AB Learning  ObjectivesBy  the  end  of  this  chapter  the  student  will  be  able  to:Discuss  common  clinical  associations  of  congenital  heart  disease  (CHD).Understand  the  embryological  basis  for  various  CHDs.Recognize  the  basic  physiological  variations  due  to  CHD.Classify  CHD  into  acyanotic  and  cyanotic  and  further  classify  cyanotic  heart  disease  based  on  the  degree  of  pulmonary  blood  flow.Distinguish  clinical  presentations  of  common  acyanotic  CHD  with  logical  reasoning  for  a  variation  in  their  presentation  and  clinically  differentiate  between  atrial  septal  defect  (ASD),  ventricular  septal  defect  (VSD),  and  patent  ductus  arteriosus  (PDA).Distinguish  between  common  cyanotic  CHD:  tetralogy  of  Fallot  (ToF)  physiology  and  other  cyanotic  heart  diseases  based  on  clinical  presentation  using  clinical  findings  and  common  diagnostic  tools  such  as  electrocardiogram  (ECG),  chest  x-ray  (CXR),  and  echocardiography.Indicate  the  approach  to  a  cyanotic  newborn  and  management  principles.List  the  steps  in  the  treatment  of  CHD  with  congestive  cardiac  failure  (CCF),  and  management  of  a  cyanotic  spell.Enumerate  the  management  options  and  surgical  indications  for  ASD,  VSD,  PDA,  ToF,  and  transposition  of  the  great  arteries  (TGA);  and  provide  a  rationale  and  indications  for  the  Fontan  procedure.
