Congenital Heart Defects

Ria Mulherkar
About this episode

In this episode, we will go over congenital heart defects in a Q&A format, focusing on the presentation and major risk factors of each. The acyanotic heart defects include VSD, ASD, and PDA. The cyanotic heart defects include Truncus Arteriosus, Transposition of the Great Vessels, Tricuspid Atresia, Tetralogy of Fallot, and TAPVR. We’ll also cover a mix of a few other congenital heart defects that don’t fall into the cyanotic/acyontic delineations. We’ll leave these as a surprise for the end!
