  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK554495/

  Tricuspid atresia is a congenital heart defect that results in cyanosis due to the absence of communication between the right atrium and ventricle caused by the complete agenesis of the tricuspid valve. This condition has several subtypes with varied clinical presentations determined by the extent of pulmonary blood flow. […] Without intervention within the first year of life, tricuspid atresia carries a high mortality rate. […] Patients often present with cyanosis in the newborn period, especially after the closure of the ductus. […] Patients with a VSD and without PS often experience substantial pulmonary blood flow. Such cases could be missed at birth, as these individuals do not present with cyanosis. The condition may become apparent when pulmonary vascular resistance drops, leading to pulmonary overcirculation. This condition manifests with signs and symptoms of heart failure, such as tachypnea or respiratory distress, poor feeding, and impaired growth.

  https://nortonchildrens.com/services/cardiology/conditions/congenital-heart-disease/tricuspid-atresia/

  Tricuspid valve atresia is a congenital heart defect in which the heart’s tricuspid valve doesn’t develop. This means that blood can’t flow from the heart’s right atrium (upper receiving chamber) to the right ventricle (lower pumping chamber) as it should. Because of this, the right ventricle does not properly develop prior to birth. Therefore, the child will have a single functioning left ventricle as their only way to pump blood to their body and lungs. […] A baby born with tricuspid atresia often has serious symptoms soon after birth because blood flow to the lungs is much lower than normal. […] A newborn with tricuspid atresia usually will: Have bluish skin (cyanosis), Breathe fast, Have problems feeding, Get tired quickly when feeding, Be less active than most babies. […] Treatment for tricuspid valve atresia can improve the baby’s condition, but it can’t make the heart work like one without a defect. A child born with tricuspid valve atresia will regularly see a pediatric cardiologist throughout childhood and as an adult.

  Tricuspid atresia symptoms are usually seen soon after birth. Symptoms of tricuspid atresia may include: […] People with tricuspid atresia can’t get enough oxygen through the body. So they tire easily and they are often short of breath. Their skin and lips may look blue or gray. […] Some people with tricuspid atresia also develop symptoms of heart failure. Heart failure symptoms include: […] Tricuspid atresia restricts blood flow from the heart to the lungs. The right lower heart chamber is small and underdeveloped. A life-threatening complication of tricuspid atresia is a lack of oxygen to the body’s tissues. This condition is called hypoxemia. […] Prompt treatment greatly improves the outcome for babies with tricuspid atresia. But complications may develop later in life. Complications of tricuspid atresia may include: Easy tiring during activity, Irregular heart rhythms, Kidney or liver disease, Heart failure.

  https://www.cincinnatichildrens.org/health/t/tricuspid-atresia

  Tricuspid atresia is a type of congenital (a condition you are born with) heart disease. In this disease, the valve between the right atrium and right ventricle doesnt develop. […] The signs and symptoms of tricuspid atresia depend on the presence and size of the ventricular septal defect and the relationship of the great arteries. […] In this case, the newborn baby with tricuspid atresia will have a low oxygen level and a dusky, blue color, called cyanosis. This cyanosis may be noted at birth or it may be noticed after several days when the ductus arteriosus closes. As the ductus closes, the cyanosis worsens. If the cyanosis is severe enough, the baby will develop symptoms of poor oxygenation. This may be fast breathing or poor feeding. […] Occasionally, there is an increased amount of blood flow to the lungs. This baby may have little to no cyanosis. They will likely develop congestive heart failure. Pulmonary edema (swelling in the lungs) can develop and cause the baby to breathe harder. The combination of increased heart and lung work uses large amounts of calories and results in congestive heart failure (CHF).

