  1. Pediatric Board Review2013Pediatric Cardiology Prema Ramaswamy, M.D. Co-Director, Pediatric Cardiology, Maimonides Infants and Children's Hospital of Brooklyn

  2. PEDIATRIC CARDIOLOGY • Innocent Murmurs • Congenital structural heart disease • Rhythm problems , syncope etc. • Peri, myo , endocarditis, Rheumatic fever • Syndromes • Kawasaki Disease

  3. Innocent Murmurs • Diastolic murmurs are never innocent • Innocent murmurs are present in at least 50 % of normal children • Still’s murmur : low pitched, vibratory, systolic ejection, increases with the supine position. • Venous hum: continuous murmur in supraclavicular region, reduces on lying down or with pressure on neck.

  4. Upon physical examination of a 3 yr old girl who is new to the practice, you note a continuous grade 2 to grade 3 murmur at the upper right sternal border while she is sitting. In the supine position, you note only a grade 2 low pitched systolic murmur at the apex. Measurements of BP, pulses and precordial palpatations as well as the auscultation is normal. Of the following, the MOST appropriate next step is to: 4 1.reassure the parents about the benign prognosis 2.request a cardiology consultation 3.request chest radiography 4.request echocardiography 5.request electrocardiography

  7. Normal Cardiac Pressures 120/80 25/15 <8 <5 120/<8 25/<5

  8. ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT <8 <5

  9. ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECTS (ASD) • Three types exist : primum, secundum and sinus venosus • The most common is the secundum type • Symptoms: None in childhood, arrhythmias in the 3 rd decade

  10. ASD- cont... • Clinical signs include a 2-3/6 SEM at the ULSB and a fixed wide split S2 • A large ASD causes right ventricular enlargement • EKG: RAD and IRBBB

  11. ASD - cont... • ECHO: Diagnostic • Natural History: Arrhythmias and pulmonary obstructive vascular disease in the 3rd and 4th decade. • Treatment : Surgical vs. transcatheter closure

  12. VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECT 120/<8 25/<5

  13. VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECTS ( VSD) • This is the most common form of CHD • The VSDs are subdivided according to the part of the septum they occur in : Muscular, perimembranous, inlet, outlet • A large VSD causes left ventricular enlargement • With a small VSD there is normal growth and development

  14. VSD - cont….. • With a large defect there may be CHF( usually at 6-8 weeks), pulmonary infections and delayed growth • Clinical signs : Loud 4-5/6 , harsh holosystolic murmur, middiastolic rumble and a loud P2

  15. VSD - cont….. • EKG: LVH or BVH • ECHO: Diagnostic

  16. VSD -cont... Natural history : Small VSDs close spontaneously depending on the site. Unrepaired the large defects may lead to Eisenmenger’s syndrome.

  17. VSD - cont….. • Large VSDs are closed surgically by 6 months of age. • Diuretics,digoxin and afterload reducing agents are used prior to surgery - if needed.

  18. ENDOCARDIAL CUSHION DEFECTS

  19. AVSD - cont... • 1/3rd of babies with this have Down syndrome • EKG : Characteristic with a superior left axis. • Echo : Confirmatory • Management : Anticongestive medications and surgery at 4-8 months of age.

  20. PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS 120/80 25/15

  21. PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS ( PDA) • It is a connection between the aorta and the pulmonary artery. • Very common in preterm babies. • Usually closes in the first 2 weeks of life.

  22. PDA - cont….. • Symptoms : a) None if small • b) If large can cause CHF at 6-8 weeks in a term infant • c) In a preterm baby increasing respiratory support usually occurs after day 3 of life.

  23. PDA Signs: Systolic murmur in a newborn and a continuous “train in a tunnel” murmur in an older child. Best heard below the left clavicle. A large PDA causes LA and LV enlargement. Treatment : Preterm vs. term baby.

  24. PDA - cont... • In a preterm it can be closed medically using indomethacin. • In a term baby if still open at 3 months of age then coil closure by cardiac catherization is the method of choice.

  25. 1. A 3 month old girl who has Down syndrome exhibits poor weight gain, tachypnea and a low pitched grade 2 murmur. Chest radiography reveals cardiomegaly and increased pulmonary vascularity. EKG documents RVH and a superior frontal plane QRS. Of the following, the MOST likely diagnosis is: • A. coarctation of the aorta • B. complete atrioventricular septal defect • C. patent ductus arteriosus • D. Perimembranous VSD • E. secundum ASD

  26. A 5 day old infant born at 31 weeks gestation is on ventilatory support. He has a grade 2 holosystolic murmur that extends past the second heart sound. Pulses are bounding. Precordial palpation is hyperdynamic. Echocardiography reveals a large patent ductusarteriosus. Concentrations of hemoglobin, electrolytes and creatinine are normal.Of the following the most appropriate INITIAL management is to: 6 administer furosemide intravenously administer indomethacin intravenously administer indomethacin via nasogastric tube. defer intervention because spontaneous closure is likely obtain a surgical consultation for ligation of the ductus.

