Congenital Heart Defects
Craig T. Carter, D.O.
Assistant Professor – EM/Peds
University of Kentucky

A nurse approaches you -
“Doctor, Doctor” - a kid just checked in
with a history of Hypoplastic Left Heart
syndrome – What is that again??”
You reply …..

“ I need to go to the bathroom, as
soon as I get back, I will tell you all
about it....”
So you sit and think…..
And think some more….
Back to Basics-Fetal Circulation

Four shunts of blood flow : placenta,
ductus venosus, foramen ovale and
ductus arteriosus
Back to Basics-Fetal Circulation
Changes after birth:





Shift of blood flow for gas exchange,
from the placenta to the lungs.
Closure of ductus venosus :no placenta
increase in pulmonary blood flow
functional closure of foramen ovale
(increased LA pressure)
Closure of ductus arteriosus (^O2)
Newborn Cardiac Exam






Vital signs: RR, HR, BP
respiratory effort
color
palpate point of maximal impulse (PMI)
of heart
palpate pulses of all extremities
auscultate
Case 1: 2 day old infant



2 day old baby girl is being examined
for discharge physical.
Vitals: HR:120 RR:40 BP: r arm 75/40

edemetous dorsum of feet
Case 1: cardiac exam




Normal PMI, no thrill
No hepatosplenomegally
unable to palpate pulses in lower
extremities
BP’s all four extremities: both legs
systolic BP lower 40/30
Case 1: Auscultation





S2 splits normally
ejection click
systolic ejection murmur III/VI at the
URSB and LLSB
systolic murmur radiates to the back
early diastolic decrescendo murmur at
3LICS
Case 1:

What do you think is the congenital
defect?
Case 1:

What further evaluation do you need?
Coarctation of Aorta (COA)
Coarctation of Aorta (COA)


Incidence: 8% of all
congenital heart
defects
Turner’s syndrome:
30% have COA


Preductal: 40%
associated with
other cardiac
defects,symptomatic
early in life
Postductal: less
likely to have
symptoms early
COA



EKG: LVH (but may
be normal in 20%)
X-rays: heart size
may be normal or
slightly enlarged
Rib notching in older
children



Echo: can see
narrowing
Bicuspid aortic valve
Doppler:disturbed
flow
COA complications




COA can cause CHF, HTN (intracranial
bleeding,hypertensive encephalopathy)
Bicuspid aortic valve: stenosis or regurg
LV failure
infective endocarditis
Preductal COA in Newborn


80% of infants with preductal COA
develop CHF by 3 months of age!
Symptoms of CHF: poor feeding, poor
weight gain, dyspnea in first 2-6 weeks
of life.
Case 2: Two week old with
murmur




Two week old infant, who you saw as a
newborn with normal exam, now is
noted to have a heart murmur.
PMI LSB, not hyperdynamic
pulses equal all extremities
No HSM
Case 2: Cardiac exam

Grade III/VI holosystolic murmur at
LLSB
Case 2: What would you like to
do next?





EKG: LVH,LAH

Xray: look for cardiomegally and
increase in pulmonary vascularity
oxygenation
Echo: VSD
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD)




The most common form of congenital
heart disease: 20-25%
may be located in different anatomical
locations
may be associated with many other
cardiac defects ( in many cases
essential for survival)
may be small or large (can cause CHF)
Case 3: One day old infant




One day old infant with tachypnea and
cyanosis

Hypoplastic Left Heart
Hypoplastic Left Heart


Hypoplastic left heart syndrome refers to
underdevelopment of the left side of the
heart.
This syndrome may include:
– Small aorta: This is the major blood vessel
from the left ventricle to the body.
Hypoplastic Left Heart
May Include:
– Aortic valve atresia (absence): This valve normally
opens and closes to let blood flow from the left
ventricle to the aorta. When atresia is present, there
is no connection between the left ventricle and aorta,
and no forward blood flow.
–
– Mitral valve stenosis or atresia: This valve normally
opens and closes to let blood flow between the left
atrium and left ventricle. Stenosis causes little blood
flow; atresia causes no blood flow. Either atresia or
stenosis may be present.
