- An atrial septal defect (ASD) is an opening in the wall separating the left and right atria of the heart that was not present at birth.
- The most common type is an ostium secundum defect, which accounts for 70-75% of ASDs.
- Small ASDs may close on their own, but larger defects require closure to prevent long term complications like heart failure and pulmonary hypertension.
- Echocardiography is the primary diagnostic test used to identify the size, location and type of ASD.
The document discusses atrial septal defects (ASDs), including indications for closure, procedural details, and echocardiographic assessment. Key points include:
- ASD closure is recommended in the presence of right-sided heart volume overload or symptoms. It prevents further deterioration and helps normalize heart size.
- Indications for closure include hemodynamically significant ASD, paradoxical embolism risk, and transient cyanosis. Contraindications include irreversible pulmonary hypertension.
- Echocardiography is used to assess defect size, rims, and shunt severity. Deficient rims, especially aortic and superior vena cava, increase erosion risk post-closure.

This document discusses congenital heart disease in adults. It notes that 1 million adults in the US have congenital heart disease, with 20,000 more reaching adulthood each year due to increased survival of children with CHD. Common adult presentations of CHD include effort dyspnea, atrial fibrillation, and right heart failure. The document reviews the pathophysiology, clinical features, diagnostic evaluation, and management of various CHD lesions that may present in adulthood, such as atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, tetralogy of Fallot, Ebstein's anomaly, and coarctation of the aorta. Surgical and percutaneous interventions are discussed
- The patient is a 36-year-old male who presented with palpitations and breathlessness on exertion. Echocardiogram revealed an atrial septal defect (ASD) of the sinus venosus type with anomalous pulmonary venous drainage and moderate pulmonary hypertension.
- Sinus venosus ASDs account for 10% of ASDs and involve a defect between the superior vena cava and right atrium, often associated with anomalous pulmonary vein drainage.
- Surgical repair is the treatment of choice, involving use of a patch to redirect pulmonary vein flow to the left atrium while closing the interatrial communication.
This document provides information on various cyanotic heart lesions including Tetralogy of Fallot, Transposition of the Great Arteries, Tricuspid Atresia, Ebstein's Anomaly and Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return. It describes the anatomy, clinical features, diagnosis and management of these conditions. Key cyanotic heart lesions are characterized by mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood resulting in central cyanosis.
This document provides a historical overview of the development of congenital heart disease (CHD) diagnosis and treatment. It discusses early discoveries and innovations such as the first closure of a stab wound in the right ventricle in 1896. It then outlines major advances including cardiac catheterization in 1929, the development of pediatric cardiology in the 1940s, and the first successful open-heart surgery using hypothermia and cross-circulation in 1954. The document concludes with a discussion of modern CHD management and new frontiers in causation, gene-based treatments, and imaging.
The document discusses various types of congenital heart defects including cyanotic and acyanotic defects, summarizing key features such as symptoms, physical exam findings, treatments, and anesthetic considerations for septal defects, atrial septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, interrupted aortic arch, tetralogy of Fallot, and single ventricle physiology. It provides an overview of important congenital heart conditions from an anesthesiology perspective.
This document provides information on dextro-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA), including that it accounts for 5-7% of congenital heart defects and has a 3:1 male to female ratio. Half of D-TGA cases have no other associated defects besides a PFO or PDA. The document discusses the anatomy of D-TGA, associated defects like VSD that can occur, natural history, clinical features, investigations including echocardiography views, management approaches both medically and surgically, and complications. Key surgical procedures mentioned are arterial switch operation, Rastelli procedure, and atrial level switch.
This document discusses various acyanotic congenital heart diseases. It begins by classifying congenital heart disease into cyanotic and acyanotic categories. It then further divides acyanotic congenital heart disease into those with a left-to-right shunt or increased pulmonary blood flow, such as atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and those without a shunt such as coarctation of the aorta. The document then goes on to describe the pathophysiology, clinical features, investigations and management of ASD, VSD, and PDA in more detail. It also briefly discusses Eisenmenger syndrome.
