Evaluation of QRS, QTc, and JTc intervals in Congenital Heart Disease with Pulmonary Hypertension
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) in congenital heart disease affects the patient’s prognosis. Prolonged QRS and QTc intervals in ECG may intensify life-threatening dysrhythmia in patients. We aimed to investigate the correlation between QRS, QTc, and JTc intervals prolongation in ECG with PH in Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) patients. Mate...
متن کاملAsymptomatic congenital heart disease in children with skeletal chest deformity
Introduction: With respect to high association of skeletal chest deformity with cardiac abnormalities, these patients should be evaluated for evidence of cardiac involvement. So, we used echocardiography to investigate this association. Methods: This case-control study was done on 144 patients with skeletal chest deformity referred to OPD clinic. 240 persons were selected as control group, with...
متن کاملCongenital heart disease and pulmonary hypertension.
Many patients with congenital heart disease and systemic-to-pulmonary shunts develop pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), particularly if the cardiac defect is left unrepaired. A persistent increase in pulmonary blood flow may lead to obstructive arteriopathy and increased pulmonary vascular resistance, a condition that can lead to reversal of shunt and cyanosis (Eisenmenger syndrome). Cardia...
متن کاملCongenital Heart Disease and Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension is common in patients with congenital heart disease, even in those patients with previously repaired lesions, and can lead to considerable symptoms, including exertional dyspnea. Pulmonary hypertension in these patients can be caused by pulmonary arterial or pulmonary venous causes and requires heart catheterization for accurate diagnosis. Some patients may be able to be ...
متن کاملcongenital heart disease with pulmonary hypertension; surgery or medical treatment?
pulmonary arterial hypertension (pha) is a frequent complication of congenital heart disease (chd), most commonly in systemic-to-pulmonary shunt lesions. in patients with an uncorrected left-to right shunt, pah will end up to eisenmenger’s syndrome, which is contraindication of surgery. what about patients with moderate to severe pah, who do not have criteria of eisenmenger’s syndrome; immediat...
