|
ductus venosus
|
bypasses liver
carries oxygenated blood from umbilical vein through fetal liver to the inferior vena cava |
|
|
Foramen ovale
|
bypasses lungs
opening at lower portion of atrial septum in fetal heart |
|
|
Ductus Arteriousus
|
bypasses lungs
channel of communication between main pulmonary artery and aorta in fetus |
|
|
signs of CHF
|
tachycardia
peripheral vasoconstriction diaphoresis decreased UOP edema [increased weight] lung engorgement lethargy, irritability, decreased weight |
|
|
Patent Ductus Arterious
|
connection between the pulmonary artery and aorta
MOST COMMON L-R continuous machinery-like murmur fatigue, dyspnea, frequent infections decreased growth can use Indocin with inhibits prostaglandins and closes PDA without surgery |
|
|
Ventricular Septal Defect
|
abnormal opening in septum between vents
L-R systemic circulation robbed of blood harsh, pan-systolic murmur congestive HF fatigue, increased infections, growth retardation surgery-- palliative [banding] corrective [suture of small defects, dacron patch for larger] |
|
|
atrial septal defect
|
abnormal opening in the wall between the left and right atria
L-R often asymptomatic murmur, fatigue surgery- suture of patch cardiac catheterization |
|
|
Coarctation of the aorta
|
constriction of the lumen of the aorta at any point
NO shunting of blood BP is elevated above contriction and decreased below constriction HA, stroke, nose bleed cold feet, mm spasms surgery-- good results |
|
|
Tetralogy of Fallot
|
4 defects:
pulmonary stenosis VSD over-riding of the aorta R vent hypertrophy allows mixing of blood!! decreased blood supply to lungs central cyanosis murmur blue speels very poor growth polycythemia clubbing complete repair [requires cardio-pulmonary bypass] Good prognosis |
