    Ch02.qxd 7/5/04 3:06 PM Page 13 Cardiology 2 FETAL CARDIOVASCULAR PHYSIOLOGY The ‘basic science’ nature of this topic – as well as the potential pathological implications in paediatric cardiology – makes it a likely viva question. Oxygenated blood from the placenta returns to the fetus via the umbilical vein (of which there is only one). Fifty per cent traverses the liver and the remaining 50% bypasses the liver via the ductus venosus into the inferior vena cava. In the right atrium blood arriving from the upper body from the superior vena cava (low oxygen saturation) preferentially crosses the tricus- pid valve into the right ventricle and then via the ductus flows into the descending aorta and back to the placenta via the umbilical arteries (two) to reoxygenate. The relatively oxygenated blood from the inferior vena cava, however, preferentially crosses the foramen ovale into the left atrium and left ventricle to be distributed to the upper body (including the brain and coro- nary circulation). Because of this pattern of flow in the right atrium we have highly oxygenated blood reaching the brain and deoxygenated blood reach- ing the placenta. High pulmonary arteriolar pressure ensures that most blood traverses the pulmonary artery via the ductus. Changes at birth 1. Occlusion of the umbilical cord removes the low-resistance capillary bed from the circulation. 2. Breathing results in a marked decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance. 3. In consequence, there is increased pulmonary blood flow returning to the left atrium causing the foramen ovale to close. 4. Well-oxygenated blood from the lungs and the loss of endogenous prostaglandins from the placenta result in closure of the ductus arteriosus.

  • Rheumatic Heart Disease
    RHEUMATIC HEART DISEASE Rheumatic fever is an acute immunologically mediated multisystem inflammatory disease that occurs few weeks after an attack of group A beta- hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis. It is not an infective disease. The most commonly affected age group is children between the ages of 5-15 yearsQ. The disease is a type II hypersensitivity reaction in which antibodies against ‘M’ protein of some streptococcal strains (1, 3, 5, 6, and 18) cross-react with the glycoprotein antigens in the heart, joints and other tissues (molecular mimicry). CLINICAL FEATURES It presents with fever, anorexia, lethargy and joint pain 2-3 WEEKS after an episode of Streptococcal Infection is required for diagnosis Migratory Polyarthritis is the commonest major manifestation. Q Salient feature`s of the major criteria Carditis All the layers of the heart namely pericardium, myocardium and endocardium are involved, so this is called pancarditis. The pericarditis is associated with fibrinous/serofibrinous exudate and is called as ‘bread and butter’ pericarditis. It may manifest as breathlessness (due to heart failure or pericardial effusion), palpitations or chest pain (usually due to pericarditis or pancarditis). Other features include tachycardia, cardiac enlargement and new or changed murmurs. A soft mid-diastolic murmur (the Carey Coombs murmur) is typically due to valvulitis, with nodules forming on the mitral valve leaflets. Aortic regurgitation occurs in 50% of cases but the tricuspid and pulmonary valves are rarely involved. Pericarditis may cause chest pain, a pericardial friction rub and precordial tenderness. Cardiac failure may be due to myocardial dysfunction or valvular regurgitation. Valvular involvement is common in rheumatic heart disease.

    Cardiovascular Pathology The Perfect Preparation for USMLE® Step 1 2021 Edition You cannot separate passion from pathology any more than you can separate a person‘s spirit from his body. (Richard Selzer) www.lecturio.com Cardiovascular Pathology eBook Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. (Mahatma Gandhi) Pathology is one of the most-tested subjects on the USMLE® Step 1 exam. At the heart of the pathology questions on the USMLE® exam is cardiovascular pathology. The challenge of cardiovascular pathology is that it requires students to be able to not only recall memorized facts about cardiovascular pathology, but also to thoroughly un- derstand the intricate interplay between cardiovascular physiology and pathology. Understanding cardiovascular pathology will not only allow you to do well on the USMLE® Step 1 exam, but it will also serve as the foundation of your future patient care. This eBook... ✓ ...will provide you with everything you need to know about cardiovascular pathology for your USMLE® Step 1 exam. ✓ ...will equip you with knowledge about the most important diseases related to the cardiovascular system, as well as build bridges to the related medical sciences, thus providing you with the deepest understanding of all cardiovascular pathology topics. ✓ ...is specifically for students who already have a strong foundation in the basic sciences, such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, microbiology & immunology, and pharmacology. Elements of this eBook High-yield: Murmurs of grade III and above are High-yield-information will help you to focus on the most important facts. usually pathological. (...) A number of descriptive pictures, mnemonics, and overviews, but also a reduction to the essentials, will help you to get the best out of your learning time.

  • 11 Valvular Heart Disease and Rheumatic Fever
    Chapter 11: Valvular Heart Disease and Rheumatic Fever 375 11 Valvular Heart Disease and Rheumatic Fever CONTENTS AORTIC STENOSIS AORTIC REGURGITATION MITRAL STENOSIS MITRAL REGURGITATION MITRAL VALVE PROLAPSE RHEUMATIC FEVER BIBLIOGRAPHY AORTIC STENOSIS Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular lesion in the United States. This lesion is common because approximately 2% of individuals are born with a bicuspid valve which is prone to stenosis, and the aging population is increasing, and calcific aortic stenosis progresses with advancing years. Rheumatic aortic stenosis is now uncommon, except in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. The patient’s age at the time of diagnosis usually gives a reasonable assessment of the underlying disease. • Diagnosis before age 30 is typical of congenital aortic stenosis. • In patients over age 70, calcific aortic sclerosis owing to degenerative calcification is common, and significant stenosis develops in up to 5% of these individuals. Aortic sclerosis is common in the elderly, and although the lesion is significant, it is hemody- namically not important. Stenosis develops particularly when there is associated hyper- cholesterolemia. Importantly, the progression of stenosis can be significantly retarded by statin therapy. • A bicuspid valve occurs in approximately 2% of the population, with a male to female ratio of 4:1, and is predisposed to degenerative calcification and stenosis. Between ages 30 and 70, calcification of a bicuspid valve is the most common cause of aortic stenosis, and much less frequently, cases of rheumatic valvular disease are encountered. The causes of aortic stenosis can be seen in Table 11.1. From: Contemporary Cardiology: Heart Disease Diagnosis and Therapy: A Practical Approach, Second Edition Edited by: M.
