Abstract

Defects in the ventricular septum with obstruction to right ventricular outflow encompass a wide anatomic, physiologic and clinical spectrum. Large ventricular septal defects occur with pulmonic stenosis that varies from mild to severe to complete (pulmonary atresia). Small ventricular septal defects occur with mild to severe pulmonic stenosis. The most familiar and prevalent combination is tetralogy of Fallot with the incidence of approximately 0.4 to 0.6 per 1000 live births.The following illustrates four cases of Fallots tetralogy with a wide anatomic, physiologic and clinical variations. The first case is a small ventricular septa defect along with severe pulmonic stenosis, the fourth case, however, comprises a large VSD and pulmonary atresia, while in the others the anatomic variations are in between.Hypoxic spells are important aspects of the history in Fallots tetralogy. Spells are an alarming episode that should be treated as an emergency. Knee-chest position, squatting or sitting with legs drawn underneath can afford to relief dyspnea.The best treatment, however, is surgical treatment, indicated in all patients with Fallots tetralogy. The result of this surgical treatment up to now is very satisfactory.Key Wards: tetralogy of Fallot - pulmonic stenosis - ventricular septal defect - pulmonary atresia - bicuspid a pulmonalis

Abstract

A survey on anemia has been conducted on 94 school children in Yogyakarta of whom 46 were from rural and 48 from urban private elementary schools. The subjects ranged in age from 6 to 12 years. The frequency of anemia showed significant difference between the two groups (p < 0.01). The result showed that 39.13% of the rural and 6.25% of the urban school children were anemic. More girls were anemic than boys, namely 13.83% of the girls and 8.5% of the boys (p < 0.05). Amongst the causes of anemia in the rural area is thought to be worm infestation and other factors enhancing iron deficiency. It is suggested that iron supplement to adolescent girls is important. Key Words: anemia - hemoglobin - anthropometric measurement - nutritional status - iron deficiency

Abstract

Left bundle branch block is very rare in children. A boy, 5 years old with diphtheritic myocarditis had left bundle branch block in ECG pattern during the first days in hospital. He had received basic DPT vaccination 4 1/2 years ago, when his age was three months.The prognosis of left bundle branch block in diphtheritic myocarditis is usually poor. However, as he received DPT vaccination in the last 5 years the prognosis was tending to good. After 11 days hospitalisation, the ECG pattern suddenly reversed to normal. The follow up- through outpatient department has no further complications, despite he discharged with still high LDH serum leveLThe purpose of this study is to report a very rare case, and this case hopefully to be the last diphtheritic disease in Yogyakarta, due to a very good coverage of vaccination.Key Words: diphtheria diphtheritic myocarditis left bundle branch block DPT vaccination LDH enzyme

Abstract

Atrial fibrillation is very rare in children. Two children are described, although both were initially in congestive heart failure due to active carditis and were difficult to manage, but all have completely recovered. In addition to digitalis therapy all cases had quinidine, with therapeutic goal of controlling the heart rate rather than abolishing the fibrillation. One case died at home, 12 days after discharge from hospital and one recovered from fibrillation until now.Mitral and tricuspidal an nuloplasty have been performed to the second case, and the result is very satisfactory.Key Wards: atrial fibrillation — rheumatic hear t diseases — rheumatic fever— congestive heart failure — quinidine therapy

