surgical tx of aortic stenosis

-balloon angioplasty to dilate the valve -Konno procedure [valve replacement] -may require repeat procedures

pathophysiology of atrial septal defect

-bc L atrial pressure is higher than R atrial pressure, blood flows from L to R -causes increased flow of oxygenated blood into the R atria -R atria becomes distended -bc there is low pulmonary vascular resistance, blood backs up into the pulmonary vessels and the R ventricle becomes distended as well. But because it is under low pressure, this is often tolerated very well and the child may be asymptomatic

maturation of systems of school-age child

-bladder capacity increases -heart smaller in relation to the rest of body -immune system increasingly effective -bones increase in ossification -physical maturity not necessarily correlated with emotional and social maturity

ventricular septal defect

-blood is forced from left side backwards into the right side and cause mixing of saturated and desaturated blood -increased pressure to pulmonary system

pathophys of mixed defects

-blood is mixed from pulmonary and systemic circulations within the heart chambers >> relative desaturation of blood in systemic blood flow -cardiac output decreases because of volume load on ventricle

repairs of VSD

-cath repairs in clinical trials -surgical repair w/ bypass -pulmonary artery banding (if not too large) or patch

cyanotic CHD

-child may be pink -may develop congestive heart failure (CHF)

circulatory changes at birth

-clamping of umbilical cord cuts off supply of oxygenated blood from the placenta, lungs assume function of oxygenation -inflation of lungs lowers resistance to blood flow through pulmonary system -with increase in pulmonary blood flow and decreased pulmonary resistance, RA pressure falls -LA pressure rises which stimulates closure of the foramen ovale -ductus arteriosus stimulated to close due to increase in O2 sat from changes in pulmonary vascular resistance -remaining fetal circulation structures (umbilical arteries, umbilical vein, and ductus venosus) are obliterated

Prepubescence (Preteens)

-defined as 2 years preceding puberty -typically occurs during preadolescence

transposition of the great arteries

-desaturated blood is being pushed out into the peripheral circulation and the blood that is coming back from the lungs that is saturated is going back to the lungs itself, open up the septums -pulmonary artery leaves the L ventricle and the aorta exits from the R ventricle. No communication between the systemic and pulmonary circulations

gynecomastia

-development of breast tissue in males -may occur with normal achievement of male puberty and resolves within 1 year

hypoplastic left-sided heart syndrome

-don't have left side of the heart -all blood is being pumped at the same rate from the right side -desaturated blood is coming in but it is mixing completely with what is coming off of pulmonic return, pooling and being pushed out but only by right side -causes pulmonary HTN and inadequate BP to circulate blood to body

when can murmurs occur?

-during systole or diastole, or both -in a normal heart in periods of stress— anemia, fever, rapid growth

hypotonic dehydration

-electrolyte deficit exceeds water deficit (do not have enough electrolytes) -ICF more concentrated so fluid moves into cell

tx for tricuspid atresia

postop for cleft palate

-ensure proper airway and positioning -protect suture site -manage pain/support family

tricuspid atresia

-failure of the tricuspid valve to develop -means that there is no opening between the right ventricle where the desaturated blood is supposed to come from the body and be pushed to pulmonary system

pathophysiology of tricuspid atresia

-failure of tricuspid valve to develop -no opening between R atrium and R ventricle -blood flows through ASD or patent foramen ovale to L side of heart and through VSD to R ventricle and out to lungs -mixing of oxygenated and unoxygenated blood in L side of heart -systemic desaturation and pulmonary obstruction

social development of adolescent

-goal is to define one's identity independently from parental authority -much ambivalence -intense sociability or intense loneliness -acceptance by peers

reasons for water imbalance of the infant

-greater fluid intake and output relative to size (drinking more and excreting more, kidneys are not fully developed so allow a lot of urine to come out) -disturbances occur more frequently and rapidly -body surface area (BSA) -larger quantities of fluid lost through the skin -higher metabolic rate -greater production of metabolic wastes -immature kidney function -immature and inefficient in excreting waste

goals of management of kids with cardiac issues

-improve cardiac function (increase contractility and decrease afterload) -decrease preload (remove accumulated fluids and sodium) -decrease cardiac demands -improve tissue oxygenation -decrease oxygen consumption

resp failure is characterized by...

