L to R Shunts (4)
ASD, VSD, PDA, AVSD (Think 4 D's)
A complete obstruction
Atresia
R to L Shunts (5)
Tetralogy of Fallot; Transposition of Great Vessels; Truncus Arteriosus; Tricuspid Atresia; Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return (TAPV); Think 5 T's
What do children with R to L shunts do to increase systemic vascular resistance?
Squat
Timing of Cyanosis in Shunts
R to L (Blue Babies); L to R (Blue Kids)
Most Common Cardiac Congenital Anomaly
VSD
Syndrome caused by increased pulmonary resistance leading to RA thickening producing progressive pulmonary HTN and L to R shunt reversal (now R to L)
Eisenmenger's
How would you close a PDA?
Indomethacin (i.e. antiprostaglandin)
What are the elements in Tetralogy of Fallot?
Pulmonary Stenosis (Dx); RVH; Overriding Aorta (Overides VSD); VSD (Think PROVe)
Etiology of Tetralogy of Fallot.
Anterior Superior Displacement of infundibular septum
Boot shaped CXR due to RVH is characteristic of what congenital heart defect?
Tetralogy of Fallot
How does squatting help with R to L shunts?
Compression of Femoral Arteries yields increase in systemic pressure to decrease R to L shunt and increase flow to lungs.
Describe Transposition of great vessels.
Aorta from RV (ant) and pulmonary trunk from LV (post), not compatible with life unless shunt present from mixing (e.g. VSD, PDA, PFO)
What is the etiology of transposition of great vessels?
Failure of the aorticopulmonary septum to spiral.
What are the two types of coarctation of the aorta?
Infantile (Preductal) & Adult (Postductal) (Think INfantile as IN close to heart and ADult as Distal to Ductus)
Describe C of A (Infantile Type)
Aortic stenosis proximal to insertion of ductus arteriosus (preductal)
Describe C of A (AdultType)
stenosis distal to DA; notching of ribs due to collateral circulation, HTN in upper extremeties, weak lower extremety pulses (XO assoc.)
Sequlae of PDA
Dec. lung resistance and shunt from L to R with RVH and failure; "machine-like" murmur; PGE maintains patency
What maintains a PDA? Tx?
PGE; Indomethacin
What is the characteristic murmur of PDA?
Continuous machine-like murmur
DDX for holosystolic murmur.
MR; TR; VSD
22q11 (DiGeorge)

(Disorder to Defect)
Truncus arteriosus, ToF
Trisomy 21

(Disorder to Defect)
ASD, VSD, AVSD
Congenital Rubella

(Disorder to Defect)
L to R Shunts, pulmonary artery stenosis
Turner's (XO)

(Disorder to Defect)
C of A
Marfan's (FBN 1)

(Disorder to Defect)
Aortic insufficiency and dissection
Offspring of diabetic mother

(Disorder to Defect)
Transposition of Great Vessels
Most common type of ASD.
Secundum
What is Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC)?
No pulmonary veins directly join the left atrium
