24. RHEUMATIC FEVER (ACUTE RHEUMATIC HEART DISEASE)

Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) occurs after
acute rheumatic fever (ARF), which is a
postinfectious immune disease secondary
to a streptococcal infection.
RHD affects the valves of the heart, with the
mitral and aortic being the most commonly
affected valves. RHD is more likely to
occur with recurrent episodes.

25. Diagnosis

Diagnosis of ARF is made from the
modified Jones criteria, with a positive
diagnosis requiring two major or one
major and two minor criteria.

26. SYMPTOMS

Carditis: chest pain, shortness or breath, cough,
palpitations with sensation of elevated or irregular
rate or rhythm, anorexia, fatigue, and exercise
intolerance.
Arthritis: occurs in 70% of patients with ARF;
symptoms include joint pain.
Sydenham’s chorea: affects 15% of patients with
ARF; reflects involvement of basal ganglia of central
nervous system; appears ~3 months after
streptococcal infection; symptoms include emotional
liability and loss of attention span.

27. SIGNS

carditis
tachycardia
murmur: mitral insufficiency, relative mitral stenosis,
or aortic insufficiency
congestive heart failure
arrhythmias
pericarditis
arthritis: large joints (knees, ankles, wrists, elbows);
asymmetric and migratory
Sydenham’s chorea: involuntary and purposeless
movements and muscular incoordination; erythema
marginatum: 5%; subcutaneous nodules: <5%.

28. INVESTIGATIONS

Chest radiography: cardiomegaly when carditis is present;
pulmonary venous congestion and/or pulmonary edema may
be present when congestive heart failure occurs.
ECG: sinus tachycardia; PR prolongation with myocarditis;
nonspecific ST-T abnormalities or T wave inversion;
premature atrial or ventricular contractions.
Echocardiography: used to evaluate the presence and
degree of myocardial dysfunction, specific chamber
enlargement
Acute phase reactants: elevated WBC , ESR, CRP.
Streptococcal infection: elevated streptozyme; antistreptolysin O, antistreptokinase, anti-hyaluronidase.

30. MYOCARDITIS

Definition
Inflammation of myocardium in association with
necrosis.
Presentation
Mild to moderate congestive heart failure
(CHF).
Severe CHF or shock.
Non-CHF: arrhythmia, sudden death.
History of prior gastrointestinal or flu-like
illness.

31. SYMPTOMS

Poor feeding or decreased appetite,
shortness of breath or dyspnea, easy
fatigability or general malaise: indicate
CHF.
Palpitations with sensation is
increased, irregular heart rate or
skipped or hard beats; chest pain;
dizziness, presyncope or syncope;
cardiac arrest/sudden death: indicate
arrhythmia.

32. SIGNS

Tachycardia, irregular pulse.
Soft, indistinct heart sounds.
Mitral or tricuspid regurgitation.
Systolic murmur of atrioventricular (AV) valve
regurgitation.
Tachypnea.
Rales: associated with pulmonary edema.
Hepatomegaly.
Hypotension: associated with shock.
Weak peripheral pulses.
Poor perfusion.
Jugular venous distention.
Pallor or cyanosis.

33. INVESTIGATIONS

ECG
Chest radiography
Echocardiography (ECHO)
Radionuclide studies
Laboratory studies
Endomyocardial biopsy

34. ENDOCARDITIS

35. SYMPTOMS

Fever and sweating.
Easy fatiguability, malaise.
Palpitations.
Weight loss and anorexia.
Signs
Fever.
Tachycardia with new (or changing) cardiac
murmur(s).
Splenomegaly.
Embolic phenomena

36. INVESTIGATIONS

Laboratory tests
Blood cultures.
Acute phase reactants
Complete blood count
Urinanalysis: hematuria.
Echocardiography!

37. COMPLICATIONS

Destruction of cardiac valve tissue: can
result in aortic, mitral, or tricuspid
insufficiency; resultant need for cardiac
valve replacement.
Congestive heart failure.
Myocardial abscesses with cardiac
arrhythmias and atrioventricular block.
Systemic embolization: potential for
stroke or cerebral mycotic aneurysm.

38. PERICARDITIS AND TAMPONADE

39. Pericarditis

SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS
Mild to severe pericardial pain on inspiration
or worse on inspiration: may radiate to neck
and shoulders; worse on coughing,
swallowing, or sneezing; improved by
leaning forward.
Fever.
Pericardial, often pleuropericardial, coarse
rub: best heard at left sternal edge with
patient leaning forward
Pericardial effusion: varies from small to
large.

40. Tamponade

Symptoms similar to pericarditis: pain, cough, hoarseness,
tachypnea, dysphagia; malaise, cyanosis, dyspnea, sweating,
anxiety.
Tachycardias.
Low blood and pulse pressures.
Pulsus paradoxus: exaggerated reduction (>10 mm Hg) of
the normal inspiratory decrease in systolic blood pressure;
pulse may disappear on inspiration.
Hypotension: accompanied by signs of low cardiac output
(pallor, diaphoresis, poor perfusion with cool extremities).
Jugular venous distention: may increase on inspiration.
Hepatomegaly.
Muffled heart sounds.
Tachypnea.
Friction rub: heard with small to moderate effusions (may not
be present with
large effusions or tamponade).

41. INVESTIGATIONS

• For any pericardial disease, the underlying
cause must always be sought.

42. Pericarditis

Complete blood count, erythrocyte
sedimentation rate.
Antistreptolysin O titer, antineutrophil factor,
rheumatoid factor analysis.
Cardiac enzyme tests
Paired viral antibody screening:
Mantoux test.

45. A ventricular septal defect

Oxygenated blood is usually shunted from
the left ventricle to the right ventricle.
Mixed blood then flows through the
pulmonary arteries. The incidence is from
1.5:1000 to 2.5:1000 live births.

46.

47. AN ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT

Oxygenated blood is usually shunted from
the left atrium to the right atrium. Mixed
blood then flows to the right ventricle and
into the pulmonary arteries.

48.

49. A PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS

Oxygenated blood from the aorta flows
through the patent ductus arteriosus and
mixes with the unoxygenated blood
flowing to the lungs in the pulmonary
arteries. The incidence is 1:2000 live
births.

50.

51. TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

(1) Right ventricular outflow obstruction,
(2) Ventricular septal defect,
(3) The aorta overriding the ventricular
septal defect.
(4) Right ventricular hypertrophy. The
incidence is 1:2000 live births.

52.

53. COARCTATION OF THE AORTA

Narrowing of the lumen results in
increased systolic blood pressure
proximal to the coarctation and
decreased systolic blood pressure distally.
The incidence is 1:13,000 live births.
