Definition
Defect in inter ventricular septum
Etiology
1- 50 % idiopathic ( most common ) .
2- 50 % genetic base ( positive family history ) + the mother Gives history of environmental factors As :

Exposure to irradiation .

Drugs .

Congenital infection as rubella .

Maternal disease .

Abnormal features chromosomal or genetic disorders As Down's syndrome .


Types

1- According to site
inter ventricular septum left and right ventricle - Has lower 2/3 part of muscular wall of the ventricle called muscular part of interventricular septum .
- & upper 1/3 is a layer of endocardium of Rt. V & a layer of endocardium of Lt. V . the 2 membrnes

2- According to size of the VSD
a)

Wide VSD if > 1 cm .

b)

Heart failure
cardiomyopathy ..

definition
Means failure of the cardic muscle to supply the tissues with their requirments of blood flow

It is a clinical syndrome in which the heart cant maintain sufficient cardic output to meet the metabolic
needs of the body inspite of normal venous return
Causes
1- May deue to congenital heart disease
o

VSD left 1st then right late

ASD right ventricular failure

PDA left ventricular failure ,,, rare right VF

Fallot if heart failure right VF

AS ( congenital ) left VF

Coarctation of Aorta left VF

2- If Rheumatic disease
o

MS right only

MR left and rare right

AS or AR left ventricular failure

3- Cardic muscle itself


o

Cardiomeglay

Rheumatic carditis

Infective endocarditis

Toxic or viral myocarditis ( as viral bacterial pneumonia )

4- May activity or activity


o

Tachyarrhythmia

Or bradyarrhythmia due to block

High cardic output failure ( as in thyrotoxicosis thyroxin severe tachycardia )

Or anemia make compensatory tachycardia if severe anemia

Anemic heart failure

Arterio venous fistula venous return congestive heart failure

5- May Cor pulmonale obliterate pulmonary vessels pulmonary hypertension right sided heart failure
6- Systemic hypertension
o

Left ventricular contract against pressure

Left ventricular hypertrophy then failure

7- Pulmonary embolism pulmonary hypertension right sided heart failure


8- Over hydration by IV fluids
congestive heart failure due to volume overload of blood
Clinical manifestations
cardic muscle
1- low COP :
to left side in lung

blood in pulmonary right ventricular failure ) low COP ( blood in Aorta

- Also, if left VF blood in Aorta ( low COP )


So, all heart failure ,,, low cardic output
stagnation ventricle 2- stagnation of blood :
a- if Rt VF manifestations of ststemic congestion
stagnation in SVC and IVC stagnation in right atrium right - So, manifestations of systemic congestions
.. ,,,
congested pulsating neck veins ,,,
+ enlarged tender liver + shifting dullness ( ascites ) + Odema lower limb
so, no dyspnea , no orthopnea etc. No lung congestion
b- If left sided heart failure congestive lung symptoms :
- Stagnation in left atrium stagnation in lung congestive lung symptoms
- If neglected stagnation in pulmonary Rt V F ( )

1- Low cardic output symptoms + auscultations

2- systemic venous congestion manifestations right sided heart failure


3- or manifestations of pulmonary venous congestion left sided heart failure

If best heard on tricuspid right ventricular failure
If best heard on mitral left ventricular failure
If all through biventricular failure

So, right ventricular failure

3- If all biventricular F ( congestive heart failure )

symptoms
:
congestive lung symptoms dyspnea Or refuse feeding poor feeding So, poor Wt gain

signs
1- Generalized odema even puffiness
2- Tender hepatomegaly if right VF
3- Pitting odema + ascites
4- Crepitation in chest if left side VF

Investigations
Only to know underlying etiology .. But, heart failure itself is a clinical diagnosis only

- At first Give 1/2 mg ( 1/2 dose ) slowly IV
- Then give 1/4 mg after 8 hours ..
- Then give 1/4 mg after another 8 hours ( after 16 Hrs of the 1 st dose )
- Then after another 8 hours give maintenance dose ( any maintenance = 1/5 loading dose )
