Across
- 2. In the normal transition from fetal to pulmonary circulation this closes as the pressure in the left atrium exceeds the pressure in the right atrium.
- 4. The most common defect.
- 5. Left to right shunt (oxygenated to unoxygenated blood flow)
- 6. An accurate history is an important first step in assessing an infant or child for possible heart defects.
- 11. Pulmonary stenosis, right ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta.
- 13. A child with marked difference between upper and lower extremities suspect coarctation of the aorta.
- 14. Right to left shunt (unoxygenated to oxygenated blood flow)
- 15. Hold this drug in infants if apical pulse is less than 90 bpm.
- 16. A sign of chronic hypoxia common in children with Tetralogy of Fallot.
Down
- 1. This defect is most common defect seen in children with Trisomy 21.
- 3. arteriosus Failure of a normal septation and division of the embryonic bulbar trunk into the pulmonary aorta.
- 7. A sign during feeding or activity which is common to most infants with congenital problems.
- 8. This defect has an abnormal opening allowing blood from the higher pressure left atrium to flow into the lower pressure right atrium causing left to right shunting.
- 9. PDA has this murmur that can be heard systole and diastole.
- 10. episodes of severe right to left shunting, cyanosis, pulmonary hypertension, systemic hypotension, and acidosis.
- 12. Defects are those in which exiting the heart meets an area of narrowing (stenosis).
