LEARNING OBJECTIVES Review the diagnostic pathway for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in congenitalheartdisease (CHD). Understand and interpret right heart catheterisation data in pulmonaryhypertension related to CHD. Recognise the typical presentation of PAH in patients with CHD.
Due to improvements in recognition and management of their multisystem disease, the long‐term survival of infants, children, and adolescents with trisomy 21 and congenitalheartdisease now matches children with congenitalheartdisease and no genetic condition in many scenarios.
Aims A proportion of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenitalheartdisease (PAH-CHD) do not fit in the current classification.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension related to congenitalheartdisease as a paradigm of complexity Pulmonary arterial hypertension related to congenitalheartdisease (PAH-CHD) really represents a paradigm of complexity.
Patients with pulmonaryhypertension associated with a left-right shunt include a wide spectrum of pathophysiological substrates, ranging from those characterized by pulmonary over-circulation to those with advanced pulmonary vascular disease.
Objective This study assessed the long-term effects of triple therapy with prostanoids on patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenitalheartdisease (PAH-CHD), as there is limited information on the safety and efficacy of this treatment approach.
Journal of the American Heart Association, Volume 12, Issue 23 , December 5, 2023. BackgroundPulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) is a fatal disease characterized by a complex pathogenesis. Transpulmonary exosomal miRs offer valuable insights into pulmonary circulation microenvironments.
Crochetage sign on ECG in ASD ECG in ASD with severe pulmonaryhypertension: Tall R’ in V1, ST depression in inferior leads and V2-V5, and T inversion in inferior leads and V1-V6 are seen. All these features together in a cyanotic congenitalheartdisease is characteristic of tricuspid atresia.
Objective Early risk assessment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients with congenitalheartdisease (CHD) is crucial to ensure timely treatment. Class Activation Mapping (CAM) images demonstrated the model's attention focused on the pulmonary artery segment.

Right Heart Catheterization in Tetralogy of Fallot With the availability of high resolution echocardiographic images and Doppler echocardiography, role of cardiac catheterization has come down in tetralogy of Fallot and other congenitalheartdiseases in general. Normal subjects have a value around 2.1.
That said — physical exam findings of cyanosis and clubbing, together with the history of longstanding dyspnea episodes suggested more of a chronic problem ( presmably the expression of CongenitalHeartDisease in an adult ) — rather than an isolated episode of VT in a young man.
In preparation for the ABIM Cardiovascular Disease exam, check out the BoardVitals Cardiology Board Review Question Bank and we’ll make sure you’re well versed in the following 13 areas covered on the exam: Multiple-Choice Component Arrhythmias 15% Coronary Artery Disease 23% Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy 17% Valvular Disease 15% Pericardial (..)
This is to create a small regulatory orifice in the IAS ( A complicated term for a small ASD ) to decompress the LA and reduce pulmonary congestive symptoms.

Transcript of the video: Ebstein’s Anomaly is one of the cyanotic congenitalheartdisease in which survival to adult life is common. The cyanosis in Ebstein’s anomaly, is usually not due to pulmonaryhypertension, but because tricuspid regurgitation jet is directed across the atrial septal defect.
Right atrial hypertrophy as in tricuspid stenosis, pulmonary stenosis and pulmonaryhypertension. But in a VSD with pulmonaryhypertension A wave is not prominent. So a prominent A wave in a complex congenitalheartdisease situation would indicate that interventricular septum is intact.
Objective To determine the magnitude of any excess risk of mortality and hospitalisation due to COVID-19 infection in patients with congenitalheartdisease (CHD) in the UK healthcare system. Of patients with a positive COVID-19 test, patients with CHD were more likely than controls to be hospitalised (22.4%
Its use has been approved in the adult population with heart failure and described for pulmonaryhypertension (PH). Only case reports and small series have been published about its use in the paediatric population and for congenitalheartdisease (CHD).
BACKGROUND:Right ventricular-arterial coupling (RVAC) describes the relationship between right ventricular contractility and pulmonary vascular afterload. In a retrospective analysis, hybrid (echo and invasive) RVAC metrics included TAPSE/pulmonary vascular resistance (PVRi) and RVFW-LS/PVRi.
Background:Patients with adult congenitalheartdisease (ACHD) form a unique subset of patients with complex ventricular tachycardia (VT).Objective:To Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4148156-A4148156, November 12, 2024.
Congenitalheartdisease (CHD) is likely to increase vulnerability and understanding the predictors of adverse outcomes is key to optimising care. to 1.10 (p<0.01)) and with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; OR 5.99, 95% CI 1.34 to 7.97 (p=0.01)) and genetic disease (OR 2.87, 95% CI 1.04
Methods This nationwide registry-based cohort study included women in Sweden with SHD (pulmonary arterial hypertension, congenitalheartdisease or acquired valvular heartdisease) with singleton births registered in the national Medical Birth Register (MBR) between 1973 and 2014.
Transcript of video: Tetralogy of Fallot is one of the commonest cyanotic congenitalheartdiseases. One is ventricular septal defect, second is overriding aorta, third is pulmonary stenosis, usually right ventricular outflow tract stenosis and associated right ventricular hypertrophy. Right to left shunt is also visible.

PH is an important clinical cardio-pulmonary entity , which we confront day to day. Though the prevalence of PH in a community is just 1 % (25 times less than systemic hypertension) it deserves a special place as the diagnosis is more complex and outcome is often adverse. The overlaps in etiology 1.The
