saturation, cardiac function • Sedation is necessary • Extremity kept straight 4-6 hours after procedure Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-9 Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) • Signs and symptoms – Depend on location and type of heart defect – Child may be small for age, condition may be classified as a physiologic failure to thrive – Exercise intolerance noticed anywhere from infancy to toddler age – Clubbing of the fingers – Frequent respiratory infections because of pulmonary vascular congestion – Squatting position – Polycythemia: Body compensates for hypoxemia by

Flow • Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) – Passageway connecting pulmonary artery to aorta, avoiding fetal lungs – Failure to close causes oxygenated blood to recycle through the lungs • Overburdens pulmonary circulation • Makes heart work harder • One of the most common cardiac anomalies – Symptoms • Machine-like murmur, dyspnea, bounding pulses on exertion, failure to thrive, frequent respiratory infections – Treatment • Indomethacin/ibuprofen in premature infants • Amplatzer PDA device • Surgical repair Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-13 Defects with Increased Pulmonary Blood Flow • Atrial septal defect (ASD) – Abnormal opening between right and left atria – Common congenital heart anomaly – Symptoms • Generally asymptomatic • Cyanosis if blood flow is reversed by heart failure • Large openings may cause failure to thrive – Treatment • Open heart surgery • Percutaneous occluding devices Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-14 Defects with Increased Pulmonary Blood Flow • Ventricular septal defect (VSD) – Opening between right and left ventricles – 75% of small VSDs close spontaneously by age 10 – Symptoms • Loud, harsh murmur • Systolic tremor • Moderate/large defects may present CHF symptoms – Treatment • Percutaneous transcatheter closure • Occluder devices Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-15 Obstructive Defect • Coarctation (tightening) of the aorta – Symptoms • • • • Increased pressure proximal to the defect Decreased pressure distal to the defect High blood pressure CHF symptoms – Treatment • Balloon angioplasty • Surgical intervention; anastomosis • Risk of developing subacute bacterial endocarditis Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-16 Defect with Decreased Pulmonary Blood Flow • Tetralogy of Fallot – The most common cyanotic heart defect – Four defects • • • • Stenosis (narrowing of pulmonary artery) Hypertrophy of the right ventricle Dextroposition of the aorta VSD – Symptoms • Cyanosis/hypoxemia episodes with hyperpnea, irritability • Hypoxia – Treatment • Open heart surgery Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-17 Mixed Defect • Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) – Pulmonary artery leaves left ventricle – Aorta leaves the right ventricle – Other defects (septal defects, PDA) must be present to sustain life – Survival impossible without surgery – Symptoms • CHF symptoms • Any murmur present is caused by other defects, not TGA – Treatment • Prostaglandin E1 • Balloon atrial septostomy • Corrective surgery – Performed within the first 2 weeks of life Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc. 12-18 Mixed Defect • Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) – Left side of the heart is underdeveloped – Hypoplasia of aorta, left ventricle, mitral valve – Systemic circulation provided by right side of the heart – Ductus arteriosus and foramen ovale must remain patent to survive with HLHS – Treatment • PGE1 is administered to maintain a PDA • Surgery in several stages – Norwood, Glenn, Fontan Copyright © 2012 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier, Inc.
