|
In the fetal heart, intention blood shunting will always be left to right or right to left?
|
right to left!!
|
|
In an adult heart, an anomality that results in shunting will lead to more severe symptoms if the blood is shunted right to left or left to right? Why?
|
Right to left!!!
allows deoxygenated blood into arterial flow, reducing oxygen delivery to body |
|

|
Tetralogy of Fallot
Transposition of the great arteries (right ventricular aorta & left ventricular pulmonary trunk) |
|
What does left to right shunting cause?
What are some examples of defects that cause left to right shunting? |
allows some of the oxygenated blood the be lost from arterial flow, doesn't cause any extreme immediate issues.
patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) atrial septal defect (ostium secundum defect, patent foramen ovale) ventricular septal defect (membranoue portion defect) |
|
What is the main factor contributing to the direction of shunted blood.
|
Usually blood will be shunted away from the higher pressure = left to right shunting
Sometimes pressure differential will be overridden by large structures that direct flow = right to left shunting |
|
What is the difference between cyanotic and non-cyanotic defects?
|
Cyanotic defects- (early cyanotic) are caused by right to left shunting
compromises oxygenated blood supply, leads to hypoxia=cyanosis Non-cyanotic- (late cyanotic) defects cause left to right shunting lose some of arterial blood, but supply remains oxygenated, no immediate effects |
