TL;DR: A vasodilator protocol utilizing milrinone following S1P effectively decreased SVR, improved serum lactate, and decreased postoperative cardiac arrest, highlighting the importance of measuring VO 2 in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence, predictors, and outcomes after severe primary graft dysfunction in pediatric heart transplant recipients
TL;DR: Severe PGD remains an important clinical morbidity in pediatric HT recipients in the current era and is associated with high mortality, highlighting the need for research in preventing and treating PGD in pediatricHT recipients for improving overall post-transplant survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Single Ventricle Lesions Palliated Via the Hybrid Approach.
TL;DR: Overall survival for ECMO support in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome palliated via the hybrid approach is very poor and is worse than 31% survival reported forECMO after conventional stage 1 palliation.
