The child with congenital heart defect and his family

, , and

ABSTRACT

Although congenital heart malformations represents a public health problem, the families of these children know little about the therapy, social work, special education or care-sharing concepts. Lately there is a tendency to involve more and more parents in the education of these children, while suggesting that the parents involvement only is not sufficient, they should always be educated and advised by a specialist. Parents need time to accept the diagnosis and require repeated explanations. The Ambulatory of the 2nd Pediatric Clinic has 620 children diagnosed with cardiac malformations, aged between 30 days and 16 years old. For these children is needed a complex team that includes pediatric cardiologist, a specialist radiologist, neurologist, ophthalmologist, psychologist. These children require constant monitoring in the background therapy, the optimal time of surgical intervention, children and parents overcoming anxiety. In conclusion, the family of a child with a heart disease should be educated on the disease and report any change of his medical condition to the pediatric cardiologist.

COPILUL CU MALFORMATII CONGENITALE DE CORD SI FAMILIA SA

, , and

REZUMAT

Deşi malformaţiile congenitale de cord reprezintă o reală problemă de sănătate publică, familiile acestor copii ştiu puţin despre terapie, munca socială, educaţie specială sau conceptele de împărţire a îngrijirii. În ultimul timp există tendinţa de a implica tot mai mult părinţii în educaţia acestor copii, totodată sugerându-se că simpla implicare nu este suficientă, ei trebuind să fie educaţi şi sfătuiţi mereu de către un specialist. Părinţii au nevoie de timp pentru a se descărca de vină, pentru a acepta diagnosticul şi pentru a primi explicaţii repetate. Ambulatorul Clinicii II Pediatrie Timişoara are în evidenţă 620 de copii purtători de malformaţii cardiace, cu vârsta cuprinsă între 30 de zile şi 16 ani. Pentru aceşti copii este necesară o muncă în echipă, cu participarea, pe lângă pediatru, a cardiologului, specialistului radiolog, neurolog, oftalmolog, psiholog. Aceşti copii necesită monitorizare permanentă în privinţa terapiei de fond, momentul optim al intervenţiei chirugicale, depăşirea axietăţii copiilor şi a părinţilor. În concluzie, familia copilului purtător al unei boli cardiace trebuie să cunoască şi să fie instruită asupra bolii şi să sesizeze orice intercurenţă medicului cardiolog pediatru.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and mitral regurgitation in children

, , , and

REZUMAT

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a condition characterised by abnormalities in the morphology and dynamics of the mitral valves, associated with systolic anterior motion, resulting both in obstruction and in mitral regurgitation. There is great individual variation in these patients regarding the predominance of one symptom or the other.

Material and method: we considered a study group of 15 children, aged between 2 and 16 years, diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in the Pediatric Clinic no. 2, from Timisoara. Among these, we identified by echocardiography monitoring upon admission or during the periodic health examination, a systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral valve, manifested intermittently in 6 of the cases.

Results and discussion: we could not establish a relationship between the obstruction degree in the left ventricle ejection chamber and the value of the mitral regurgitation flow.

CARDIOMIOPATIA HIPERTROFICA (CMH) SI REGURGITAREA MITRALA LA COPIL

, , , and

REZUMAT

În cadrul CMH au fost descrise anomalii ale morfologiei şi dinamicii valvelor mitrale, asociate cu deplasarea anterioară sistolică ce are drept rezultat atât obstrucţia subaortică, cât şi regurgitarea mitrală. Există variaţii mari individuale la aceşti pacienţi în ceea ce priveşte predominanţa unuia sau a altuia din fenomene.

Material şi metodă: am luat în studiu un lot de 15 copii cu vârsta între 2 şi 16 ani diagnosticaţi cu CMH la Clinica II Pediatrie. Dintre aceştia, monitorizarea ecocardiografică a surprins SAM intermitent la 6 cazuri.

Rezultate şi discuţii: nu am putut stabili o corelaţie între gradul obstrucţiei şi mărimea regurgitării mitrale. Lungimea şi motilitatea valvei mitrale posterioare a determinat în mod invers proporţional mărimea fluxului de regurgitare.

Clinical aspects in dilated cardiomyopathy in newborns and infants

, , , and

ABSTRACT

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by the dilation of cavities and a reduction in the LV and/or RV force of contraction. There are idiopathic, family/genetic, viral and/or immunologic as well as alcoholic/tox cardiomyopathies, or dilated DCMs associated with known cardiac conditions where the degree of the myocardial dysfunction is not explained by the hemodynamic anomalies or by the severity of the ischemia. The cases admitted in the clinic present mostly symptoms such as: heart failure, arrhythmia, pulmonary thromboembolism and sudden death. During November 2006 and January 2007, the medical personnel in the 2nd Pediatric Clinic diagnosed 3 cases of dilated cardiomyopathy in newborns and infants. The positive diagnosis was made in the presence of heart failure (2 cases) and cardiogenic shock (1 case). In all cases of congestive heart failure with early onset in the newborn or infant period, the cardiac ultrasound has a decisive role in establishing the diagnosis of CMD. This allows applying a complex therapeutical plan and sometimes improve the progress of this affection and long term prognosis.

ASPECTE CLINICE IN CARDIOMIOPATIA DILATATIVA (CMD) LA SUGAR SI NOU-NASCUT

, , , and

REZUMAT

Cardiomiopatia (CMP) dilatativă se caracterizează prin dilatarea cavităţilor şi prin diminuarea contractilităţii VS şi/sau a VD. Se disting CMP idiopatice, familiale/genetice, virale şi/sau imunologice, alcoolice/toxice sau CMP dilatative asociate cu boli cardiace cunoscute, dar la care gradul disfuncţiei miocardice nu este explicat de anomaliile hemodinamice sau de severitatea ischemiei. Clinica este dominată de insuficenţă cardiacă, aritmii, tromboembolismul pulmonar, moarte subită. În clinica noastră, în perioada nov. 2006 – ian. 2007 s-au diagnosticat 3 cazuri de CMD la nou-născut şi la sugar. Diagnosticul pozitiv s-a realizat în prezenţa insuficienţei cardiace în 2 cazuri, şoc cardiogen 1 caz. În toate cazurile de insuficienţă cardiacă cu debut precoce în perioada de nou-născut şi sugar, ecocardiografia are rol decisiv în stabilirea diagnosticului de CMD, ceea ce permite uneori ca aplicarea unei scheme terapeutice complexe să amelioreze evoluţia bolii şi prognosticul pe termen lung.
