Q

What does the murmur usually come from with ASD?

Q

What will show dilated RV in atrial septal defect?

A

echocardiogram

23
Q

When may ASD spontaneously close?

A

1st 4 years of life if <8mm

24
Q

When will ASD need intervention?

A

if > 8 mm

25
Q

What is the newest trent for ASD?

A

non-surgical coil placed to occlude (small, round mesh device) and native tissue will eventually cover this

26
Q

What is the surgical patch called for ASD?

A

Dacron Patch

27
Q

What is needed long term with ASD?

A

follow up and monitoring - may see CHF or PHT later in life with atrial arrhythmias

28
Q

What is the most common defect between ventricles?

A

Ventricular septal defect (VSD)

29
Q

What kind of shunt is there with Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD)?

A

left to right shunt

30
Q

What does VSD do to pulmonary blood flow?

A

causes pulmonary resistance and increase pulmonary blood flow

31
Q

What is the size of VSD?

A

pin-hole size to complete septum

32
Q

When do many VSD spontaneously close?

A

within 1st year of life with mild to moderate defects

33
Q

In VSD, with the higher pressure in LV and systemic arterial circulation, what does it create?

A

more resistance than the pulmonary circulation

34
Q

What does more resistance in the pulmonary circulation create in VSD?

A

causes blood flow through the defect in the pulmonary artery

35
Q

What may an increased blood volume to the lungs result in with VSD?

A

increase pulmonary vascular resistance

36
Q

What does increased pressure in the RV with VSD result in?

A

left to right shunt which can lead to muscle hypertrophy

37
Q

When VSD is combined with pulmonary HTN,
right to left shunt
and an enlarged RV, what is it called?

A

Eisenmenger’s complex

38
Q

What are the symptoms of VSD?

A

Tachypnea
dyspnea
poor feeding
Loud holosystolic murmur

39
Q

When is the murmur louder with VSD?

A

when the defect is smaller - the smaller the defect, the louder the murmur is

40
Q

What medications are patient’s with VSD put on?

A

Digoxin and Diuretics

41
Q

What needs to be watched with diuretics?

A

K+ levels unless its a K+ sparing diuretic

42
Q

What does a decrease K+ level do to digoxin?

A

increases digoxin levels

43
Q

How are infants with VSD fed?

A

through gastric feedings with high calorie formula

44
Q

Is Cyanosis usually present with VSD?

A

no

45
Q

If the defect is large in VSD, what does it cause?

A

CHF

46
Q

What diagnoses VSD?

A

echocardiogram

47
Q

What grade murmur is usually heard with VSD?

A

grade 3-4

48
Q

Will VSD usually close on its own?

A

yes

49
Q

When will a patch to put on a VSD?

A

3-12 monts if it doesn’t close on it own

50
Q

Why is a patch put on a VDS?

A

to prevent pulmonary vascular disease

51
Q

Why is a prophylaxis given before any procedure for VSD and ASD?

A

for infective endocarditis** and aortic valve leakage

52
Q

What is more common to treat VSD now?

A

Non-surgical treatment during cardiac catheterazation

53
Q

What may be put on a VSD if difficult for palliative treatment?

A

pulmonary artery banding

54
Q

Why would a pulmonary artery banding be put on a VSD?

A

to decrease pulmonary blood flow
