Transposition of great vessels are usually corrected by an arterial switch operation. This operation is often done during the first week of life as surgical delays lead to deconditioned left ventricle. On the other hand early surgery carries also risks as neonatal physiology may have problems adapting to an intervention under cardiopulmonary bypass, possible pulmonary hypertension. Arterial switch operation between 2008 and 2020 done at our center will be reviewed. Primary outcome will be mortality or severe postoperative morbidity. Patients will be divided in 2 groups according to the presence or absence of the primary outcome. After propensity score matching, they will be analysed according to the timing of operation.
The purpose of this study is to mesure the prevalence of severe sensory integration disorders in babies after one week of their heart surgery.
Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is a complex cyanotic congenital heart disease and patients suffer from a high mortality rate within one year of age without appropriate management. The therapeutic effect of arterial switch operation (ASO) is satisfactory with low surgery mortality of 2-5%, and thus, has become the treatment of choice for surgical correction of d-TGA. Outcomes of ASO in TGA in china are rare. This is a retrospective study reporting the outcomes of ASO in TGA.
Patient-specific, 3D printed models have been utilized in preoperative planning for many years. Among researchers and clinicians, there is a perception that preoperative exposure to 3D printed models, derived from patient images (CT or MRI), aid in procedural planning. 3D printed models for heart surgery have the potential to improve a clinician's preparedness and therefore may reduce surgically-related morbidity and mortality. This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate whether pre-procedural planning of surgeons exposed to a patient-specific 3D printed heart model will decrease cardiopulmonary bypass time, morbidity, and mortality.
Celsior® is an organ preservation solution used for the harvesting and the preservation of solid organs. Its use as a crystalloid cardioplegia solution has been established recently. Its main advantage is the long duration of myocardial protection. Compared to the other cardioplegia solutions, it allows a reduced amount of solution administered during the surgery and fewer interruptions during the intervention for the administration of supplemental doses of cardioplegia for long and complex operations. The objective of this register is to compare the safety and the efficacy of Celsior® to the old cardioplegia solution Saint-Thomas used as cardioplegia solution in surgery of the transposition of great vessels, the arterial switch operation.
This prospective study will examine whether transient maternal hyperoxygenation is useful as a diagnostic test to more accurately detect TGA patients with poor vs. good neonatal intra-cardiac mixing of blood, based on the in-utero response to oxygen exposure. This study is Health Canada regulated
This trial will test if adding nitric oxide (NO) gas to the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit in infants undergoing an arterial switch operation (ASO) for Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) changes the incidence of major postoperative adverse events (AEs). Major postoperative AEs include cardiac arrest, emergency chest opening, use of ECMO (machine that acts as an artificial heart and lung during surgery), and death. Participants will be randomised to receive oxygen plus nitric oxide (intervention arm) or oxygen without nitric oxide (control arm) during CPB.
Cardiac denervation is inherent to the arterial switch (ASO) technique for the repair of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) and the long term reinnervation process has not been studied. We sought to describe the reinnervation status of adult patients long after the ASO, to identify areas of myocardial perfusion/innervation mismatch and to assess the relation of innervation status and exercise capacity.
The investigators proposed to review the exercise tolerance, cardiac function, and quality of life in patients born with transposition of the great arteries that have undergone surgery with either the Mustard or Senning procedure. Participants will complete a questionnaire. The investigators will review the participants' recent cardiac function testing which will assess their current health status. These tests include an echocardiogram, a metabolic exercise stress test, cardiac imaging, and a 24-hour Holter monitor. This collection of testing results will be compared specifically with previously acquired data during the first phases of this study (published in 2001 and 2007).
