  • What is the pathophysiology of atrial septal defect?

    Atrial septal defects allow communication between the systemic and the pulmonary circulations.
    The nature of the shunt, including direction and magnitude of blood flow, depends on both the size of the defect and the relative atrial pressures, which relate to the compliances of the left and right ventricles.

  • What is the pathophysiology of VSD?

    The main pathophysiologic mechanism of VSD is shunt creation between the right and left ventricles.
    The amount of blood shunted and the direction of the shunted blood determine the hemodynamic significance of the VSD.
    These factors are governed by the size, location of the VSD, and pulmonary vascular resistance.

  • The overall effect of a left-to-right shunt is the recirculation of already oxygenated pulmonary venous blood through the pulmonary vasculature.
    This excess pulmonary blood flow results directly or indirectly in almost all of the significant clinical features that characterize heart failure in infants and children.

  • What is the process of atrial septal defect?

    In an atrial septal defect, there's an opening in the wall (septum) between the atria.
    As a result, some oxygenated blood from the left atrium flows through the hole in the septum into the right atrium, where it mixes with oxygen-poor blood and increases the total amount of blood that flows toward the lungs.
