Clinical Impression Congenital Heart Disease Pneumonia
Difficulty breathing (dyspnea) Frequent respiratory infections in children Sensation of feeling the heart beat (palpitations) in adults Shortness of breath with activity Abdominal distention Cyanosis in some patients Chest pain Fainting Fatigue Poor weight gain or failure to thrive in infants with severe blockage Shortness of breath Sudden death Bounding pulse Fast breathing Poor feeding habits Shortness of breath Sweating while feeding Tiring very easily Poor growth Dizziness or fainting Shortness of breath Pounding headache Chest pain Cold feet or legs Failure to thrive Poor growth Breathlessness with activity Chest pain Fainting, weakness, or dizziness with activity Palpitations Shortness of breath Fast breathing Hard breathing Paleness Failure to gain weight Fast heart rate Sweating while feeding Frequent respiratory infections
Ventricular Septal Defect • most common ACHD (25%) • SYNONYMS * Roger’s disease * Interventricularseptal defect * Congenital cardiac anomaly
Ventricular Septal Defect • Physical size of the VSD is a major determinant of the size of the left-to-right shunt • Restrictive VSD (usually <0.5 cm2) - right ventricular pressure is normal • Large nonrestrictive VSDs (usually >1.0 cm2)- right and left ventricular pressure is equalized
AnatomicalClassification • Membranous/ perimembranousVSD • Most common CHD (males>females) • • Muscular VSD • “Swiss cheese” VSD • SupracristalVSD • Least common
The contribution of pulse oximetry to the early detectionof congenital heart disease in newborns Romaine Arlettaz, Andrea SerainaBauschatz, Marion Mönkhoff , Bettina Essers, Urs Bauersfeld Eur J Pediatr (2006) 165: 94–98
Objectives • To determine the effectiveness of a pulse-oximetric screening performed on the first day of life for the detection of congenital heart disease in otherwise healthy newborns • To determine if a pulse-oximetric screening combined with clinical examination is superior in the diagnosis of congenital heart disease to clinical examination alone
Methods • Study design: prospective multi-centre study • Zurich, Switzerland; May 2003 to May 2004 • Population: infants above 35 weeks of gestation (n=3,262)
Conclusion • Postductalpulse-oximetric screening in the first few days of life is an effective means for detecting cyanotic congenital heart disease in otherwise healthy newborns
