Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome and Heart failure
Across
- 2. Tachypnea,Dyspnea,Retractions (infants),Flaring nares,Exercise intolerance,Orthopnea,Cough, hoarseness,Cyanosis,Wheezing (rare),Grunting
- 4. blood flow, from the PDA into the hypoplastic ascending aorta provides coronary and cerebral blood flow.
- 6. can contribute to myocardial repair and the growth of new blood vessels.
- 7. first-line treatment of HF.
- 8. Routing of the inferior vena cava blood flow to the PA with a grafted or artificial tube. This occurs at approximately 3 years of age.
- 10. Anastomosis of the superior vena cava to the PA and ligation of previously placed shunt. This is completed around 4 months of life.
- 12. development of heart failure can happen at any point.
- 14. mechanisms, including the sympathetic nervous system and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
Down
- 1. infusion to maintain flow through the DA
- 3. If there is not an adequate ASD or PFO, immediate interventional cardiac and or balloon atrial septostomy is needed.
- 5. unable to maintain sufficient cardiac output to meet the metabolic demands of the body.
- 9. features, underdevelopment of the LV, aorta, and aortic arch, as well as small or absent mitral and aortic valves
- 11. Anastomosis of the main PA to the aorta to create a new aorta (or neo-aorta), construction of shunt to provide pulmonary blood flow (either modified Blalock-Taussig shunt or RV-PA conduit), and creation of a large ASD. This is performed in the first few days of life.
- 13. is the Hybrid Stage I palliation.to restrict pulmonary blood flow and stenting of the PDA to provide stable systemic blood flow.