  27. 3) You are evaluating a newborn 6 hours after his birth. Labor and delivery were uncomplicated, but amniocentesis performed during the pregnancy revealed trisomy 21. Fetal echocardiography at 20 weeks' gestation showed normal findings. The infant currently is sleeping and is well-perfused, with a heart rate of 140 beats/min and no audible murmurs. His physical features are consistent with Down syndrome. • Of the following, the MOST appropriate diagnostic study to perform is:  • 1)barium swallow • 2)    cervical spine radiography • 3)    echocardiography • 4)    head ultrasonography • 5) radiography of the abdomen

  28. 4. A term newborn has tachypnea, rales, tachycardia, audible gallop and diminished arm and leg pulses. Echocardiography shows enlargement of both ventricular chambers with good systolic function and no congenital heart disease. Of the following, the MOST likely diagnosis is: • A. Carnitine deficiency • B. hyperthyroidism • C. hypoglycemia • D. intracranial arteriovenous malformation • E. pheochromocytoma

  29. COARCTATION OF THE AORTA

  30. Coarctation of the Aorta (CoA) • More common in males • Almost always juxtaductal • 85% of children with CoA have a bicuspid aortic valve.

  31. CoA - cont…. • Symptoms and Signs: SEVERE : Shock MODERATE : CHF, MILD : Headaches, leg claudication • Decreased femoral pulses are an important sign esp. in neonates. • BP lower in the lower limbs

  32. CoA - cont…. • ECHO : Diagnostic • Treatment: For an infant in shock -PGE1 immediately. • Surgical vs. transcatheter repair.

  33. Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome • Varying degrees of left heart hypoplasia at multiple levels • Babies present in cardiogenic SHOCK once the ductus closes. • Immediate treatment is PGE1 intravenously as an infusion.

  34. Hypoplastic Left Heart syndrome • Surgical Treatment: • Norwood at birth • Glenn at 4-8 mnths • Fontan at 2-4 years

  35. 3) A 7-month-old female has undergone the second stage of surgical palliation (Glenn operation) for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. She was discharged from the hospital 1 week ago, and her mother brings her to the office because of irritability that began this morning. On physical examination, the infant is awake and irritable, with a heart rate of 150 beats/min and a respiratory rate of 50 breaths/min. She has cyanosis of the face and mucosal surfaces and swelling of the arms and head.Of the following, the BEST explanation for this patient's clinical presentation is • A)polycythemia • B)    postpericardiotomy syndrome • C)    protein-losing enteropathy • D)    superior vena cava syndrome • E) thoracic duct injury

  36. Pulmonic/ Aortic Stenosis

  37. Pulmonic This may be at the valve, subvalvar or supravalvar. Symptoms: None in mild or moderate stenosis. Cyanosis is seen only with critical PS. Signs: ejection click and a harsh SEM , at the ULSB. ECHO : Diagnostic Treatment: Ballooning Aortic Stenosis possible at the valve, subvalvar or supravalvar. This is a more significant and a dangerous lesion compared to PS. More common in males. Valvar AS is usually associated with a bicuspid aortic valve. Treatment: Ballooning Stenosis

  38. AS • A type of subvalvar AS is also called HCM which is the commonest cause of sudden death in children • Symptoms: Mild : None Moderate to severe: Chest pain, fatigability, syncope.

  39. HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY

  40. A 3 day old girl is found unconscious in her crib and is brought to the ED. Findings include: tachypnea, tachycardia, pallor; poor capillary refill; hepatomegaly; cardiomegaly with increased pulmonary vascular markings; hemoglobin concentration 17 gm/dl; and hematocrit, 51%. Of the following, the cardiogenic shock in this girl MOST likely is due to: 6 critical aortic stenosis erythroblastosisfetalis patent ductusarteriosus severe hypovolemia ventricular septal defect

  41. 2. A 6 hour-old infant has increasing pallor, tachypnea and respiratory distress. Physical examination reveals an enlarged liver, a gallop rhythm, poor pulses in the upper extremities and absent pulses in the lower extremities. In addition to treating the infant for sepsis, the most appropriate INITIAL management is to administer: • 1. a dopamine infusion • 2. a loading dose of digoxin • 3. a 25% glucose and water solution • 4. furosemide • 5. prostaglandin E1.

  42. BLUE LESIONS

  43. There has to be a RIGHT to LEFT shunt to cause cyanosis

  44. Tetralogy of Fallot • Most common cyanotic heart disease. • The four abnormalities include: • Pulmonary stenosis • RVH • VSD • Overriding Aorta • Signs include cyanosis, murmur, squatting and spells.

  45. TOF cont.. • A “tet” spell consists of rapid breathing and increased cyanosis. Any event like crying or increased physical activity can initiate the spell. • Treatment includes: • holding the baby in a knee chest position • Morphine • Oxygen, beta blocker, general anesthesia,
