Statistics
♥ In the US, a child is born with a CHD every 15 minutes.
♥ Nearly one of every 100 babies is born with a CHD.
♥ Congenital heart defects are the #1 cause of birth defect related deaths.
♥ Congenital heart defects are the leading cause of all infant deaths in the United States.
![Page 3: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Statistics
♥ Each year approximately 40,000 babies are born in the United States with a congenital heart defect.
♥ Thousands of them will not reach their first birthday and thousands more die before they reach adulthood.
♥ However, with recent changes in both medical and surgical management outcomes have improved dramatically.
![Page 4: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Think Congenital Heart Defect When…..
♥ Murmur and cyanosis♥ Cyanosis without respiratory
distress♥ Crying worsens cyanosis♥ Abnormal weight loss, poor
feeding with tachypnea♥ Discordant upper/lower pulses♥ Infants appear septic♥ Diagnosed with a syndrome
![Page 5: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
When thinking about the defects, look carefully at the name...
ATRESIA = missing, not developed STENOSIS = narrowed, stiff, not flexible HYPOPLASTIC = small, not developed SEPTAL = either atrial or ventricular wall which
divides the chambers right & left ANOMALOUS = wrong connection or direction TETRALOGY = four
THE TERMINOLOGY GIVES YOU CLUES...
![Page 6: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
And more terminology…
♥ Vasoactive → raise or lower HR and BP♥ Vasopressors → typically act to raise BP♥ Inotropic → work through and receptors
to vasodilate, vasoconstrict and / or enhance contractility
♥ Chronotropic → change HR by affecting nerves controlling the heart OR
by changing the rhythm from the SA node
![Page 7: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Cardiac Output
♥ Cardiac Output (CO) = HR x SV
volume of blood ejected from the LV / min
♥ Good CO = good tissue perfusion
♥Examples of good cardiac output??
![Page 8: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Cardiac Output
♥ Stroke Volume
♥ Heart Rate
♥Influenced by:♥ Preload ♥ Afterload♥ Compliance♥ Contractility
![Page 9: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Stroke Volume
♥ Volume of blood ejected from the LV with each contraction / ventricular beat
♥60-75% of ventricular volume
♥Stroke volume = Preload + Contractility + Compliance + Afterload
![Page 10: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Treatment of Heart Failure
Goals of treatment include:♥ Maximize cardiac performance♥ Decrease myocardial oxygen demand♥ Improve cardiac contractility ♥ Optimize preload♥ Decrease afterload
![Page 12: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
It all starts here……
![Page 13: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Fetal Heart Development
![Page 14: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fetal Circulation

![Page 17: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
A word about shunting...
© Left to right♥ Oxygenated blood
from systemic side flows to pulmonic side
♥ body receives oxygenated blood
♥ RedBlue=Pink
♥ Acyanotic
Right to left♥ Deoxygenated
blood from the pulmonic side flows to the systemic side
♥ body receives deoxygenated blood
♥ BlueRed=Blue
♥Cyanotic
![Page 18: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Another word about shunting…vascular resistance to flow
♥ PVR: Pulmonary Vascular Resistance♥ Increased= vasoconstriction/decreased flow♥ Decreased = vasodilation/increased flow
♥ SVR: Systemic Vascular Resistance♥ Increased = vasoconstriction/decreased flow♥ Decreased = vasodilation/increased flow
Why is this important?
![Page 19: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Why is this important?
♥ In addition to the adjusting newborn’s transitional circulation….♥ PVR falls and SVR increases, closing the functional
shunts…..
♥ What we, as NURSES, do at the bedside, both to and for the patient, will affect the pattern of both systemic and pulmonary blood flow.
![Page 20: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Why is this important?Nursing Considerations
What do we do at the bedside that affects SVR? Medications-vasoactive infusions Pain control Temperature Regulation
♥ What do we do at the bedside that affects PVR?♥ Suction♥ Hyperventilate/hyperoxygenate♥ Pain control♥ Acidosis
![Page 21: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why is this important?♥ Oxygen is a vasodilator♥ CO2 is a potent pulmonary vasoconstrictor
These are key points to remember when attempting to control where the blood will “want” to go.
Always keep the PATH of LEAST
RESISTANCE in mind.
How we care for our patients WILL
dramatically affect their hemodynamics.

Increased Pulmonary Blood Flow
♥ Remember that oxygen INCREASES pulmonary vasodilation and blood flow through the lungs.
♥ What will giving oxygen to your patient do? Think with a NURSING Focus!!
♥ Risk for developing pulmonary hypertension.

Stage 2: Hemi-Fontan
Bi-directional Glen or Hemi-Fontan
Goal is to maintain the flow of deoxygenated blood to the lungs by attaching the superior vena cava directly onto the pulmonary artery
http://www.chc-pa.org/PrinterFriendly.cfm?PID=1078
![Page 51: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Fontan Procedure
♥ Attach the IVC to the RA and PA.
♥ All returning deoxygenated blood directed straight to the lungs.
♥ Will cause an increase in pressure in the lung vessels
♥ Small fenestration or hole will be created in the baffle in the atrium
♥ Fenestration acts as “pop off” valve
http://www.chc-pa.org/Patient_Info.cfm?ID=1079
![Page 52: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
A word about single ventricle physiology after the Fontan...
♥ Remember that one functional ventricle pumps to the systemic circulation.
♥ The ventricle may become overloaded.♥ Pulmonary blood flow is passive, non-pulsatile
directly from the SVC and IVC to the lungs.♥ If the PA pressure is normal, the systemic venous
pressure should allow for forward flow by exceeding pulmonary artery resistance.
Goal is to find the balance between adequate oxygenation & systemic perfusion

Why are these considerations so important??
♥ Cyanotic CHD♥ Increased Hgb/Hct (Polycythemia) due to chronic
hypoxemia♥ Increased blood viscosity♥ Diuretics—>decrease amount of extra
fluidfurther increase viscosity.♥ High risk of CVA/Stoke♥ Must monitor hydration status carefully!!
♥ Cannot be allowed to become too dehydrated
♥ Similar considerations for CHF patients

Rheumatic Fever
♥ Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory disease that may develop after an infection with Streptococcus bacteria (such as strep throat or scarlet fever).
♥ The disease can affect the heart, joints, skin, and brain.
![Page 68: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Rheumatic Fever
♥ Rheumatic fever primarily affects children ages 6 -15, and occurs approximately 20 days after strep throat or scarlet fever.
♥ Can affect valves within the heart, most often mitral and or aortic valve.
♥ Valves often become stenotic, requiring replacement.
![Page 69: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Rheumatic Fever
♥ Dysfunctional valves and often lead to left ventricular dilation and congestive heart failure, sometimes decades later.
♥ Vegetation may develop on damaged valves and become infected leading to endocarditis.
♥ Myocarditis is present but is not the direct cause of heart failure.
![Page 70: Problems with perfusion (cv) slides](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081413/54674733af7959ba5e8b75d2/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Rheumatic Fever
♥ Rheumatic fever is likely to come back in people who don't take low-dose antibiotics continually, especially during the first 3 -5 years after the first episode of the disease.
♥ Cardiac complications may be severe, particularly if the heart valves are involved.
