The most dangerous type of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is _____cardiac.

In a patient undergoing "tet-spells", _____ is helpful in preventing collapse of the pulmonary circuit, in case the child is dehydrated

The 5 T's of Right-to-Left Shunts1. _____2. Transposition3. Tricuspid atresia4. Tetralogy of Fallot5. TAPVR

Hint: 1 vessel

_____ is a congenital heart disease that is characterized by: 1. Pulmonary infundibular stenosis 2. Right ventricular hypertrophy 3. Overriding aorta 4. Ventricular septal defect (VSD)

In TGA, the first step is to create a _____ followed by an atrial septostomy to improve oxygenation

Hint: shunt

Tetralogy of Fallot results in a _____-to-left shunt with early cyanosis

Right-to-left shunting may be seen across a ductus arteriosus in the presence of _____ductal coarctation of aorta, leading to differential cyanosis

_____ is a congenital heart disease characterized by a single large vessel arising from both ventricles before eventually splitting X-ray shows: "sitting duck heart" appearance