-inadequate oxygenation -inadequate ventilation -combination of both

dietary needs of CF patient

-increased Na since they lose a lot in sweat -may need fat soluble vitamins since they have issues digesting and absorbing fat -Ca because of pancreatic insufficiency -extra calories and protein

control of respiration in infants

-increased arterial carbon dioxide or increased hydrogen concentration results in increased respiratory rate -healthy infants and children compensate for hypercarbia, hypoxia, and acidosis with hyperventilation -premature and young infants less able to compensate

s/s of inadequate oxygenation or ventilation

-increased work of breathing -tripod position -paradoxical respirations -unusual drooling (foreign body aspiration) -decreased gag reflex -pallor or cyanosis -nasal flaring -retractions -head bobbing -grunting (trying to push more air out so they can get more in)

s/s of aortic stenosis

-infants w/ severe defects show signs of decreased CO -faint pulses, hypotension, poor feeding, tachycardia -murmur -exercise intolerance -chest pain -dizziness w/ standing

who can hypertonic dehydration occur in?

-infants who have diarrhea and are given high solute fluids by mouth -children receiving high protein NG feeds (too much concentrate and not enough water in tube formula) -need to have a certain amt of formula and certain amt of water on top of that (parents can fail to give extra water rinse after, don't want to mix water with the feed)

what are the reason school-age children form clubs?

-influence to be a part of a group/club is strong from their peers -important for social development -to break out from their families by merging identity with peers

chronic nonspecific diarrhea

-irritable colon/toddler's diarrhea -growing normally but have loose stools

coarction of the aorta

-kink in the aorta (narrowed near ductus arteriosis) -blood has to be pushed harder to get out of the left ventricle -causes hypertrophy and stricture -destruction of cells because of high turbulence

what should you do if a child arrives with stridor at rest?

-leave them in parents arms -some blow by cool mist O2, if tolerated only -give the patient a racemic Epinephine nebulizer treatment, this will hopefully take down the swelling enough to begin moving air again -IV or oral steroids should be given quickly, so that they are systemically working by the time the racemic Epi begins to wear off

pathophys of Hypoplastic Left-Sided Heart Syndrome

-left side of heart is underdeveloped -left ventricle is small and aortic atresia -most blood flows across patent foramen ovale to right atrium to right ventricle and out the pulmonary artery -descending aorta receives blood from the PDA to supply the systemic circulation -PDA closure >> rapid deterioration and CHF

cricoid

-narrowest portion of airway -anatomic cuff for tracheal tube

pulmonic stenosis

-narrowing from the right ventricle into the pulmonic system -pulmonary valve is stenosed and there is a narrowing at the entrance so you have right ventricle hypertrophy and decreased pulmonary flow out of the right ventricle into pulmonary system

aortic stenosis

-narrowing of the aortic valve -as the ventricle is trying to push blood into aorta, there is a stenosis that is narrowing the outlet of the ventricle -left vent is pushing harder and harder -turbulence causes destruction of the cells -clotting can occur

tx for transposition of the great arteries

-need to open up spaces and do bypasses so that they can get blood to mix until they can repair the heart (open septums) -arterial switch procedure to resect and reanastomose great vessels -coronary arteries have to be reimplanted to supply myocardial circulation

total anomalous pulmonary venous connection

if VSD is large...

-pressures are = in R and L ventricles -blood is shunted in the direction of the least resistance (pulmonary or systemic vascular resistance)

medical management of PDA

peak flow meter

-small, hand-held tool used to measure how well air moves out the lungs -rate of air exhaled is indicated by "peak flow meter reading" -for asthmatic the reading can indicate if there is narrowing in the airway before asthma symptoms show

what do we need to think about with gastroenteritis?

-there during fetal circulation to allow blood to circulate from umbilical cord and into and out of the heart -oxygenated blood can circulate around because pulmonary system is not used at that point

adolescence

-transition between childhood and adulthood -time of growing into psychological, social, and physical maturation

reasons for cardiac cath procedures
