Abstract Aims The extracardiac conduit-Fontan (ECC) has become the preferred technique for univentricular heart palliation, but there are currently no data on incidence of long-term arrhythmias. This study investigated arrhythmias and relation to single ventricle morphology in follow-up (FU) ECC. Methods results All patients with ECC performed our Centre between 1987 2017 were included (minimum FU 5 years). Of 353 consecutive patients, 303 [57.8% males, aging 8–50 (median 20) years at last...
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is an important cause of acute neurological damage in newborns at (or near) term. Several trials recent years have shown that moderate hypothermia by total body cooling or selective head effective intervention to reduce mortality and major disability infants survived a perinatal hypoxic-ischemic attack. Follow-up these patients very establish neurodevelopmental outcome, specific markers can lead us detect predicting sign for good poor outcome. We...
In sub-Saharan Africa, newborns and children continue to suffer from insufficient access early diagnosis antiretroviral (ARV) treatments. A survey had been conducted in Burkina Faso, Ghana Ivory Coast, January 2010 February 2011 identify the major challenges regarding HIV prophylaxis treatment of western Africa. The results this highlight that only a small proportion HIV-exposed receive ARV prophylaxis. However, problem is often not perceived at national level. could be faced by improving...
Advancements in early diagnosis and paediatric cardiac surgery have improved the long-term survival of patients with congenital heart disease, necessitating a thorough assessment their health-related quality life (HRQoL). This study aimed to assess HRQoL coarctation aorta (CoA) (both as reported by caregivers), evaluate associated factors. Patients aged 5-18 years diagnosed CoA parents were enrolled at Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital between September 2016 December 2017. Socio-demographic...
<h3>Background</h3> Hypokalaemia (HK) is found in up to 20% of people with eating disorders and a clinically relevant electrolyte abnormality, since it can cause life-threatening conditions, such as cardiac arrhythmias, myopathy, rhabdomyolysis, nephropathy. HK usually develops result diuretic improper use gastrointestinal losses. This report describes teen girl severe HK. A thorough medical history proper laboratory tests allowed an early accurate diagnosis treatment. <h3>Clinical case</h3>...
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Arrhythmic complications, especially tachycardias, represent a common and important comorbidity during long-term follow up (FU) in patients with Fontan palliation for complexes congenital heart diseases (CHDs) univentricular hearts. Surgical technique has evolved from direct atrio-pulmonary connection via the intracardiac lateral tunnel to latest extracardiac conduit (ECC) procedure. Despite its shorter FU compared...