This document discusses anesthesia considerations for children with congenital heart disease (CHD). It begins by classifying common CHD types as left-to-right shunts which increase pulmonary blood flow or right-to-left shunts which decrease it. The goal of anesthesia management is then to manipulate systemic and pulmonary vascular resistances to optimize blood flow based on the individual defect. Thorough preoperative evaluation and understanding of the child's specific anatomy and hemodynamics are essential to tailoring the anesthetic plan.
CYANOTIC CONGENITAL HEART DISEASES WITH DECREASED BLOOD FLOWbadrik19
This document discusses cyanosis and its causes in neonates. It begins by defining cyanosis as a bluish tinge of the skin and mucous membranes, detectable when hemoglobin is reduced by more than 5g% or oxygen saturation is below 85%. It then lists various pulmonary, cardiac, central nervous system, metabolic, hematologic, and infectious conditions that can cause cyanosis in newborns. The majority of the document focuses on describing tetralogy of Fallot, including its characteristic features, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management. It provides details on the anatomy, causes, hypoxic spells, and treatment approaches for tetralogy of Fallot.
This document discusses atrial septal defects (ASDs), which are holes between the left and right atria of the heart that allow blood to pass from the left to the right side. The main types of ASDs are secundum, primum, and sinus venosus defects. If left unrepaired, an ASD can cause increased blood flow to the lungs, enlargement of the right atrium, and inadequate blood flow to the body. Surgical closure or device closure are treatment options to close the defect and restore normal blood flow patterns.
Some babies with tricuspid atresia have other conditions, such as pulmonary stenosis or transposition of the great arteries, that also affect blood flow through their heart. These conditions require treatment, too.
The document discusses various acyanotic heart diseases including atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), coarctation of aorta, pulmonary stenosis, and aortic stenosis. It provides details on the pathophysiology, clinical features, investigations, and management of each condition. Key points include that ASD is the most common congenital heart disease, VSD has a pansystolic murmur at the lower left sternal edge, PDA causes a continuous murmur and loud P2 with pulmonary hypertension, coarctation causes hypertension and rib notching on CXR, and large defects can lead to pulmonary hypertension and
1. Acyanotic heart defects are congenital heart disorders involving left to right shunting of blood without cyanosis. Common defects include atrial septal defects (ASD) and ventricular septal defects (VSD).
2. ASDs involve an abnormal opening between the left and right atria, increasing pulmonary blood flow. VSDs involve an opening between the left and right ventricles, also increasing pulmonary flow.
3. Clinical manifestations vary depending on defect size but may include fatigue, palpitations, infections. Diagnosis involves echocardiogram, EKG, chest x-ray. Surgical repair is often recommended.
The document describes various congenital heart diseases classified into 3 groups: left to right shunts, right to left shunts, and obstructive lesions. Specific conditions are described in detail, including tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of the great arteries, truncus arteriosus, tricuspid atresia, and total anomalous pulmonary venous return. For each condition, typical presentations, physical exam findings, investigations, management, and surgical procedures are summarized.
The document discusses the boot-shaped heart sign seen on frontal chest radiographs that is indicative of Tetralogy of Fallot, a common congenital heart defect. Tetralogy of Fallot involves four abnormalities - pulmonary stenosis, ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy. It can cause cyanosis and its severity depends on the degree of pulmonary stenosis. Treatment involves primary repair of the defects or a palliative shunt, with best outcomes seen when repaired by age 5.
This document provides guidelines for the treatment of tetralogy of Fallot, which is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. Key points include:
- Surgical correction involves enlarging the right ventricular outflow tract and closing the ventricular septal defect. Palliative procedures like shunts or stents may be used for severe cases.
- Long term follow up is important to monitor for complications like arrhythmias and pulmonary valve insufficiency.
- Untreated tetralogy of Fallot has high mortality. Prenatal diagnosis allows delivery at a center equipped for pediatric cardiology/surgery.
