Crystallographic defect

Diagnosis and Complication Diagnosis (1,2). Physical examination: CHD could be detected by listening to the child's heart and lungs with a stethoscope. In addition, looking for signs of a heart defect, such as cyanosis, dyspnea, tachypnea, delayed growth, or signs of heart failure. Diagnostic Tests: • Echocardiography Echocardiography is a test that uses sound waves to create a moving picture of the heart. Echo helps the cardiologist in diagnosis, treatment if needed and follow up overtime…

“Tetralogy of fallot is a rare, complex heart defect. It occurs in about 5 out of every 10,000 babies. The defect affects boys and girls equally.” (National Institutes of Health, 2011) Tetralogy of fallot is composed of four defects; 1) ventricular septal defect where there is a hole in the septum separating the right and left chambers, allowing oxygen rich blood to mix with oxygen poor blood. 2) Pulmonary stenosis where the passageway from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery is not able…

information provided to me by David Tidwell. Mr. Tidwell, a hospital social worker, received information from Danielle Knight. I will learn about the family and any issues they may be dealing with. I detected that Mason Knight has a series congenital heart defect. Macy Knight has become hostile and aggressive. Andrew Knight is physically and emotionally…

How much autonomy should a minor have? Should their refusal of life-saving treatment be granted by physicians? These questions arise from the case of Emma Ogden, a twelve year old girl who lived with a congenital heart defect which led to many operations and repeated visits to the hospital. When Dr. Abdul Hamid, the transplant surgeon, told Emma and her parents that her best option would be getting a heart transplant and that even then, her prognosis was grim, she refused. Emma researched her…

Mia's heart for a couple of weeks. He showed it to colleagues for their input and even carried it around in his gym bag for quick reference. Burke finally had the "Aha!" insight. Instead of making an incision on the left side for this type of heart defect, called double aortic arch, he should cut into Mia's chest from the right. Doctors used a 3-D printer to make a model of Mia Gonzalez's heart. Doctors used a 3-D printer to make a model of Mia Gonzalez's heart. "Without the model, I would…

Atrial septal defect (ASD) is an abnormal communication between the atria (McCance, Huether, Brashers, & Rote, 2010, p. 1219). It is considered as the fourth most common congenital heart defect, comprising about 5% to 10% of all congenital cardiac defects. The causes of ASD remains unknown, but it was thought that genetics play a role. A person with no other heart defect, or a small defect (less than 5 millimeters) may remain asymptomatic, or manifest symptoms later in life ("MedlinePlus," 2014)…

Overview: Brachycephalic Airway Obstruction Syndrome, or more commonly referred to as Brachycephalic syndrome or abbreviated BAOS, is a syndrome that leads to respiratory distress in the affected breeds of dogs (CIDD). Brachycephalia is best described as a chondrodysplasia that has been a product of selected breeding of domesticated breeds of dogs and cats (Koch). Breed standards often encourage and require these negative anatomical features, ensuring these abnormalities are continually bred…

Any sort of symptoms depends on the size and the location of the VSD. Small VSDs usually won't cause any type of symptoms, and might close on their own later on. Older kids or teens who have small VSDs that don't close usually have no symptoms other than the heart murmur which is the extra noise and if this is the case visiting a doctor is permitted. Medium and large VSDs that haven't been treated in childhood may cause noticeable symptoms. Babies may have faster breathing and get tired out…

life. A heart murmur is not a disease but can affect the cardiovascular system which may lead to heart problems. Anyone from infant to adults can have a heart murmur. Infants and children may need to have surgery due to atrial or ventricular septal defects. If you have an innocent heart murmur or an abnormal heart murmur you most likely will not have any other signs and symptoms other than the rhythm of your heart beat. If you have a heart…

The primary test showing of an association between naturally visible piezoelectric marvels and crystallographic structure was distributed in 1880 by Pierre and Jacques Curie. Their analysis comprised of a decisive estimation of surface charges showing up on extraordinarily arranged precious stones (tourmaline, quartz, topaz, natural sweetener and Rochelle salt among them) which were subjected to mechanical anxiety. These outcomes were a sound representative for the Curies ' creative ability and…
