Atrial Septal Defect: Definition

A communication between the atria across a defect in the interatrial septum.

ASD: Types

- Secundum ASD
- Primum ASD

- Common atrium

ASD: Associated lesions

Pulmonary stenosis        10%
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection                7%

 ASD: Pathophysiology

Left to right shunt
Pulmonary blood flow increases
Volume over load of right ventricle and pulmonary vascular bed results
May be well tolerated for long periods
Pulmonary vascular resistance progressively rises
Pulmonary hypertension and shunt reversal may ultimately result without treatment.

ASD: Clinical features( symptoms)

- Symptoms depend on the shunt fraction
- Most are usually asymptomatic in the first 2 decades
- Cardiac murmur on routine physical examination
- Dyspnoea
- Easy fatigability with limited exercise tolerance especially when shunt fraction is large.

ASD: Clinical features( signs)

Prominent right ventricular impulse LSE

Systolic ejection murmur LSE due to increased flow across pulmonary vein
Fixed splitting of S2

ASD: Diagnosis

ECG
CXR
ECHO
ASD: Treatment
Surgical closure under CPB
Direct suturing
Pericardial patch

  1. Herpes Finally Gone, thanks to Dr. Utu for his Herbal Treatment.
    I had a sudden onset of cold sores and a new one was appearing each day. I was on primary immunosuppressant I noticed my body just can't fight the virus on its own. After five days of treatment and no success I suspected herpes I went for test and it was confirmed. God was my strength I met a doctor for treatment. He gave me Dr Utu's contact. I contacted him immediately, This medication was far amazing that within 24-48 hrs the blisters were crusting over. The swelling and redness was decreasing as well. I was on four weeks herpes medication which I completed before going for test. I went for herpes test and then again back to my doctor who confirmed me herpes negative it was really like a dream. What a relief! Feel Free to contact Dr Utu Email:- drutuherbalcure@gmail.com OR WhatsApp :- +2347032718477