Atrial septal defect (ASD) is an abnormal opening in the wall separating the left and right atria of the heart. There are several types of ASDs including secundum, ostium primum, sinus venosus, and coronary sinus defects. ASDs are usually diagnosed through echocardiography which can determine the size and location of the defect. Small, asymptomatic ASDs may not require treatment, but larger defects with evidence of right heart strain often warrant closure either through open heart surgery or a nonsurgical approach using an implantable device delivered through catheters. Both methods effectively close the defect to prevent long-term complications like heart failure and pulmonary hypertension.
This document discusses cyanotic congenital heart disease, which refers to congenital heart defects that result in low pulmonary blood flow and cyanosis. It describes conditions like tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia, tricuspid atresia, and transposition of the great arteries. For each condition, it discusses the clinical features, pathophysiology, diagnostic assessment including chest x-ray findings, and treatment approaches.
Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PAIVS) is a congenital heart defect where the pulmonary valve is blocked, preventing blood flow from the right ventricle to the lungs. It occurs in 1-3% of congenital heart diseases. Surgical interventions for PAIVS have improved, with 5-year survival rates now around 80%. Treatment depends on factors like the size of the tricuspid valve and whether the coronary arteries depend on blood flow from the right ventricle. Options include biventricular repair, univentricular repair, or transplantation.

Options include biventricular repair, univentricular repair, or transplantation.
Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) is a rare congenital heart defect where the pulmonary valve is blocked, preventing blood flow to the lungs. It is characterized by an underdeveloped right ventricle and connections between the right ventricle and coronary arteries. Newborns present with cyanosis and rely on a patent ductus arteriosus for pulmonary blood flow. Without intervention, most infants will die within the first few months of life. Treatment involves surgical procedures like the Blalock-Taussig shunt, bidirectional Glenn procedure, and Fontan operation to redirect blood flow to the lungs without using the right ventricle.
This document discusses total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC), including:
- Sites of drainage for TAPVC including supracardiac, cardiac, and infracardiac.
- Obstruction can occur at the drainage sites, leading to pulmonary venous obstruction and pulmonary hypertension.
- Clinical features depend on presence and size of ASD and degree of obstruction. Cyanosis and heart failure are common.
- Diagnosis is made by echocardiogram, CT, and cardiac catheterization.
- Natural history is poor without treatment, with death in first year common for those with obstruction.
- Treatment involves surgical repair to redirect pulmonary veins to left atrium while addressing any obstructions.
The pulmonary artery catheter, also known as the Swan-Ganz catheter, was introduced in 1972 and allows direct measurement of pressures and calculations of cardiac output and other hemodynamic parameters. It has a balloon tip that is inflated in the pulmonary artery to measure pressures. The catheter can be used to diagnose various shock states, valvular diseases, and pulmonary embolism. Placement involves inserting the catheter into the internal jugular or femoral vein and advancing it into the right atrium, ventricle, and pulmonary artery while monitoring waveforms. Measurements include cardiac output, stroke volume, filling pressures, and mixed venous oxygen saturation. Trends over time are generally more useful than single measurements.
Atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) are four common types of congenital heart disease. ASD is a hole in the atrial septum that allows blood to flow from the left to the right atrium. VSD is a hole in the ventricular septum that allows blood to flow between the ventricles. PDA is a persistent opening between the aorta and pulmonary artery that normally closes after birth. TOF involves four abnormalities that reduce pulmonary blood flow.
1) Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is a rare cardiac anomaly where the connections of the great arteries and ventricles are discordant. The right ventricle functions as the systemic ventricle and the tricuspid valve is the systemic atrioventricular valve.
2) The right ventricle is not well-suited to function as the systemic ventricle long-term, often leading to ventricular dysfunction, tricuspid regurgitation, and heart failure. Management options include physiologic repair, anatomic repair such as the double switch operation, or a Fontan pathway.
3) The ideal surgical approach remains debated and depends on the individual
Adult Congenital Heart Disease can affect over 1 million adults in the US. Common conditions include Atrial Septal Defects, Ventricular Septal Defects, Patent Ductus Arteriosus, Bicuspid Aortic Valve, Coarctation of the Aorta, Tetralogy of Fallot, and Transposition of the Great Arteries. Clinical presentation and treatment depends on the specific condition and degree of severity. Long term monitoring is important for complications. Pregnancy can also pose additional risks for some congenital heart conditions.

