Ductus Arteriosus Dependent Congenital Heart Disease Amjad Kouatli MD. FAAP. FACC. Consultant Pediatric Cardiologist King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center Jeddah Anatomy of Ductus Arteriosus • Large channel found in mammalian fetuses. • Connects the main pulmonary artery to descending aorta. • Its media consists mainly of smooth muscles compared to elastic fibres in MPA, DAO. Physiology of Ductus Arteriosus • Carries 60% of combined vent. output • Diverts blood from high resistance pulmonary circulation to low resistance descending aorta and placental circulation. • PGE1 and PGI2 formed intramurally and in placenta maintain ductal patency in fetal life Post Natal Closure of PDA • Functional closure In 12 hr., contraction of medial smooth muscles due to PO2 & PGE1. • Anatomical closure In 3 wk., replacement of muscle fibres with fibrosis creating ligamentum arteriosus. • Silent without hemodynamic compromise to either pulmonary or systemic circulation Before Birth After Birth If ductal closure causes significant decrease in systemic circulation, the condition is called ductus dependent systemic blood flow If ductal closure causes significant decrease in pulmonary circulation, the condition is called ductus dependent pulmonary blood flow DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS DEPENDENT SYSTEMIC BLOOD FLOW Lesions characterized by the entire or part of the systemic blood flow depends solely on the patency of the ductus arteriosus. – Coarctation of Aorta (severe) – Interrupted Aortic Arch – Hypoplastic Left Heart Critical Coarctation Interrupted Aortic Arch IAA between LCC, LSC Hypoplastic Left Heart Clinical Presentation • Normal birth weight and initial examination • Symptoms start suddenly when the duct closes. • 40% are symptomatic first 2 days of life. • Tachypnea, dyspnea, grunting, flaring, ashen colour, and cyanosis. • Hyperactive precordium, tachycardia, hypotension, weak or absent femoral pulses, single S2, systolic heart murmur. Investigations • Laboratory Metabolic acidosis, hypoglycemia hyperkalemia. • ECG: RAD, RVH • Chest X ray: mild cardiomegaly mild to severe increased pulmonary vascular markings. Echocardiogram Aortic Atresia Hypoplastic LV Echocardiogram Interrupted Aortic Arch Critical Coarctation DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS DEPENDENT PULMONARY BLOOD FLOW • Hypoxic lesions characterized by the pulmonary blood flow depends solely on the patency of the ductus arteriosus. – Pulmonary atresia – Severe pulmonary stenosis – TOF with severe pulmonary stenosis TOF Critical PS Pulmonary Atresia Clinical Presentation • Normal birth weight and initial examination • Symptoms start suddenly when the duct closes. • Progressive cyanosis, tachypnea. • Hyperactive precordium, tachycardia, single S2, TR systolic murmur, normal pulses. Investigations • Laboratory hypoxemia not responding to O2 hypocarbia (hyperventilation). • ECG: LAD, LVH . • Chest X ray; mild to severe cardiomegaly, decrease in pulmonary vascular markings. Echocardiogram Critical Pulmonary Stenosis Pulmonary Atresia Intact ventricular septum Hypoplastic RV Treatment Prostaglandin E1 • IV via a large vein, 0.05- 0.1 ug/kg/min • Side effects: apnea 10%, hypotension, inhibition of platelets aggregation, fever, diarrhea, flushing, bradycardia, seizures, arrhythmia. • Therapeutic response is judged – Femoral pulses restoration, pH in DDSBF – Resolved cyanosis in DDPBF Treatment cont. • Correction of metabolic acidosis with sodium bicarbonate, acidosis decreases actin and myosin coupling. • Correction of hypoglycemia and hypothermia. • Surgical or transcatheter intervention: Palliation: Complete correction: HLHS Norwood Hybrid PA-IVS BT Shunt PDA Stent Treatment cont. Cardiac Catheterization For balloon valvuloplasty in critical PS RV injection, AP view Critical PS, Severe TR RV hypertrophy RV injection, lateral view PV annulus 4.4 mm Effective opening < 1 mm 0.014 wire crossed Pulmonary valve Balloon inflated Waist is visible Balloon inflated Waist disappeared Pre Balloon dilatation Decreased pulmonary blood flow RA dilatation After Balloon dilatation More blood to lungs Decreased RA size Treatment cont. Oxygenation, Ventilation • Oxygen and hyperventilation are excellent pulmonary vasodilator leading to decrease pulmonary vascular resistance. • Hypo oxygenate and hypo ventilate in ductus dependent systemic blood flow. • Oxygenate and ventilate in ductus dependent pulmonary blood flow. Effect of oxygen on pulmonary and systemic circulation. Oxygen decreases PVR 5 2.5 2 5 2.5 10 2.5 5 100% 80 % 4 10 4 92 % 5 8 100% 100% 5 2 60% 60% PVR = SVR PVR SVR 2 60% Summary • Ductus dependent congenital heart disease should be considered in every newborn – presenting with shock or cyanosis – physical examination shows hyperactive precordium, heart murmur, or weak pulses • Prognosis improves dramatically with early diagnosis, early infusion of Prostaglandin and early understanding of the disease physiology
