| Congenital heart disease | An abnormality of anomally of the heart this present at birth. conquences of many of of these defects include heart hailure, predisposition to infection, hypoxia and alteration in growth |
| Factors that play a role in CHD | Environmental and geneitic risk factors include: intrauterine rubella exposure, maternal alcoholismm DM advanced maternal age, and maternal drug ingestion. sibling or parent with CHD chromosonal anomalies |
| CHD categories are related to four physiologic characteristics | Increased pulmonary blood flow decreased pulmonary blood flow obstruction to systemic blood flow mixed blood flow |
| Clinical manifestation of CHD | Cyanosis pallor cardiomegaly pericardial rubs murmurs additional heart sounds in s3 and s4 discrepancies between apical and radical pulses tachypnea dyspnea gruntingdigital clubbing hepatomegaly splenomgaly discrepancies between upper and low extremity bp crackles and wheezing |

| Defects involving increased pulmonary blood flow CHD | Increased pulmonary blood flow are the most common CHD in this type of defect there is a communication of some type between the right and left sides of the heart. because of the increased pressure of the left side of the heart, some of the blood is pushed back to the right side of the heart. The most common defects involving increased pulmonary blood flow are patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defect, and ventricular septal defect VSD |
| Atrial septal defect | Abnormal opening in the atrial spetum that enables oxygenated blood to flow from the higher pressure left atrium to the lower pressure right atrium, which causese the blood to become deoxygenated. Clinical manifestations: smaller defects less then 5mm often asysmptomatic or do not have s/s until later in life. manifestation consistent with HF include frequent respiratory infections and difficulty breathing. a characteristic harsh systolic murmur mayybe heard over the third intercostal space. |
| Ventricular septal defect | A ventricular sptal defect (VSD) is an abnormal opening in the interventriclal septum, resulting in the flow of oxygenated blood from higher pressure in the right ventricle, which causes the blood to become deoxygenated. pin hole to opening to absence of the entire septum ( single ventricle) Clinical manifestations include a loud harsh systolic murmur and a palpable thrill |
| Defects involving decreased plumamany blood flow | Decreased pulmonary blood flow result when there is some type of obstruction of blood flow to the lungs or if there is no connection between the right side of the heart and the lungs. examples of defects involving decreased pulmonary blood flow include pulmanary stenosis, pulmonary atresia and tetralogy of fallot , the amount of obstruction or lack of connection determins the sysmptoms. the most common CHD reslting in decreased pulmonary blood flow is tetralogy of fallot. |
| Tetralogy of fallot | Invovles a combination of four defects 1. pulmonary stenosis 2. VSD 3. right ventricular hypertrophy 4. overriding aorta |
| Four physical characteristics of CHD | Increased pulmonary blood flow decreased pulmonary blood flow obstruction to systemic blood flow mixed blood flow |

| Idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP) | Is characterized by a marked decrease in the number of circulation platelets with resultant bleeding beneath the skin. this is most common in kids ages 2-10 |
| Ed for the child with hemophilia | Parents should be taught the RICE method: rest, ice, compression. and elevation. the child and family should be instructed in safely administering factor products at home. parents should seek er care if the child has s/s of intracranial pressure which can indicated intracranial bleeding, secer headache. slurred speech, comiting and disorientiaion. |
