Integrating concepts
• Chronic disease • Genetic condition • Hospital associated infection
Cardiovascular disease
• Congenital• Defects with increased
pulmonary blood flow• Obstructive defects• Defects with decreased
blood flow• Mixed defects
• Acquired – Rheumatic fever– Kawasaki disease
Defects with increased pulmonary blood flow
1. Atrial septal defect 2. Atrioventricular canal
defect3. Patent ductus arteriosus4. Ventricular septal defect
Defects with decreased pulmonary blood flow
1. Tetralogy of Fallot2. Tricuspid atresia
Obstructive defects
1. Aortic stenosis2. Coarctation of the aorta3. Pulmonary stenosis
Mixed defects
1. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
2. Transportation of the great arteries
3. Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection
4. Truncus arteriosus
Defects with increased pulmonary blood flow (4)
• 1. Atrial septal defect• Abnormal opening between atria that causes an
increased flow of oxygenated blood into the right side of the heart (allows blood to flow from the high pressure left side of the heart to the low pressure right side of the heart)
• Three types according to location of opening• Management– May be closed during cardiac catherization– Open repair with cardiopulmonary bypass- before
school age
Defects with increased pulmonary blood flow (4)
• 2. Atrioventricular canal defects• Incomplete fusion of the endocardial cushions• Most common- Down syndrome• Cyanosis increases with crying• Management– Pulmonary banding infants severe symptoms
(palliative)– Complete repair via cardiopulmonary bypass
Defects with increased pulmonary blood flow (4)
3. patent ductus arteriosus• Failure of fetal ductus arteriosus (artery
connecting the aorta and the pulmonary artery) to close within the first weeks fo life.
• Management – Indomethacin (Indocin), a prostaglandin inhibitor,
administered to close a patent ductus in premature infants and some newborns.
– Closed during cardiac catherization, or may requires surgery
Defects with increased pulmonary blood flow (4)
4. ventricular septal defect (VSD)o Abnormal opening between the right and left
ventricleso Many VSDs (small or moderate) close
spontaneously first years of lifeo Management
o Closed during cardiac catherizationo Open repair cardiopulmonary bypass
Defects with decreased pulmonary blood flow (2)
1. Tetralogy of FallotIncludes four defects: 1. VSD, 2. pulmonary
stenosis, 3. overriding aorta, 4. right ventricular hypertrophy
If PVR is higher than systemic resistance , shunt from right to left, if SVR is higher than PVR, the shunt is from left to right.
Acute episodes of cyanosis and hypoxia (hypercyanotic spells, called blue spells or tet spells-occurs during crying, feeding, or defecating
Continue-Tetralogy of Fallot• Management– Surgical management: palliative shunt• Increases pulmonary blood flow & increase oxygen
saturation in infants who cannot undergo primary surgery• Provides blood flow to the pulmonary arteries from the
left or right subclavian arteries
– Surgical management : complete repair• Performed first year of life
– Requires median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass
Defects with decreased pulmonary blood flow (2)
2. Tricuspid atresiao Failure of the tricuspid valve to developo No communication exist between the right
atrium and right ventricleo Blood flows through an ASD or a patent
foramen ovale to left side of the heart and through a VSD to the right ventricle and out to the lungs
o Associated with pulmonic stenosis and transposition of the great vessels
Continue:2. tricuspid atresia
• Results in complete mixing of unoxygenated and oxygenated blood in the left side of the heart
• Cyanosis, tachycardia, and dyspnea are seen in the newborn
• Management– If ASD is small, closed during cardiac catherization,
otherwise surgery
Obstructive defects (3)
• 1. aortic stenosis

• 5. (404). A nurse provided home care instructions to the mother of a child who is being discharged after cardiac surgery. Which statement made by the mother indicates a need for further instructions?
A.“A balance of rest and exercise is important.”B.“I can apply lotion or powder to the incision if it
itchy.”C. “Activities in which my child could fall need to be
avoided for 2 to 4 weeks.”D.“Large crowds of people need to be avoided for
at least 2 weeks after surgery.”
