  1. Foundations of Neonatal Care Cardiac

  2. Objectives • Describe the anatomic and physiologic transition from fetal to neonatal circulation. • List the diagnostic tests to be ordered for an infant with a cardiac condition. • Describe three clinical presentations of cardiac conditions. • Explain the nursing care required for an infant with a cardiac condition. • Describe post–cardiac surgery nursing care. • Identify nursing considerations for the administration of common cardiac medications.

  4. Embryology of CardiacConditions Cardiac tubedevelops; primitiveheart structures form Atrial and ventricular septa form; endocardial cushions form the atrioventricular valves Great vessels including aorta and branches, septum, and semilunar valves form 4 weeks Weeks gestation 8 weeks Ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect; endocardial cushion defect; stenosis, atresia, absence, or deformation of the tricuspid and mitral valves Truncus arteriosus, tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary/aorta valve atresia or stenosis, transposition of great vessels Corrected transposition, dextrocardia
