumetric contraction time (IVCT)

A

Period of time during which the LV pressure increases but the LV volume stays the same (both valves are closed).

60
Q

T wave

A

Ventricular relaxation.
Late systole.
Mitral valve closed but blood still flows into the LA, increasing LA pressure, contributing to the V wave.

61
Q

Isovolumetric relaxation time (IVRT)

A

LV pressure decreases but the LV volume remains constant (aortic and mitral valves are closed).

62
Q

How are aortic pressures reported?

A

Systolic/diastolic/(mean)

63
Q

How are LV pressures reported?

A

Systolic/diastolic/(LVDEP)

64
Q

How are LA pressures reported?

A

A/VI/(mean)

65
Q

Which heart valves are septophilic?
Septophobic?

A

Septophilic: Tricuspid (RAV) - chordae can insert directly into the interventricular septum.
Septophobic: Mitral valve.

66

71
Q

Discuss the blood flow in an ASD.

A

Hole in the atrial septum allows for mixing of blue and pink blood.
Pressure in higher in the L atrium, forcing pink blood into the R atrium through the hole.
R atrium dilates to accommodate increased volume.
R ventricle and pulmonary artery also dilate.
Blood flow increased to the lungs.
Acyanotic.

72

RV hypertrophy.
**Anterior deviation of the infundibular septum.
Varying levels of cyanosis.
Prone to tet spells.

74
Q

Blood flow patterns of Tetralogy of Fallot.

A

Pink blood enters L atrium and then into L ventricle.
Blood then goes in two directions; into aorta or through VSD into R ventricle.
Blood pumped from R vent through narrow RVOT and small PA.
Blue blood enters R atrium then into R vent.
Blue blood shunts to L ventricle through VSD and out the aorta.
Varying levels of cyanosis occur.

75
Q

How is Tetralogy of Fallot managed?

A

Most common:
VSD patch so that hole is fixed and aorta arises from L vent at 6 months.
Open the RVOT with monocusp transannular patch - needs future surgeries.

76

A

Circulation is connected in parallel rather than series.
PA arises from L vent.
