PPHN is defined as the failure of normal circulatory transition,that occurs after birth.It is a syndrome characterised by marked pulmonary hypertension that causes hypoxemia and right to left shunting of blood.The clinical clue is the labile hypoxemia out of proportion to the disease process.

Etiology of HRF
SLIDE 11
– neurologic and pharmacologic causes
– RDS, aspiration, pneumonia
– pneumothorax, head position
Not Enough Oxygen In
SLIDE 12
– cardiac – non-cardiac (like PPHN)
– methemoglobinemia – carboxyhemoglobinemia
Oxygen “mal-absorption”
SLIDE 13
– Sepsis – Low flow, high extraction
- acrocyanosis
- hyperviscosity/polycythemia
- extravasated (ie bruising)

SLIDE 40 Hyperoxia Test
- Infant on Room Air, get ABG
- Infant on 100% oxygen, get ABG
- PaO2 unchanged = fixed shunt = CCHD
- Max PaO2 <100 = CCHD
- Max PaO2 >200 = No CCHD
SLIDE 41 Hyperoxia Test
– 8/109 with CCHD had PaO2 > 100mmHg – 7/23 without CCHD (bad RDS etc) had PaO2 < 150mmHg
- Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome > 300mmHg
- TGA, TAPVR > 200mmHg
- Don’t be fooled by early high PaO2s
SLIDE 42
- Don’t do the room air part
– Looking for minimal PaO2 change from 21% to 100% fiO2 – Hyperoxia test developed pre pulse-ox – With pulse-ox you can tell when PaO2s are not changing despite big changes in fiO2 (for sats that are between 70 and 95%) – Probably the norm to have some degree of lung disease at the time of the test anyway
Hyperoxia Test
SLIDE 43 Shunt Curves
Proper
CPAP
hyper- ventilation
SLIDE 44 Thumb Rule to Assess Shunt / PPHN
- Fio 2(%) x 4 optimum pao2
- Fio2(%) x 3 acceptable pao2 with shunt
- Any value of pao2 exceeding 15 to 20 % of this value is a
significant shunt
SLIDE 45 Information Needed
– “comfortably tachypneic and blue”
– differential, delayed
– pre and post ductal, max PaO2
– S2, Murmur
SLIDE 46
– heart shapes
- snowman = TAPVR1
- boot = pulm atresia, TOF, tricuspid atresia
- egg on string = TGA
+ /- pulmonary vascularity
– axis – increased or decreased forces
– the most important test in PPHN
