Result of early membranous VSD?
when do you see symptoms? Result late membranous VSD? Early or late cyanosis? |
Early = L. to R shunt
SX's w/exertion Late = eisenmenger w/pulmonary hypertension: R to L shunt Late cyanosis |

What shunt is assoc. w/ transposition
of great vessels? what is needed to live? |
R. to left shunt
Need PDA or VSD |

most common congenital CYANOTIC
cardiac anomaly? |
tetralogy of fallot
|
|
what are the 4 parts to the tetrology?
|
1. PS
2. Overriding aorta 3. Interventricular septal defect 4. right ventricular hypertrophy |
|
what is the cause of tetrology of Fallot?
|
Aortico pulmonary septum fails to align properly
|
|
what is a condition where you have only one large vessel that leaves the heart?
What's needed to live? Is there cyanosis? |
Persistent truncus arteriosus?
Need a membranous ventricular septal defect There is cyanosis |
|
Cause of persistent truncus arteriosus?
|
AP septum fails to align properly
|
|
what hormone sustains the patency of the the ductus arteriosus? what condition?
|
Prostaglandin E
intrauterine or neonatal asphyxia |
|
What's used to promote the closure of a ductus arteriosus?
|
PGE inhibitors:
indomethocine, acetylcholine, histamine, and catecholamines |
|
When is a PDA common?
What kind of shunt is involved w/PDA after birth? |
premature infants and cases of maternal rubella infection
Left to Right shunt (before birth = R to Left) |
|
what vessel allows fetal blood to bypass the liver?
What allows the fetal blood flow to bypass the lungs? |
ductus venosus = liver bypass
Ductus arteriosus = lung bypass |
|
Where is the highest oxygenation in fetal circulation?
Lowest? |
highest = umbilical vein
lowest = ductus arteriosus |
|
What are the 2 main divisions of the thoracic cavity?
What's the landmark? |
superior mediastinum above the sternal angle
inferior mediastinum below the sternal angle |
|
The inferior mediastinum is divided into what 3 parts?
|
anterior
middle posterior mediastinum |
|
What is the 1 thing contained in the anterior mediastinum?
|
Heat and remnants of thymus
|
|
What are the 2 things contained in the middle mediastinum?
|
heart and great vessels
|
|
What are the vertebral levels at which the IVC, Esophagus and Aorta pass thru the diaphragm?
|
IVC = V8 (caval hiatus)
Esph = V10 (esophageal hiatus) Aorta = V12 (aortic hiatus) |
|
What artery supplies the SA and AV nodes?
|
R. coronary artery
