Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pediatrics the Hygienic and Medical Treatment of Children, Vol. 3 The disease of the circulatory system encountered in early life present certain featured which differ notably from those of similar pathological conditions in adult life. Etiology. - In the adult the pathological conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels may be divided into three groups, as follows: 1. Functional disturbance; 2. infections; 3. degenerative lesions associated with arterial disease. The third group is very important in the pathology of adult life, and includes the conditions primarily due to the wear and tear of life itself, which are represented by arteriosclerosis, and all the degenerative lesions associated with arteriosclerosis, which affect not only the heart, but also the parenchymatous organs throughout the body. This third group is almost non-existent in the pathology of early life. Such pathological conditions as arteriosclerosis, chronic interstitial myocarditis, angina pectoris, aneurism, and "cardio-renal" case, either are not encountered at all in infancy and childhood, or are so rare as to be pathological curiosities rather than conditions which the physician must consider and be prepared to encounter and treat. In the place of this degenerative group, there is in early life another group of diseased conditions which assumes great importance in the diagnosis of cardiac disease. This is the group of congenital cardiac disease. It is true that some children with congenital cardiac disease may live until adult life, but many others die in infancy or childhood, and it is in early life that these lesions are chiefly encountered. The three principal, therefore, into which cardiac disease in childhood may be divided are the following: 1. Congenital lesions. 2. Lesions caused by infections. 3. Disturbances of function. In the second group, there is also a notable difference between childhood and adult life. This is the relatively much greater frequency of acute infections involving the heart in childhood.