  Babies born with tricuspid atresia will show symptoms at birth or very soon afterwards. They may have a bluish skin color, called cyanosis, because their blood doesn’t carry enough oxygen. Infants with tricuspid atresia can have additional symptoms such as: […] Babies born with tricuspid atresia will show symptoms at birth or very soon afterwards. During a physical examination, a doctor can see the symptom or hear a heart murmur when listening with a stethoscope. A heart murmur is an abnormal „whooshing” sound caused by blood not flowing properly. […] Infants who have these surgeries are not cured; they might have lifelong complications. If the tricuspid atresia is very complex, or the heart becomes weak after the surgeries, a heart transplant might be needed. Children who receive a heart transplant will need to take medicines for the rest of their lives. The medicines help prevent rejection of the new heart.

Infants with tricuspid atresia can have additional symptoms such as: […] Problems breathing […] Ashen or bluish skin color […] Poor feeding […] Extreme sleepiness. […] During a physical examination, a doctor can see the symptoms, such as bluish skin or problems breathing. Using a stethoscope, a doctor will check for a heart murmur (an abnormal whooshing sound caused by blood not flowing properly), or other sounds that may indicate a heart problem. However, it is not uncommon for a heart murmur to be absent right at birth. […] If a doctor suspects that there might be a problem, the doctor can request one or more tests to confirm the diagnosis of tricuspid atresia. The most common test is an echocardiogram.

  The cohort of infants with decreased pulmonary blood flow encompasses most of the infants with tricuspid atresia. Marked cyanosis and hypoxemia characterize the clinical course. Acidemia may occur if the hypoxemia is profound, and death can ensue. […] Infants with increased pulmonary blood flow have an associated unrestrictive ventricular septal defect and transposed great vessels. They present with severe congestive heart failure and benefit from digitalis and diuretic therapy until an operative intervention can be undertaken to restrict the pulmonary blood flow. […] The intelligent application of palliative procedures to control the amount of pulmonary blood flow in this lesion improves the survival of infants with tricuspid atresia. With standard palliative procedures, 50% of these infants can survive into their teen years.

  Many babies born with tricuspid atresia also have a hole between the lower heart chambers. This hole is called a ventricular septal defect (VSD). If this occurs, some blood can flow through the hole directly to the main lung artery. The amount of blood going to the lungs depends on the size of the VSD and whether the pulmonary valve is narrowed. If the VSD is large, too much blood can move to the lungs.

  Tricuspid atresia is a rare type of congenital heart disease in which the tricuspid valve is missing, abnormally developed or blocked by a solid sheet of tissue. The defect blocks blood flow from the right atrium of the heart to the right ventricle of the heart. As a result, the right ventricle tends to be very small and underdeveloped (hypoplastic). […] Adults, who had corrective heart surgeries as infants, may develop problems with their heart functioning later in life. Over time, the surgical treatments that were used at infancy to repair the heart defect may leave scar tissue behind, increasing the chances of abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmia), and of developing a focus for subacute endocarditis.

  https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/158359-overview

  Tricuspid atresia is the third most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease, with a prevalence of 1.03 per 10,000 live births. The deformity consists of a complete lack of formation of the tricuspid valve with absence of direct connection between the right atrium and right ventricle. […] The anomaly is congenital and is evident at birth. […] Depending on the degree of obstruction and associated anomalies, tricuspid atresia may be lethal at birth. Without repair, the patient rarely survives to adulthood. […] The 1-year survival rate after the Fontan operation is 85%; the 5-year survival rate is 78%. Because the procedure eliminates cyanosis, polycythemia and left ventricular volume overload are relieved; therefore, this population can be expected to live longer.

  Tricuspid atresia is a critical congenital heart defect (critical CHD) that also can be detected with newborn screening using pulse oximetry (also known as pulse ox). Pulse oximetry is a simple, painless bedside test to estimate the amount of oxygen in a babys blood. The test is done using a machine called a pulse oximeter, with sensors placed on the babys skin. Low levels of oxygen in the blood can be a sign of a critical CHD. Newborn screening using pulse oximetry can identify some infants with a critical CHD, like tricuspid atresia, before they show any symptoms.
