Slide 1-

Tetralogy of Fallot Beth Harrison Advisor: Samuel Powdrill, PA-C PAS 646
Slide 2-

Outline Review blood flow through the heart Discuss ToF anatomic abnormalities Etiology Clinical Presentation Labs and Exams Two surgical interventions
Slide 3-

Healthy Heart Blood Flow Deoxygenated blood from the body enters the RA At the same time, oxygen rich blood leaves the lungs to flow into the LA Blood in the RA enters the RV through the tricuspid valve At the same time, blood flows from the LA to the LV through the mitral valve
Slide 4-

Blood Flow cont. Blood in the RV is pumped through the PA to the lungs At the same time, LV pumps blood out the aorta to supply the body with oxygen rich blood As seen in ToF, structural defects lead to the circulation of oxygen-poor blood

ToF 4 anatomic malformations: -Right Ventricular Hypertrophy -Pulmonary Valve Stenosis -Transposition of the aorta -Ventricular Septal Defect
Slide 7-

ToF RVH -secondary to PA Stenosis -Increased P on RV leads to RVH Transposition of Aorta -aorta is displaced VSD -”hole in the heart” -mixing of oxygenated and unoxygenated blood -cyanosis PVS -more severe, less blood transported to the lungs and more deoxygenated blood will pass through VSD to aorta to be circulated throughout the body
Slide 8-

Etiology Theory: destruction of the neuronal crest cells during embryogenesis In the laboratory setting, destruction of these cells reproduced results displayed with certain cardiac malformations.
Slide 9-

Clinical Presentation Clinical presentation is directly related to the degree of pulmonary stenosis. Severe stenosis results in immediate cyanosis following birth. Mild stenosis will not present until later. Growth is retarded – insufficient oxygen and nutrients SOA on exertion
Slide 10-

“Tet Spell” “Tet spells” at 2-3yo, child becomes cyanotic, may experience syncope
Slide 11-

Exams and Tests CBC - ⁭ hematocrit ECG -RVH, RAD CXR -boot shaped heart, right sided aortic arch Echocardiogram -VSD
Slide 12-

Surgical Intervention 1 Complete intracardiac repair of VSD and PA stenosis. Enter chest through the sternum. Connect the heart and lung machine. Heart is stopped. Repair the VSD with a patch. Determine if PA needs to be removed or if removing the excessive muscle tissue will help to function correctly.
Slide 13-

Pacemaker wires are placed temporarily because of the potential for postoperative ventricular arrhythmias. Individual chamber pressures are then measured before the chest is closed. The pressure readings help to determine how effective the surgery was. Complications: infective bacterial endocarditis, pulmonic regurgitation, arrhythmias, RBBB, or left anterior hemiblock

Surgical Intervention 2 New method for patching the VSD Transcatheter patches were selected specifically for VSD size. Radio-opaque loop inside of each patch allowed for attachment of double nylon thread. Made retrieval possible if necessary. Pts were anticoagulated with heparin initially, followed with ASA 24 hr later.
Slide 16-

48 hrs later the apparatus was inserted into the femoral vein were it was catherized until it reach the ascending aorta. Echo was used to determine its location within the heart, allowing for proper placement of the patch for the VSD. Pts were monitored in the ICU for 24 hrs. Only 2 of the 16 pts in this study did not benefit from this study. In comparison to others, their VSD’s were much larger. Pulmonary valvuloplastics were also performed. Complications: there were no reported complications for VSD in this study
Slide 17-

Why Do We Need to Know? Not every case of ToF will be discovered by cardiologist and pediatricians. Some symptoms will be subtle and present later in life to PCPs. Several case studies discussed patients who chose not to have their ToF corrected. We need to know if ToF defects are causing their health problem or if the problems are from other sources.