For the scenario presented, the assistant would start prostaglandin E1 treatment and call cardiology to perform an echocardiogram to determine the specific heart defect.
This document summarizes cyanotic congenital heart disease. It describes:
1) The classification of congenital heart diseases into left to right shunts, right to left shunts, and obstructive lesions.
2) The causes of cyanosis including right to left shunting defects like tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of the great arteries, truncus arteriosus, and total anomalous pulmonary venous return.
3) The clinical presentation, evaluation, and management of cyanotic spells in tetralogy of Fallot patients and the surgical repairs for various cyanotic congenital heart defects.
Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is a heart defect where both the aorta and pulmonary artery arise completely or primarily from the right ventricle. It can cause varying degrees of cyanosis and congestive heart failure depending on pulmonary pressures and associated defects. Echocardiography is important for assessing the relationship of the great vessels to the ventricles, presence of a ventricular septal defect, and other structural issues to determine appropriate surgical repair. Management may involve biventricular repair in the neonatal period or staged palliation depending on the specific anatomy and physiology in each case.
This document discusses acyanotic congenital heart disease, which includes conditions with left-to-right shunts such as atrial septal defects (ASD), ventricular septal defects (VSD), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). It provides details on the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, investigations, and treatment options for each condition. ASDs can cause volume overloading of the right heart and pulmonary hypertension if large. VSDs similarly cause left ventricular volume overloading. PDAs shunt blood from the aorta to the pulmonary artery. All conditions are typically addressed through either surgical or catheter-based closure.
Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital heart defect characterized by four abnormalities: pulmonary stenosis, ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy. It was first described in detail by Etienne-Louis Arthur Fallot in 1888. Treatment options include medical management of symptoms as well as surgical repair to improve pulmonary blood flow and correct the defects. The document provides extensive details on the anatomical features, clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and surgical/interventional management of Tetralogy of Fallot.
This document discusses Ebstein's anomaly, a rare congenital heart disease characterized by maldevelopment of the tricuspid valve. It provides details on:
1) The characteristic anatomical features including apical displacement of the tricuspid valve leaflets.
2) The clinical presentations which range from cyanosis and heart failure in neonates to minimal symptoms in adults.
3) The diagnostic tools used including echocardiogram, which is key for diagnosis.
4) The various surgical and palliative options for treatment depending on the severity of symptoms and age of presentation.

The document provides information on electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) basics including normal intervals, wave components, lead placements, axis determination, and common arrhythmias. It explains that the ECG provides information on heart rate, rhythm, and tissue health. Examples of various normal and abnormal rhythms are presented.
Chronic stress can lead to depression through several pathways in the body and brain. The stress response involves the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and sympathetic nervous system, which elevate cortisol and catecholamine levels. Over time, prolonged activation of these systems due to stress can result in allostatic load, damaging the body and brain through effects on inflammatory and immune responses. This dysregulation of stress mediators is associated with increased risk of depression as well as medical conditions like heart disease and metabolic syndrome. Meditation may help reduce stress's harmful impacts through effects on the brain's opioid and stress response systems.
The document discusses atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and coronary artery disease. It provides illustrations and descriptions of the heart anatomy, including the coronary arteries and heart muscle. Risk factors for coronary artery disease and heart attack are outlined, along with descriptions of atherosclerosis, angina, heart attack, and diagnostic tests like cardiac catheterization. Invasive treatments for coronary artery disease like percutaneous coronary intervention are also mentioned.
The document discusses the health complications of obesity and overweight. It states that obesity is a major public health problem in the US, with over 300,000 deaths per year associated with overweight and obesity. The economic costs of obesity in the US exceeded $115 billion in 2000. Obesity increases the risk of numerous health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, and early death. Losing weight can significantly improve health outcomes for people who are overweight.
This document discusses cardiac murmurs and auscultation of heart valves. It begins by defining cardiac murmurs as audible turbulent sound waves that can indicate underlying valvular pathology.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
