Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective trial of a pediatric ventricular assist device.
Charles D. Fraser,Robert D.B. Jaquiss,David N. Rosenthal,Tilman Humpl,Charles E. Canter,Eugene H. Blackstone,David C. Naftel,Rebecca Ichord,Lisa Bomgaars,James S. Tweddell,M. Patricia Massicotte,Mark W. Turrentine,Gordon A. Cohen,Eric J. Devaney,F. Bennett Pearce,Kathleen E. Carberry,Robert Kroslowitz,Christopher S. Almond +17 more
TL;DR: The trial showed that survival rates were significantly higher with the ventricular assist device than with ECMO, and serious adverse events, including infection, stroke, and bleeding, occurred in a majority of study participants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Berlin Heart EXCOR Pediatric Ventricular Assist Device for Bridge to Heart Transplantation in US Children
Christopher S. Almond,David L.S. Morales,Eugene H. Blackstone,Mark Turrentine,Michiaki Imamura,M. Patricia Massicotte,Lori C. Jordan,Eric J. Devaney,Chitra Ravishankar,Kirk R. Kanter,William L. Holman,Robert Kroslowitz,Christine Tjossem,Lucy Thuita,Gordon A. Cohen,Holger Buchholz,James D. St. Louis,Khanh Nguyen,Robert A. Niebler,Henry L. Walters,Brian Reemtsen,Peter D. Wearden,Olaf Reinhartz,Kristine J. Guleserian,Max B. Mitchell,Mark S. Bleiweis,Charles E. Canter,Tilman Humpl +27 more
TL;DR: Smaller patient size, renal dysfunction, hepatic dysfunction, and biventricular assist device use were associated with mortality, whereas extracorporeal membrane oxygenation before implantation and congenital heart disease were not.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Urokinase and Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery for Treatment of Childhood Empyema.
Samatha Sonnappa,Gordon A. Cohen,Catherine M. Owens,Carin Van Doorn,John Cairns,Sanja Stanojevic,Martin J. Elliott,Adam Jaffe +7 more
TL;DR: Urokinase is a more economic treatment option compared with VATS and should be the primary treatment of choice for the treatment of childhood empyema, and there is no difference in clinical outcome between intrapleural urokinases and VATS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bridging children of all sizes to cardiac transplantation: The initial multicenter North American experience with the Berlin Heart EXCOR ventricular assist device
David L.S. Morales,Christopher S. Almond,Robert D.B. Jaquiss,David N. Rosenthal,David C. Naftel,M. Patricia Massicotte,Tilman Humpl,Mark W. Turrentine,James S. Tweddell,Gordon A. Cohen,Robert Kroslowitz,Eric J. Devaney,Charles E. Canter,Francis Fynn-Thompson,Olaf Reinhartz,Michiaki Imamura,Nancy S. Ghanayem,Holger Buchholz,Sarah Furness,Robert Mazor,Sanjiv K. Gandhi,Charles D. Fraser +21 more
TL;DR: This limited but large preliminary North American experience with the Berlin Heart EXCOR VAD as a bridge to cardiac transplantation for children of all ages and sizes points to the feasibility of this approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac ECMO for biventricular hearts after paediatric open heart surgery
R R Chaturvedi,Duncan Macrae,Katherine L Brown,M Schindler,E C Smith,K B Davis,Gordon A. Cohen,Victor Tsang,Martin J. Elliott,M R de Leval,Steve Gallivan,Allan Goldman +11 more
TL;DR: In the experience of postoperative cardiac ECMO, the higher survival of patients cannulated in the operating room than in the cardiac intensive care unit is due to early effective support preventing prolonged hypoperfusion and the avoidance of a catastrophic cardiac arrest.
