Quiz 4 Flashcards
most common congenital heart defect (CHD)
Bicuspid aortic valve
In the first week of life, __________ of the great arteries most frequent cause of cardiac cyanosis
D-transposition
If there is an abnormal arrangement: suggests high likelihood of complex __ disease*
cv
Fetal circuation (3):
- RV delivers blood to both pulmonary and systemic circulation (DA)
- LV delivers blood to the systemic and placental circulation
- Allows for fetal survival in utero despite complex lesions
02 blood from placenta (2):
- Po2: 32-35 mm Hg
- 02 sat 80%
Fetal Circulation: Venous blood goes two ways
- Umbilical venous blood > foramen ovale > LA
2. Abdominal IVC blood joins the SVC drainage (P02=12-14, sat =40%)
In fetal circulation - Due to high _____, >90% of blood from the RV passes from the PA via the DA in to the descending aorta
PVR
Fetal Circulation: decending aorta sats
- P02:20-22
- sat 55%
Lower p50 of fetal hemoglobin facilitates
02 uptake in the _______.
placenta
___ has a higher output than the ___ in fetal circulation. ____ RV:LV output
RV
LV
1.3:1
Transitional Circulation (4)
- increase in SVR
- rapid drop in systemic venous return to the IVC due to umbilical venous flow is removed
- RA pressure decreases
- LA pressure increases due to increase in PBF and pulm venous return
CO increases ______ after birth
30-80%
FO closes functionally at birth but increases ___ can cause the flap to reopen
RAP
R > L shunt can happen from (7): P-CLASHH
- pain
- crying
- lung disease
- acidosis
- sepsis
- hypoxia
- hypercarbia
Ductus Arteriosus functional closure, anatomic closure?
72 hours of life
1-3 months
PDA s/s (5):
- hyperactive precordium
- hepatomegaly
- bounding pulses with a wide pulse pressure
- tachypnea
- tachycardia
Blood volume: premie, < 3 months, 3-12 months, >12 months:
Premature: 100-120ml/kg
<3 months: 90
3-12 months: 80
>12 months: 70
Newborn: In order to increase CO, must increase ____
HR
Increase in preload causes little or no change in cardiac output
Cardiac physiology at birth: innervation (2)
- Parasympathetic innervation is fully functional at birth
- Sympathetic innervation: increases HR and contractility is incompletely developed (can pretreat with atropine)
What does not change in a newborn?
A: stroke volume
B: slower heart rate
C: higher blood pressure
D: cardiac output
A: stroke volume
