Endocarditis in Bovine Vein Grafts in the Pulmonary Position Placed Surgically & Percutaneously

TL;DR: There is a 7% incidence of IE with the use of BJV grafts in the pulmonary position at mid-term follow-up, though the rate in catheter placed BJV seems 3x higher than surgically placed ones, their cohorts are quite different making this comparison flawed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Norwood With Obstructed Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection and Tracheoesophageal Fistula Repair: Operating Room Delivery.

TL;DR: A baby boy with prenatally diagnosed hypoplastic left heart syndrome variant with obstructed veins was born in the operating room and underwent emergent Norwood operation and repair of obstructed infra-diaphragmatic total anomalous pulmonary venous connection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is the practice of using oversized organs for recipients with elevated pulmonary vascular resistance justified?

TL;DR: In this article , post-transplantation outcomes in recipients with increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in relation to donor size were assessed in the United Network for Organ Sharing database.
Journal ArticleDOI

Up to an Hour of Donor Resuscitation Does Not Affect Pediatric Heart Transplantation Survival.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors sought to determine whether CPR duration impacts post-transplant survival (PTS) by using multivariable and cubic spline regression, and showed that CPR>55 minutes predicted worsened post transplant survival relative to no CPR.
Journal ArticleDOI

In The Era of Outpatient VADs, Is it Time to Reconsider the Practice of Bridging Older Children to Transplant on Outpatient Inotropes?

TL;DR: In this article , the United Network for Organ Sharing was used to identify patients ≤18 years old, weighing >25kg from 2012-2022 who were outpatients at heart transplant, and patients were grouped by bridging modality at HT: VAD, inotropes, or neither (no-support) [n=424 (50%)].
