Nine most common abnormalities (accounting for 80% of all lesions)
Describe the changes at birth to the baby's circulation Closure of umbilical vessels Increased systemic vascular resistance Decreased pulmonary vascular resistance Increased pulmonary blood flow Closure of ductus arteriosus, foramen ovale and ductus venosus
Teratogens and their effects Rubella Coarct, VSD, PDA Alcohol VSD Phenytoin ASD Lithium Ebsteins anomaly Warfarin VSD, TOF
ACYANOTIC CHD VSD PDA ASD Coarctation of the aorta Aortic stenosis
CYANOTIC CHD Transposition of the Great Arteries Tetralogy of Fallot Pulmonary Atresia Ebstein Anomaly Tricuspid Atresia
What are the signs and symptoms of HF in children? FTT, Sweating, Poor feeding, Lethargy, TACHYCARDIA WITHOUT RECESSION, Hepatomegaly, Pallor/Cyanosis, Murmer
The Three 3s of CHD 3 Holes 3 Blocked Pipes 3 Blue Babies
3 Holes Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) Patent Ductus Arteriosus
Ventral Septal Defect (VSD) Presentation Commonest CHD - >30% Asymptomatic Recurrent chest infections Heart Failure
Clinical features of VSD Pansystolic murmur (LLSE) Thrill LSE
Management of VSD Conservative - feeds, diuretics, ACEi Surgery - 3-6 months
Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) Presentation Asymptomatic Recurrent chest infections Dyspnoea
ASD Clinical features FIXED SPLITTING of 2nd heart sound Ejection systolic murmur (Upper Left Sternal Edge)
Management of ASD Most close spontaneously 3-5 yrs: cardiac catheterisation or surgery
Patent Ductus Arteriosus 12% Commonest in preterm Continuous murmur Collapsing pulse Sick neonate Treat medically or surgically
Presentation of Persistent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) Asymptomatic Heart Failure Pulmonary hypertension
Clinical features of PDA Continuous murmur under clavicle Bounding pulses
Management of PDA Diuretics IBUPROFEN ACEi Ligation
Ductus arteriosus dependent lesions Coarctation of the aorta Transposition of the great arteries Pulmonary stenosis/atresia Aortic stenosis/atresia
3 Blocked Pipes Pulmonary stenosis Aortic stenosis Coarctation of aorta
Pulmonary Stenosis 8% Children are pink! Usually presents as a ejection systolic murmur Usually no symptoms May present with signs of heart failure
Aortic Stenosis 5% Symptoms and clinical features depend on severity Symptoms more common than with PS ESM radiates to neck Thrills common
Presentation of coarctation of aorta Poor feeding Lethargy Dyspnoea Headaches Calf pain
Clinical features of coarctation of aorta Ejection systolic murmur between shoulder blades Absent/weak femoral pulses Gallop rhythm Radio-femoral delay Upper limb hypertension Collaterals
Management of coarctation of aorta Prostaglandin E1 infusion Stenting Surgical repair
3 Blue Babies Tetralogy of Fallot Transposition of the Great Arteries ‘Complex’ CHD
The four parts of Tetralogy of Fallot VSD Pulmonary Stenosis Overriding aorta RVH
Presentation of Tetralogy of Fallot Cyanotic spells Cyanosis Squatting on exercise
Clinical features of ToF Ejection systolic murmur LSE (Boot-shaped heart on CXR)
Management of ToF Surgical repair at 6 months Cyanotic spell - morphine and beta-blocker
Presentation of Transposition of Great Arteries Cyanosis Clubbing
Clinical features of ToGA Cyanotic Death if not treated
Management of ToGA Maintain ductus arteriosus Balloon atrial septostomy Arterial switch procedures
Presentation and Clinical Features of Left Hypoplastic Heart Syndrome (LHHS) Presentation - Collapse Clinical Features - Shock within 72 hrs
Management of LHHS Prostaglandin infusion Balloon atrial septostomy Staged repair using Norwood type procedure
Innocent murmurs Most common at 3 – 4 years old Increases with fever/vary with posture The S’s : soft, systolic, sternal edge (localised), symptomless Normal HS
Define cyanosis >5g/dl of deoxygenated Hb Impossible in profound anaemia Can reflect normality in polycythaemia
Symptoms of heart failure Breathlessness (particularly on feeding or exertion) Sweating Poor feeding Recurrent chest infections.
Signs of heart failure Poor weight gain or ‘faltering growth’ Tachypnoea Tachycardia Heart murmur, gallop rhythm Enlarged heart Hepatomegaly Cool peripheries
In the 1st week of life, what is the likely cause of heart failure? Left heart obstruction, e.g. coarctation of the aorta Arterial perfusion may be predominantly by right-to-left flow of blood via the arterial duct
After the 1st week of life, what is the likely cause of progressive heart failure? Left-to-right shunt During the subsequent weeks, as the pulmonary vascular resistance falls, there is a progressive increase in left-to-right shunt and increasing pulmonary blood flow -> pulmonary oedema + dyspnoea Such symptoms of heart failure will increase up to the age of about 3 months, but may subsequently improve (↑ pulmonary vascular resistance)
Regarding the previous flashcard, if the child is left untreated, what will they develop? Eisenmenger syndrome Irreversibly raised pulmonary vascular resistance Results from chronically raised pulmonary arterial pressure and flow Now the shunt is from right to left and the teenager is blue
Clinical features of infective endocarditis Fever Anaemia and pallor Splinter haemorrhages in nailbed Clubbing (late) Necrotic skin lesions Changing cardiac signs Splenomegaly Neurological signs from cerebral infarction Retinal infarcts Arthritis/arthralgia Haematuria (microscopic
Kawasaki disease Systemic vasculitis Mainly affects children of 6 months - 4yrs (peak at the end of the 1st year) Can cause significant cardiac disease Aneurysms of the coronary arteries are a potentially devastating complication Echocardiogram may show: pericardial effusion, myocardial disease (poor contractility), endocardial disease (valve regurgitation) or coronary disease with aneurysm formation, which can be giant (>8 mm in diameter)
Clinical features of Kawasaki disease Fever >5 days and four other features: - Non-purulent conjunctivitis - Red mucous membranes - Cervical lymphadenopathy - Rash - Red and oedematous palms and soles - Peeling of fingers and toes 'Incomplete' cases can occur, especially in infants
Treatment of Kawasaki disease IV immunoglobulins Aspirin
