Soft systolic ejectionmurmur (Grade 2 to 3) in the pulmonary area at the upper left sternal border. A diastolic rumble over the left lower sternum because of increased flow through the tricuspid valve in those with a large shunt.[patient.info]
Upon auscultation of the heart sounds, a systolic ejectionmurmur may be heard that is attributed to the pulmonic valve, due to the increased flow of blood through the pulmonic valve rather than any structural abnormality of the valve leaflets.[en.wikipedia.org]
Ellis van Creveld syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder associated with skeletaldysplasia characterized by short limbs, short ribs, postaxial polydactyly, dysplastic nails and teeth, and a common atrium, occurring in 60% of affected individuals[emedicine.medscape.com]
Initial transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) was normal, however a follow up TTE showed significant atrial R- L shunt with agitated saline injection.[onlinejacc.org]
Contrast echocardiography with injection of agitated saline through a peripheral venous line can assist in the diagnosis of ASD in patients with restricted acoustic windows. [ 8 ] MRI and CT Cardiac MRI can be used to accurately define the anatomy of[patient.info]

If agitated saline is injected into a peripheral vein during echocardiography, small air bubbles can be seen on echocardiographic imaging. It may be possible to see bubbles travel across an ASD either at rest or during a cough.[marmur.com]

The diagnosis can be made by injecting contrast agent into left upper extremity; coronary sinusopacification precedes right atrial opacification. Genetics ASD may occur on a familial basis.[emedicine.medscape.com]
Decisive for the request for second level tests was the basic electrocardiogram, which presented a right ventricular conduction delay of the incompleterightbundlebranchblock type, with rsR’ pattern in lead V1 and auscultation, performed systematically[minervamedica.it]
ECG incompleterightbundlebranchblock (RBBB morphology with QRS duration between 110-120 ms) increased specificity with crochetage sign in the inferior (II, III, aVF) leads right precordial (V1-3) "defective T waves" describes biphasic morphology,[radiopaedia.org]
Incompleterightbundlebranchblock and right ventricular enlargement were found in all cases, as was cardiomegaly with increased vascular markings were found in all cases.[paediatricaindonesiana.org]
Investigations ECG ECG may be normal in infants and children with small shunts Typical findings include a tall P wave indicating right atrial enlargement, incompleterightbundlebranchblock pattern (rsR' in V1), and right axis deviation.[patient.info]
A common finding in the ECG is the presence of incompleterightbundlebranchblock, which is so characteristic that if it is absent, the diagnosis of ASD should be reconsidered.[en.wikipedia.org]

A health care provider may recommend the atrial septal defect be closed for a child with a large atrial septal defect, even if there are few symptoms, to prevent problems later in life.[cdc.gov]
For a while after the procedure, your child might also need antibiotics before certain medical and dental procedures to help prevent an infection of the heart valves.[hopkinsmedicine.org]
Prevention In most cases, atrial septal defects can't be prevented. If you're planning to become pregnant, schedule a preconception visit with your health care provider. This visit should include: Getting tested for immunity to rubella.[mayoclinic.org]
