To determine the feasibility and safety of a simplified high-dose magnesium sulfate infusion (sHDMI) for treatment status asthmaticus.We retrospectively compared 2 different regimens, as adjunctive in asthmatics, using data that were preciously collected. The initial high-dose, prolonged (HDMI) regimen consisted loading dose 75 mg/kg (weight ≤ 30 kg) or 50 > over period to 45 minutes followed by continuous 40 mg/kg/hr an additional 4 hours. This was sHDMI 5 No given patients arm. Obese dosed...
Background/Aim: We previously reported that late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac MRI (CMR) was as high 82% in pediatric patients with COVID-19 vaccine-associated myocarditis (C-VAM) despite mild clinical symptoms and normal left ventricular function. As LGE can be a harbinger for future adverse events including arrhythmias, heart failure or sudden death, we sought to identify predictors C-VAM, specifically assessing troponin screening marker C-VAM at risk myocardial scarring who...
Introduction: Pts with single ventricle (SV) after bidirectional Glenn (BDG) are placed on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) to reduce afterload, improve ventricular performance and allow for decreased systemic pulmonary collateral flow (APC). No large scale data exists support ACEI use in BDG pts accomplish this. We hypothesized that may not perform as predicted. Goals: To determine if decreases APC improves function. Methods: Single center retrospective study of all who...

This study aims to assess the utility of right ventricular myocardial performance index (RVMPI) as a potential echocardiographic tool evaluate and serially follow patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) pulmonary hypertension (PH).We performed retrospective chart review all hemodynamic cardiac catheterizations January 2011 December 2016 in born premature diagnosed BPD up 4 years age-excluding significant congenital heart defects. Echocardiograms within 24 hours catheterization were...

Outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest are poor irrespective the patient age group and circumstances. Survival to discharge after in children is less than 10%. Use extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation increasing has been shown improve outcomes some situations. However, candidacy for such augmentation based on selection, institutional practices, availability an membrane oxygenation center. Often, duration resuscitation, low flow state, presenting pH, circumstances dictate...
Introduction: The Fontan operation results in hemodynamic, anatomic and functional alterations single ventricle (SV) heart disease. Studies have shown that SV patients reduced exercise capacity. We sought to determine hemodynamic associations with capacity our cohort. Methods: performed a retrospective chart review of all born 2002-2012 who underwent palliation followed Surveillance Program. cardiac magnetic resonance (cMR), catheterization (cath), stress test (EST) data were collected....
Introduction: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in pediatric patients with acute myocarditis has been shown to be a risk factor for adverse events. On follow up cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), some show improvement and/or resolution of LGE but others do not. Factors associated residual have not described. Hypothesis: Measurements on initial CMR would degree CMR. Methods: We conducted retrospective cohort study <21 years who underwent within 14 days presentation and returned...
Introduction: Lymphatic subtype as determined by T2-weighted MRI (T2-CMR) after superior cavopulmonary connection (SCPC) is known to predict clinical outcome Fontan. Factors related lymphatic development are not well understood. This study aims identify early predictors of high-risk subtypes. Methods: Retrospective cohort consecutive patients with pre-Fontan T2-CMR from 2017 2021. Patients divided into two groups based on subtype: Group 1 - subtypes 1, 2, and 3; 2 3+ (defined type 3 history...
Abstract Introduction There have been reports of myocarditis following vaccination against COVID-19. We sought to describe cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings among pediatric patients. Methods and Results Retrospective review at a large academic center patients clinically diagnosed with post-vaccine (PVM) undergoing CMR. Data collected included parametric mapping, ventricular function degree late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). Post processing strain analysis was performed using tissue...
