To determine whether patients undergoing the lateral tunnel and extracardiac conduit modifications of Fontan procedure have better outcomes than a classical atriopulmonary connection.Between 1980 2000, 305 consecutive underwent at our institution. There were 10 hospital deaths (mortality: 3%) with no death after 1990. Independent risk factors for mortality preoperative elevated pulmonary artery pressures (P=0.002) common atrioventricular valve (P=0.04). was taken down during stay in 7...
Abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging scans are common both before and after surgery for congenital heart disease in early infancy. The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate the nature, timing, consequences brain injury a cohort young infants undergoing with without cardiopulmonary bypass.A total 153 at <8 weeks age underwent serial 3 months age, as well neurodevelopmental assessment 2 years age. White matter (WMI) commonest type surgery. It occurred 20% associated less...
We investigated the effectiveness of prophylactic administration recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) for cardiopulmonary bypass surgery in children under 1 year old with congenital heart disease (CHD) a double-blinded, placebo-controlled study. The rFVIIa dose was 40 microg/kg and all patients also received standard haemostatic replacement therapy. primary endpoint time to chest closure from neutralization heparin protamine sulphate as this could be most objectively accurately measured...
Objective Historical cohort studies have reported adverse neurodevelopment following cardiac surgery during early infancy. Advances in surgical techniques and perioperative care coincided with updating of neurodevelopmental assessment tools. We aimed to determine risk factors for impaired at 2 years congenital heart disease (CHD) Design patients undertook a prospective longitudinal study 153 full-term infants undergoing CHD before months age. Infants were excluded if they had genetic...
Since April 1988, we have been able to offer extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) patients who are either failing ventilation or need cardiopulmonary support following cardiac surgery. During this time, supported 211 patients, the majority of whom with Avecor (Affinity, Cardiovascular Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA) spiral wound silicone-membrane oxygenator. Microporous hollow-fibre oxygenators used (18%) at our center. However, due their early failure, they necessitated conversion a...
Antenatal diagnosis of severe congenital heart disease enables planning perinatal care affected infants. Congenital surgery is highly centralised in Australia, and for hypoplastic left syndrome (HLHS) currently takes place at a single institution, order to ensure case volume. The study aims review the impact antenatal on early clinical course infants with HLHS Australia.Retrospective was performed all neonates who were admitted management between 2001 2005 Paediatric Cardiac Surgical Unit,...
