Elective Non-Urgent Balloon-Atrial Septostomy in Infants with d-Transposition of the Great Arteries Does Not Eliminate the Need for PGE1 Therapy at the Time of Arterial Switch Operation
Katherine L. Zaleski,Carl L. McMullen,Steven J. Staffa,Ravi R. Thiagarajan,Nicola Maschietto,James A. DiNardo,Viviane G. Nasr +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single-center retrospective study was conducted to determine the incidence of balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) in the neonatal d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outcomes of Pediatric Patients Treated With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Intractable Supraventricular Arrhythmias.
Stephanie Ghaleb,Ravi R. Thiagarajan,David S. Cooper,David S. Cooper,Richard J. Czosek,Richard J. Czosek +5 more
TL;DR: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation use for medically refractory supraventricular arrhythmias was associated with a 65% survival to hospital discharge, however, there was a high rate of complications, the presence of which wasassociated with decreased survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early Changes in Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Are Associated With Cardiac Arrest in Children With Congenital Heart Disease
TL;DR: A multivariable model utilizing hourly data from the EHR to predict cardiac arrest in children admitted to a pediatric CICU and found that for every 10% increase in the SpO2-rSO2s difference, the odds of cardiac arrest increased by 40%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Venvenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for cardiac failure? Use with caution.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Monte Carlo Simulation Approach to Optimizing Capacity in a High-Volume Congenital Heart Pediatric Surgical Center
Eleni G. Elia,Shi Ge,Lisa Bergersen,Ravi R. Thiagarajan,Jason M. Thornton,Lynn A. Sleeper,Francis Fynn-Thompson,Derek Mathieu,Peta M. A. Alexander +8 more
TL;DR: Use of strategic scheduling may improve surgical capacity and reduce the number of annual cancellations, and the reduction of peaks and valleys in the weekly census corresponds to a reduction of underutilization and overutilization of the system.
