CardiacDefect Gget a f can occur alone or with a congenitalsyndrome ex down syndrome classified on blood flow not the patient's symptoms NEEG.IE Id t in the atrium eart right the blood is pumpedthrough the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle the blood then goes through the pulmonary artery into the lungs blood is oxygenated and returns to the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium oxygenated blood travels through the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle then out of the heart through the aorta and throughout the body Common Pediatric Heart atrials atrioventricular canal defect coarctation of the aorta COA Ebstein anomaly hypoplastic left heart syndrome HHS patent ductus arteriosus PDA pulmonary artesia pulmonary valve stenosis tetralogy of

bata.at ovale to close at birth ttlt repair at 5 6 years old often spontaneous closure before that the closure method depends on the size of the defect 6 months of ASA afterwards can cause more damage to septal wall deoxygenated blood is circling through once fixed can give child aspirin feed wire through femoral artery putthrough defect trigger closure patching up septal wall defect don't need heart surgery LeularseptalDefect opening bewe iies often seen with other congenital heart defects 30 50 close spontaneously by 3 years of age 3 4 heart yrs of age patch graft or open surgery CHF

fetal ductus arteriosus to close common in preemies usually closes at 72 hrs of life but can be up to 2 3 weeks normally decreased maternal prostaglandins cause closure in full term newborns machine him murmur bounding pulses wide pulse pressure echocardiogram Closure via cardiac catheterization or surgery to Clip close the patent vessel trans catheter closure doctors can insert a soft wire mesh PDA closure device a g catheter a long narrow tube to stop blood flow through a PDA this non surgical approach is performed in the catheterization lab under fluoroscope if this does not work open heart surgery is the next step L ftheAorta narrowing of the aorta beyond the aortic arch causes obstructed flow from ventricles symptoms flow upper extremities increased BP blood nose bleeds headaches bounding carotids lower extremities decreased BP blood flow weak pulses Cool weak muscle tone leg cramps CHF regime fluids OSA BP excerise restrictions until repaired transportation of great arteries vessels aorta switch position pulmonary artery and function changes no communication between pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation treatment immediately after birth keep as many prenatal structures open as possible prostaglandin to keep ductus open create VSD to mix ventricular blood keep or create ASD to mix arterial blood surgical correction arterial switch surgery major arteries are switched I 1gyoffal 1 USD 2 pulmonic stenosis 3 overriding aorta 4 right ventricular hypertrophy Signs and symptoms cyanosis systolic murmur JET spells blue spells hyper cyanotic spells TET Spells at birthinfants may not show cyanosis signs but may develop bluish skin episodes from crying or feeding Treatment place in knee chest position 1 administer 100 02 blow by morphine IV SQ or IV fluid replacement for expansion Repair usually done in the first year of life as cyanosis and hyper cyanotic spells increase done I at a time may continue to need CHFregimen postoperatively CHF assessments impaired myocardial function tachycardia diaphoresis decreased urinary output fatigue pale and cool extremities weak peripheral pulses FTT anorexia pulmonary congestion tachypnea dyspnea retractions

phase abrupt onset of fever not resolved with antipyretics irritable edema erythema of palms and soles Subacute phase begins with the resolution of fever until all symptoms resolve highest risk for coronary artery aneurysms baseline EKG's echo continuously monitor no rhythm changes in Convalescent phase symptoms resolve but lab work is not back to baseline Treatment culture negative for strep
