Abstract Cardiac disorders in infants and children are not as common as in adults; therefore, understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of some of the more common and potentially life-threatening cardiac disorders is imperative in the emergency evaluation and management of these patients. Pediatric cardiac disease has typically been divided into congenital versus acquired disorders with a further subdivision of the congenital heart disease into cyanotic versus acyanotic lesions: I- Acyanotic CHDs:1- Ventricular septal defect. 2- Atrial septal defect. 3- Patent ductus arteriosus. 4- Coarctation of the aorta. 5- Pulmonic stenosis. 6- Aortic stenosis. II- Cyanotic CHDs: 1- Tetralogy of fallot. 2- Transposition of the great arteries. 3- Tricuspid atresia. 4- Total anomalous pulmonary venous return. 5- Truncus arteriosus. 6- Pulmonary atresia. 7- Ebstein’s anomaly. 8- Hyoplastic left heart syndrome. 9- Hypoplastic right heart syndrome. |
