Jeffrey P. Jacobs,Thomas Krasemann,Claudia Herbst,Zdzislaw Tobota,Bohdan Maruszewski,José Fragata,Tjark Ebels,Vladimiro L. Vida,Ilkka Mattila,Andrzej Kansy,Boulos Asfour,Jürgen Hörer,Attilio A. Lotto,Murat Çiçek,Petru Liuba,Sven Dittrich,Massimo Chessa,Regina Bökenkamp,Gurleen Sharland,Katarina Hanséus,Nico A. Blom,George E. Sarris +21 more
TL;DR: The European Congenital Heart Surgeons Association (ECHSA-CD) is the second largest clinical pediatric and congenital cardiac surgical database in the world and the largest in Europe, where various smaller national or regional databases exist as discussed by the authors .
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional Echocardiographic and Serum Biomarker Changes Following Surgical and Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Closure in Children
J. V. D. van der Ven,Eva van den Bosch,Vivian P. Kamphuis,Covadonga Terol,Devi Gnanam,Ad J.J.C. Bogers,Johannes M.P.J. Breur,Rolf M. F. Berger,Nico A. Blom,Laurens P. Koopman,Arend D. J. ten Harkel,Willem A. Helbing +11 more
TL;DR: Right, and to a lesser degree left, ventricular performance was reduced early after surgical atrial septal defect closure and biomarkers relating to cardiovascular and immunological processes differed across study time points.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac Function and Serum Biomarkers throughout Staged Fontan Palliation: A Prospective Observational Study
J. V. D. van der Ven,Vivian P. Kamphuis,Eva van den Bosch,Devi Gnanam,Covadonga Terol,Ad J.J.C. Bogers,Johannes M.P.J. Breur,Rmf Berger,Nico A. Blom,A. D. J. ten Harkel,Laurens P. Koopman,Willem A. Helbing +11 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors performed a prospective multicenter observational study in patients undergoing partial (PCPC) or total cavo-pulmonary connection (TCPC) and found changes in ventricular function across the Fontan palliation due to volume unloading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orthostatic stress response in pediatric Fontan patients and the effect of ACE inhibition
Lisette M Harteveld,Nico A. Blom,J. Gert van Dijk,Robert H. A. M. Reijntjes,Paul van Someren,Fabian I Kerkhof,Irene M. Kuipers,Lukas A. J. Rammeloo,Eco J. C. de Geus,Arend D. J. ten Harkel +9 more
TL;DR: Pediatric Fontan patients adequately respond to orthostatic stress with maintenance of blood pressure and cerebral blood flow and sufficient autonomic response and enalapril treatment did not alter the response.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of electroanatomical mapping and VT substrate ablation on primary and secondary prevention ICD indication in patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot
Y Kimura,Justin Wallet,Charlotte Brouwer,R. Bertels,Monica Reina Maria Jongbloed,Mark G. Hazekamp,Nico A. Blom,Katja Zeppenfeld +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the long-term arrhythmic outcome of rTOF patients who underwent EAM and ablation for primary and secondary prevention of ventricular tachycardia (MVT) and sudden cardiac death.