Abstract

In twenty four children an episode of supraventricular tachycardia occurred before 15 years (median age 12 months). Fourteen male and 10 female children were reviewed, of which one had a congenital heart disease. Lown-Ganong-Levine syndrome was present on surface ECG in 1/24 (4 per cent). Forty six per cent of children were undernourished as determined by the weight to height ratio according to the WHO criteria (1983), and 58 per cent of them were anemic, according to the WHO criteria (1972). All children have had fever, mostly above 38.5° C. In ten children with an SVT episode the serum enzyme level, was also studied, i. e. the serum glutamine oxalo-transaminase (SCOT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatinine phosphokinase (CPK). Five out of 11 children had a high serum enzyme level, ranging 25-68 U/dI (mean: 40.88 ± 16.30) for GOT, 315 889 U/dI (mean: 482 ± 232.53) for LDH, and 57-581 U/d1 (mean: 251.33 ± 287.02) for CPK, instead of a normal level range of 1-19 U/c11, 80-240 U/dl and 0-50 U/dl respectively. It is concluded that the episode of SVT often occurs in children with infection, especially gastrointestinal intention, meningitis, encephalitis. bronchopneumonia and septicemia. Fever, undernutrition and anemic status are considered as precipitating factors. Preexitation syndromes, such as WPW and LGL syndromes, were infrequently found. Digitalis treatment has to be changed with other preparations which are often used such as calcium antagonist or ATP, especially for patients who do not respond to digitalis. Physicians who work in the surgery department, should be aware of an SVT episode, especially if the children have fever, undernutrition and anemia. Key Words: supraventricular tachycardia - anemia - undernutrition - WPW syndrome - LGL syndrome

Abstract

The relationship between blood pressure and body weight, body height and upper arm circumference was studied in 506 school children, consisting of 227 boys and 279 girls, aged 6-14 years. Blood pressure was measured by using mercury sphygmomanometer. measurements were conducted once in the sitting position, and the subjects were selected at random from 7 000 school children in the district of Sewon, Bantul, Yogyakarta. The results found showed that there are correlations between either systolic or diastolic blood pressure with body weight, body height and upper arm cir cumference, especially in the ages of 15 co 14 years. Key Words: blood pressure - anthropometric measurements - school children - nutrition —body mass

Abstract

The diagnosis of complete heart block is based on electrocardiogram. There would be few or even no cases missed if electrocardiograms were made of all slow heart rate infants and children. The history, physical signs, and X•ray would lead to the recognition of congenital and acquired complete heart block as an isolated, uncomplicated, anomaly. Incomplete history in healthy asymptomatic older children may cause difficulty in differentiating congenital or acquired origin.The conduction defect is usually discovered accidentally in healthy, asymptomatic children. Adams-Stokes syncopes rarely happen, even in the young. An obstetrician may detect a slow fetal heart rate, in which fetal electrocardiography and echocardiography have diagnostic value. A history of maternal lupus (SLE) or collagen disease or connective tissue disease (CTD) is another-major important diagnostic. The arterial pulse is very slow, the pulse amplitude wide and rhythm regular, The jugular venous pulse is intermittent cannon waves due to independent A waves which are asynchronous with and more rapid than the carotid pulse.The diagnosis is confirmed by electrocardiogram, the P waves and QRS complexes have no constant relation. The QRS duration is normal if the heart beat is initiated high in the His bundle and prolonged if the pacemaker is located below it.The treatment is directed especially to Adams-Stokes syncope. Digitalisation and other anticongestive measures may be indicated if cardiac failure occurs. In patients with recurrent Adams•Stokes attacks, resting ventricular rate of 40 beats per minute or less probably should be paced.The prognosis for congenital and acquired heart block is usually favourable.Key Words: heart block -- a-v block -- congenital heart disease -- acquired heart disease --rheumatic heart disease

Abstract

More than 40 years ago T. Duckett Jones published a set of guidelines for the diagnosis of acute rheumatic fever that became known as the Jones criteria. The criteria became widely used throughout the world and provided a uniform diagnostic reference for national and international epidemiologic, prevention and treatment studies.Although the basic concepts proposed by Jones have been retained, modifications of the original criteria should be done to simplify the criteria in order to be used as a diagnostic tool at the primary health care, type D and C hospitals and for surveillance. These new simple diagnostic instruments should have good sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values using Jones criteria as gold standard.Eight criteria have been considered as a new simple 'diagnostic instrument, with various sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive and negative predictive values. The optimum result of this diagnostic test is in the eight criteria, i. e. the criteria of specific murmur.Key Words: rheumatic fever -- cardiomegaly -- heart failure -- Jones criteria -- specific murmur
