Abstract:
An Acyanotic Congenital Heart Disease is a type of congenital heart disorder in which the blood is shunted from the left part of the heart to the right part of the Heart. An Ostium Secundum ASD is a hole in the middle of the atrial septum. This results in the mixing of the blood from both sides leading to the inefficient working of the heart. A 23-year-old female patient came to the hospital with chief complaints of breathlessness for a year and palpitations on and off. The vitals of the patient seem to be normal. An echocardiogram reveals that the right atrium is dilated and the interatrial septum has an ostium secundum defect. Doppler Ultrasound shows the presence of mild mitral valve regurgitation. paCO2 is higher than the normal range. Leucocyte count also shows increased levels. From the above clinical investigations, the patient was diagnosed with acyanotic congenital heart disease due to Ostium Secundum atrial septal defect and mild mitral regurgitation. OS-ASD closure was done using the autologous patch made from the pericardium and the mitral valve was repaired. Drugs are given to reduce the signs and symptoms of ASD and to reduce the risk of postoperative complications includes: T. Metolar 100 (Metoprolol), Neb. Levolin (Levosalbutamol), Inj. Heparin and T. Ecospirin (Aspirin). Post-operative treatment includes antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent Infective Endocarditis: Inj. Cefuroxime.
