What is Tetralogy of Fallot? Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a congenital heart condition characterized by four heart abnormalities-stenosis in the right ventricular outflow tract, right ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular septal defect, and aortic override of septal defect. Together, these can cause cyanosis in the newborn.

Thank ypu for helping me understand what i have. I have TOF and had surgery at 10 months old. I will get another surgery soon to widen the pulmonary artery. I go for yearly doctor appointments in the summer and they have all been amazing.

In this flowchart at 4:58 ,it'd have been better if the initial steps were like "increased physical activity --> peripheral vasodilatation--> dec. Peripheral resistance --> more R-L shunt--> dec O2 sat.-->Cyanosis" that could've made the "thinking" more easier too😅😊

Best video of TOF i have seen. I REALLy wish this had been available when i was at uni during my degree several years ago. It messed with my head - but this is the simplest explanation ever!

this video is amazing! i have an assignment where i have to explain Tetralogy of Fallot. this helps me so much, its calmly explained ( a very nice voice to listen to) with very well fitted animations, as a person with ADHD its easy to focus on whats being said because of this. thank you for explaining this congenital heart condition so well!!!

such an insightful video. I have heard that TOF is somehow correlated with DiGeorge and Chromosome 22 deletions and was wondering if you could explain more about those conncetions. Or, are there videos on it too? To recapitulate the pathophysiology of TOF, the pressure difference reverses because it somehow gets too high in the right ventricle, shunting back into the left ventricle, resulting in some quantity that may vary in severity levels of deoxygenated blood pumping out through the left ventricle --> aorta --> systemic circulation, sometimes (in approx what proportion of cases?) results in cyanosis or blue-ish discoloration due to lacking adequate oxygenation of systemic body tissues if i follow you correctly. and, how exactly can squatting can help reverse the condition by elevating systemic pressure and left ventricular pressure because if the RV pressure is high, I do not see how squatting would equilibrate only the LV and not travel through the heart, increased opening or dilatation between the RV and LV

How do babies come to squat in order to relieve a tet spell? Is it instinctive or do they just figure it out? Or does it just happens because they get woozy?
