Presentation
[…] if the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. [icd.codes]
Present On Admission POA Help "Present On Admission" is defined as present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurs — conditions that develop during an outpatient encounter, including emergency department, observation, or outpatient surgery [icd10data.com]
Presentation varies with the severity of the obstruction. Critical coarctation of the aorta presents with cyanosis and shock when the ductus arteriosus closes. [ahcmedia.com]
Among the seven patients with no DVT history two presented agenesis of the IVC intrahepatic portion, three presented double IVC, one presented transposition of the IVC and another presented retrocaval ureter. [scielo.br]
Stenosis, or other defects, of valves and/or vessels may also be present. When no other heart defects are present it is called 'simple' TGV; when other defects are present it is called 'complex' TGV. [en.wikipedia.org]

- Anorexia
Poor nutrition related to anorexia, fatigability, vomiting, fluid restriction and frequent respiratory infections also contributes to growth impairment. 11 Systemic and respiratory illnesses increase the body temperature and the metabolic rate. [aafp.org]
- Developmental Delay
Even though most children with congenital cardiovascular defects do not have any mental limitations, some children with congenital cardiovascular defects have developmental delays or other learning difficulties. [healthofchildren.com]
Respiratoric
- Respiratory Distress
Symptoms and Signs Neonates with obstructed pulmonary venous return present with respiratory distress, pulmonary edema, and marked cyanosis. [merckmanuals.com]
Most infants with double aortic arch show signs of severe respiratory distress within the first 6 months of life. A high index of suspicion is required to make the diagnosis. Dysphagia or feeding difficulties may accompany respiratory distress. [ots1.narod.ru]
Infants with CHF typically present with sweating, feeding difficulties, failure to thrive, tachypnea, tachycardia, respiratory distress, wheezing, peripheral edema, hepatomegaly, gallop rhythm, cyanosis or shock. [ahcmedia.com]
He is alert and active in mild respiratory distress, with visible cyanosis. HEENT exam is negative. His heart rhythm is tachycardic. He has a mild right precordial heave with a grade 3/6 ejection murmur at ULSB and a diminished 2nd heart sound. [hawaii.edu]

- Failure to Thrive
[…] to thrive (weight loss or failure to gain weight) abnormal heart murmur sweating, especially during feedings a weaker pulse If you notice any of these signs in your baby or child, call your doctor right away. [kidshealth.org]
Further symptoms include failure to thrive, characteristic heart murmurs, and symptoms of heart failure. The diagnosis is confirmed through visualization of the defect on echocardiography. [amboss.com]

Treatment
Many children with congenital heart defects don't need treatment, but others do. Treatment can include medicines, catheter procedures, surgery, and heart transplants. [icdlist.com]
These may also require a series of treatments about six weeks apart to block all of the abnormal vessels. [hopkinsmedicine.org]
Treatment Reimplantation of coronary arteries Aortocoronary bypass [amboss.com]
However, since most CVMs do not need treatment, or it is delayed until the need for treatment is more obvious, it is now rarely necessary to get angiograms as a first step. [vascularcures.org]
Today, an alternative treatment called embolization provides significant improvements. Embolization Embolization, in which the blood vessels are intentionally closed, is used as a treatment for many vascular malformations. [ucsfbenioffchildrens.org]
Prognosis
Prognosis: Cardiac failure is never seen in fetal life as well as postnatally. [sonoworld.com]
Prognosis is good after surgery. Prognosis is poor in neonates with obstructive TAPVR. Long term follow up is needed to assess restenosis and late arrhythmias. [hawaii.edu]
Heart failure and cardiogenic shock, if untreated Treatment Initially : continuous infusion of PGE1 prior to heart surgery Definite therapy Staged surgical correction in three steps (Norwood, Glenn, and Fontan procedure) Alternative: heart transplant Prognosis [amboss.com]
Absence of a main branch pulmonary artery No treatment required, prognosis good. Absence of a lung (agenesis) Compatible with normal life. C. Pulmonary Arteriovenous fistulas Requires surgical treatment. D. Alteration of Pulmonary Circulation. [anatomyatlases.org]
Frequently a tethering of anterior and/or posterior tricuspid leaflet to RV wall is present. ( Fig. 5 ) These modifications lead to atrialization of a RV part. 1 The atrialized RV/total RV ratio more than 30% indicates severe disease with poor prognosis [tmj.ro]
Etiology
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. [icd10coded.com]
Manifestation code identifies conditions for which it is important to record both the etiology and the symptom of the disease. [books.google.com]

Pathophysiology
Overview of cyanotic congenital heart defects General pathophysiological processes Heart defects may lead to the formation of connections between the right and the left heart ( see “Pathophysiology” in acyanotic congenital heart defects ). [amboss.com]

Prevention
Children’s heart conditions can’t be prevented, but a lot can be done to improve and often completely repair their hearts at any age. [nemours.org]
While they can't be prevented, many treatments are available for the defects and related health problems. [kidshealth.org]
In most cases, transposition of the great arteries can't be prevented. [mayoclinic.org]
