Hello! Im a 14 year old girl with congenital heart disease, I was born with a defective pulmonary valve (pulmonary stenosis) and some other issues, but when I was born there was around 20 different health staff in the room I was transferred to the children’s hospital when I wasn’t even 1 hour old I was hooked up to many machines and wires for 2 months along with many other hospital visits following, I would often turn blue, and when I was 6 months old I had open heart surgery they completely removed my pulmonary valve and I haven’t had one since, until about 5 months ago I had to have open heart surgery as my heart needs the valve now that I am almost fully grown and i was fully aware like as long as I can remember that I would need this surgery around 15-16 years old but I needed it sooner which is okay as I am a strong and healthy young woman I wasn’t actually like scared about the surgery I was excited about being able to finally run around with my peers and do sports without being restricted, I got out of the hospital 2 days after my recent surgery and it’s been going well! I know that I am very fortunate and grateful that I have access to health care and treatment. (Also I am Canadian as for like hospital bills there wasn’t any) if you have a heart condition or know someone with one young or old it can come with lots of challenges, but I believe that the big scar on my chest and the other random ones are my battle scars I love them! I enjoy teaching people about them and I’ve never tried to hide them as I believe anyone who has them are very strong! ❤ ❤
I also have a very obvious heart murmur and often when I would visit the hospital medical students would get to listen to my heart and its always a bit funny to me to see the surprised look on their face as it sounds pretty different from a normal heart. ❤️
We do love you guys so much ! I can't tell you how many time I've listened to heart murmur recordings but the only one I can recognise accurately are the ones I've on real patients. I'm sure those med students are grateful ;) @LilyUnkn0wn0
I was so confused during my nursing lecture when my professor tried to explained this to us. However, this video helped me really understand the defects because of the beautiful explanations and visuals. Thank you so much!!
Many thanks for this. For those interested in VSDs, I want to clarify re pregnancy; small defects or repaired defects pose no problems. However, if the defect is moderate or the patient has pulmonary hypertension, they may develop right ventricular failure during pregnancy with worsening pulmonary hypertension. Of course, pregnancy should be avoid completely if she has developed Eisinmengers.
7:34 subhanallah, does this not blow your mind away just how clever the normal circulation is in a foetus vs when a baby is born. It’s processes like these that confirm that Almighty Allah created us. But thank you for this video it’s so helpful! You explain things really well :)
Tetralogy of fallot with PA and MAPCAS. My son was born with this condition. He had no pulmonary artery and the MAPCAS fed blood to his lungs.... problem is they dont behave like regular vessels, and therefore can close (when ductal cells are present), or they just dont grow...so the baby's pulmonary blood supply decreases as the baby outgrows their capacity. O2 sats drop as the blood is already a mixture of red and blue, and now its restricted by the narrowing vessels and/or increased requirements secondary to the baby's growth.
I'm sorry, I didn't understand the part where PDA leads to cyanosis of the distal parts of the body. I was thinking that since it is oxygenated blood moving into deoxygenated blood, which will still go to the lungs for oxygenation, it should be less likely yo cause cyanosis, though the admixture was happening more distally than an ASD or a VSD 🙏🙏. Can I get some help here please? Thank you 🙏

I love the way all the sounds the defect produce are noted 👌🏾👍🏾👏🏾
I'm studying for my pediatric CCRN and this is a great refresher for congenital malformations! Thank you!

How is he doing now, hope he's fine
Do they behave like plane doors😂
Thank you so much.Very informative❤
Thank you so much for the video it’s really helpful.
You're welcome!
Love these breakdowns ❤
Please make more videos on cardiology like mitral stenosis mitral regurgitation aortic stenosis aortic regurgitation
Thank you for watching! I've got a video on Heart Murmurs where I go into each of those- hopefully will be useful to you!
Thank you sooo much!! This was so helpful!!
Thank you so much for making this easy!
Great video cardiovascular Pb coder this is well done very helpful!
Thanks ❤ you have pdf of this ?
Thank you so much boss,🎉

Thank you 🙏
Why is the whole thing purple
Thank you so much
Thank you 😊
You're welcome!
Thankyou sir ❤️
But some blood gets into the pulmonary artery so that blood is used to grow the lung buds
PDA will lead to remodeling of the right ventricle
Excellent sir 💯
Awesome 👍
Thanks!
Great
😊😊
