Truncus arteriosus pediatric nursing NCLEX review over the symptoms, causes, nursing interventions, and pathophysiology.
Truncus arteriosus is a congenital heart defect where there is ONE artery, along with one truncal valve, that connects the right and left ventricles. This truncal artery will function to carry blood to both the lungs and body.
Normally, the heart should be structured where there are TWO arteries. These two arteries are the pulmonary artery and aorta.
The pulmonary artery comes off the right ventricle and carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs. While the aorta comes off the left ventricle and carries oxygenated blood to the body.
However, in this condition one artery is shared by the ventricle along with a truncal valve.
Most cases of truncus arteriosus are associated with a genetic disorder called DiGeorge Syndrome. Truncus arteriosus is relatively rare. According to the CDC.gov, in the United States there are about 300 cases per year.
Symptoms of truncus arteriosus include: cyanosis, increased respiratory rate, heart failure, poor feeding and weight gain, ejection systolic murmur at the left sternal border, and pulmonary hypertension.
Treatment for this condition includes: medications to help heart function since heart failure can occur (this includes Digoxin, ACE inhibitors, and diuretics), and surgery (which is usually performed within the first 14 days of life).
Nursing interventions for truncus arteriosus: this is detailed in the video

Sara thank you for all of your videos , I took the NCLEX three times and I finally passed on the third try.God, along with your videos and with UWORLD prepared me for this hard battle. Sarah, you are one very special person , you explained things very nice in a way that it was easy to understand. I was born is Mexico, and learned English very late in my teenage years, so learning things I have to see pictures and examples in order to comprehend the material. Sarah I hope one day can meet you, but in the mean time, may God bless you and your beautiful family, thank you so so much for your beautiful work and accessible for all students. Thank you.

I was diagnosed with this condition, and I didn't even know what it was until after I had gotten a heart transplant. Thank you for this.

I have a question, what age were you diagnosed with this heart disease? I was diagnosed at 9 days old, because I went into heart and lungs failure. I don't mean any way of hatred or anything, I am asking, as you can only survive a few days as a baby with this condition without surgery.
