24 Study Guide

T/F
Shunts are usually independent of systemic or pulmonary pressures and are solely the result of heart defects.
True False

T/F
A patent ductus arteriosus or VSD is sometimes helpful when it is associated with other cardiac defects.
True False

T/F
VSDs always require surgical closure.
True False

T/F
In ASDs or VSDs, murmurs indicate defects.
True False

T/F
Cyanosis is not a major finding in transportation of the great vessels, because the blood is free to travel normally to the lungs.
True False

Abnormal blood flow within the heart is usually referred to as a(n) ?.

In VSD, the shunt direction is generally ? to ?.

Cyanotic defects usually shunt ? to ?.

Cyanosis that results from cardiac defects is usually caused by mixture of ? and ? blood.

Some cardiac defects are not obvious at birth because systemic and pulmonary pressures are nearly ? at that point.

The patent ductus arteriosus has a(n) ?-to-? shunt.

The ductus arteriosus should be totally closed within the ? of life.

Thickening or restriction of the valve from the right ventricle is known as ?.

Defects that obstruct outflow from ventricles tend to cause increased ?, which may lead to ?.

Narrowing of the great vessel leading to the systemic circulation is known as ?.
