Question 8 of 9
What is the most likely diagnosis for this infant?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A 5-day-old with severe heart failure, poor pulses, gallop rhythm, click, and ejection systolic murmur suggests critical aortic stenosis (Choice D). This congenital narrowing obstructs left ventricular outflow, causing heart failure and diminished pulses early in life. Arteriovenous malformation (Choice A) doesn’t cause this cardiac picture. Atrioventricular septal defect (Choice B) presents later with shunts. Coarctation (Choice C) affects lower pulses more. Critical aortic stenosis fits the acute onset and findings.
