What are the indications for hospitalization in PID?
Indications for admission include pregnancy, surgical emergencies cannot be excluded, suspected pelvic/tubo-ovarian abscess, uncertain diagnosis, nausea/vomitin preclude oral therapy or failure to respond to oral agents in 24-48 hours.
How do most patients who have tetrology of fallot present in the newborn period?
Most do not have cyanosis, but have a harsh systolic murmur resulting from infundibular and pulmonary stenosis NOT the VSD.
Most patients who have TOF do not present with cyanosis in the newborn period, but rather come to medical attention because of a harsh systolic murmur. The murmur results from infundibular stenosis and pulmonary stenosis, not from the VSD. The second heart sound is single. Because the degree of pulmonary blood flow obstruction can vary among patients, the degree of systemic oxygen desaturation ranges from mild to severe. Children who have mild obstruction may appear "pink," and those who have severe pulmonary stenosis have significantly reduced pulmonary blood flow and an increase in right-to-left shunting across the VSD into the aorta, leading to more pronounced cyanosis. Furthermore, as pulmonary blood flow decreases with tight pulmonary stenosis, pulmonary venous return to the left atrium decreases, resulting in less highly saturated blood leaving the left ventricle and entering the aorta. Conversely, mild pulmonary stenosis is associated with more pulmonary blood flow, less right-to-left intracardiac shunting, and less systemic desaturation. In the mildest cases, there is left-to-right shunting across the VSD and near-normal or normal systemic saturation.

What percent of testicular function is preserved if surgery occurs within 6-12 hours of torsion?
60-65%
What typically triggers a tetralogy spell?
They frequently occur in the morning or at times of dehydration (fever, GE etc). They can quickly lead to serious morbidity and mortality.
Treatment of cyanotic spells centers on increasing pulmonary blood flow, which is accomplished by several means. The first step is to alter the ratio of relative resistance of pulmonary and systemic beds. Increasing the systemic vascular resistance relative to the pulmonary vascular resistance decreases the right-to-left shunt at the VSD and can be accomplished by placing the patient in a knee-to-chest position or by squatting in older children. Pharmacologic augmentation of the systemic vascular resistance can be achieved with intravenous phenylephrine. Therapy also includes the use of sedation with morphine, which suppresses the sensation of suffocation and can relieve the patient's fear. The use of high-flow oxygen, which dilates pulmonary vasculature, constricts systemic vasculature and increases PO2 of pulmonary venous return, and generous intravascular fluid administration to increase preload are important therapies for the patient experiencing a tetralogy spell.

What is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease?
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease, with an incidence of approximately 0.2 in 1,000 live births and accounting for 9% of all congenital heart disease.
The four components of TOF are right ventricular outflow/pulmonary stenosis, ventricular septal defect (VSD), overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy (Item C37). The primary lesion is underdevelopment of the pulmonary infundibulum, which has led some to refer to this disease as "monology of Fallot" because all aspects of the tetrad result from this lesion. The result of underdevelopment of the pulmonary infundibulum is deviation of the infundibular septum anteriorly and superiorly, bringing it into the right ventricular outflow tract. This leads to obstructed right ventricular outflow and the commonly seen underdevelopment of the pulmonary valve and pulmonary arteries caused by diminished blood flow through these structures. The underdeveloped pulmonary infundibulum also creates a VSD, which is almost universally large and of the malalignment type. The defect resulting from anterior malalignment of the infundibulum allows the aorta to "override" the ventricular septum. Finally, right ventricular hypertrophy results from exposure to systemic pressures (large VSD and pulmonary stenosis).
