Q

what is the best way to pharmacologically increase SVR with TOF to decrease R–>L shunt

A

phenylephrine

22
Q

with TOF amount of shunt is dependent on ________________

A

degree of RVOT obstruction

23
Q

which CHD will have a “boot like” appearance on CXR

A

TOF

24
Q

physical exam TOF

A
  1. cyanosis 2. clubbing 3. systolic ejection murmur 4. EKG = r-axis deviation d/t RVH
25
Q

the shorter and softer the murmur of pt with TOF , the _______________ severe the RVOT obstruction

A

more

26
Q

s/sx of unrepaired TOF in an adult

A
  1. dyspnea 2. limited exercise tolerance 3. complications of chronic hypoxia (erythrocytosis, hyperviscosity, stroke, endocarditis, thromboemboli)
27
Q

T/F: with TOF, if unrepaired die in childhood

A

TRUE

28
Q

goal of surgical intervention with TOF

A
  1. closure of VSD 2. relief of RVOT obstruction accomplished via resection of hypertrophied muscle bundle & transannular patch placement
29
Q

anesthesia considerations with TOF

A
  1. maintain HR and contractility 2. increase preload 3. increase SVR 4. decrease PVR 5. avoid changes to PVR:SVR (increase particularly) 6. avoid morphine, meperidine, and atracurium d/t histamine release –> decrease SVR 7. tx hypercyanosis promptly 8. avoid RV depression w/ fixed RVOT obstruction
30
Q

tx of “tet spell” perioperatively

A
  1. FiO2 100% 2. administer fluids/albumin to increase intravascular volume 3. increase SVR w/ phenylephrine 4. avoid: inotropes & excess airway pressure 5. place pt in knee to chest position 6. deep anesthesia to decrease obstruction from RVOT goals: use vent to decrease PVR and also maintain-increase SVR
31
Q

what is the current recommendation for TOF repiar

A

complete surgical repair at very young age

32
Q

tx options for TOF

A
  1. complete surgical repair at very young age (current rec) 2. palliative shunt or balloon valvuoplasty in severely ill infants or when complete reapir unsuitable (will increase PBF and enlarge pulmonary artery until surgical repiar can be completed)
33
Q

what are the three types of palliative shunts that are not done very often anymore, but used to be performed for TOF with pulmonary atresia

A
  1. waterson 2. potts 3. blalock taussing shunt
34
Q

TOF with pulmonary atresia palliative shunt where there is side-to-side anastamosis of the ascending aorta and the right pulmonary artery

A

waterson

35
Q

palliative shunt for TOF with pulmonary atresia, where there is side-to-side anastamosis of descending Ao to L pulmonary artery

A

potts

36
Q

_________________ is a palliative shunt for TOF with pulmonary atresia where the left subclavian artery is end-to-side anastamosed with the L. pulmonary artery; there is also a new form called the _______________ where a dacron graft is used to connect the right subclavian artery to the right pulmonary artery

A

blalock-taussing shunt; modified blalock taussing shunt

37
Q

if a palliative shunt for TOF w/ pulmonary atresia is needing to be performed but the coronaries cross over the RVOT or there is long segement atresia, what should be done

A

RV - PA conduit is placed

38
Q

___________________ is a R –> L shunt, where the Ao arises from the RV and the PA arises from the LV –> complete separation of pulmonary and systemic circulation

A

transposition of great arteries

39
Q

to survive transposition of great arteries, there must be some connection btwn circuits, what are the most common connections?

A
  1. PDA or PFO (75%) = most critical 2. ASD and/or VSD (25%)
40
Q

if a patient with transposition of the great arteries has a connection between circuits via ASD or VSD you would expect _____________ cyanosis and _______________ shunt –> _________________

A

less; more; vol overload and LV failure

41
Q

immediate management for pt with transposition of great arteries

A
  1. prostaglandin infusion to maintain PDA 2. creation of ASD 3. digoxin/diuretics to tx CHF 4. high FiO2 to decrease PBF and PVR
42
Q

s/sx of transposition (include EKG/CXR finding)

A
  1. cyanosis 2. tachypnea 3. if VSD present = holosystolic murmur 4. EKG = R-axis deviation 5. CXR = cardiomegaly, increased pulmonary vasculature, and Egg shaped heart
43
Q

why is the prognosis so poor for transposition of great arteries if unrepaired

A
  1. progressive hypoxemia and acidosis 2. 90% mortality by 6 months
44
Q

what are the different surgical procedures for transposition of the great arteries?

A
  1. mustard senning procedure (aka baffle and ATRIAL switch) 2. Arterial switch
45
Q

describe the mustard/senning procedure (atrial switch, baffle procedure) for transposition of great arteries

A
  1. atrial septum is excised to allow systemic venous blood to cross mitral into LV and pulmonary venous blood to cross tricuspid into RV 2. so the RV remains the systemic ventricle and LV remains the pulmonic
46
Q

what are the disadvantages with the mustard senning procedure (baffle/atrial switch) for transposition

A

RV remains the systemic ventricle (which it is not equipt to do) –> RV failure, atrial arrhythmias, and/or sudden death

47
Q

describe the atrial switch procedure for transposition of the great arteries

A
  1. PA and Ao are transected above the SL valves 2. Ao connected to neoaortic valve arising from LV 3. PA connected to neopulmonic valve arising from RV 4. coronaries are relocated to the neoaorta
48
Q

what are the advantages of the atrial switch procedure for transposition of the great arteries

A
  1. low periop mortality 2. excellent long term outcomes.
49
Q

__________________ is an abnormal tricuspid valve that sits low –> very large Right atrium and small right ventricle

A

ebsteins anomaly

50
Q

80% of pts with ebsteins anomaly have a _________ or __________ –> R–> L shunt

A

ASD; PFO
