the volume of blood in the ventricles before contraction
when the fetal heart duct fails to close with 72 hours after birth
a medication that increases blood pressure by increasing SVR. Should only be given via a central line.
when a single great artery arises from both ventricles, overriding a VSD
a procedure to close the open fetal duct using stitches or clips
speed of ventricular contraction
an abnormal opening in the septum between the right and left ventricles
a cyanotic heart defect that is a combination of pulmonary stenosis, VSD, aorta overriding VSD, and right ventricular hypertrophy
narrowing of the value leading from the left ventricle, causing obstruction of ventricular outflow
when the walls separating all four chambers of the heart are poorly formed or absent; the most common heart defect found in Trisomy 21
constriction of the major blood vessel leading away from the heart
the condition in which the pulmonary artery arises from the left ventricle and the aorta from the right ventricle; without other defects, an independent, parallel blood flow circuit exists
when the valve between the right atrium and ventricle is missing or abnormally developed; PFO or ASD and PDA are generally present for blood flow

the acronym for the condition in which the left side of the heart does not form correctly
the brand name of the medication that dilates the ductus arteriosus in infants with congenital heart disease dependent on ductal shunting for oxygenation/perfusion
a communication between RA and LA; blood generally flows from LA to RA
obstruction of blood flow from the RV through the pulmonary artery, due to narrowing of the valve or tissue hypertrophy
the resistance to blood leaving the ventricle
