Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2015
Conjoined twins often have complex cardiac anomalies associated with other congenital defects. The correct cardiac diagnosis delineates the degree of cardiac fusion and the feasibility of separation. The outcome in twins with fused hearts remains poor.

Management of Hemorrhage in Cardiothoracic Surgery
Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2013Bleeding is an important issue in cardiothoracic surgery, and about 20% of all blood products are transfused in this clinical setting worldwide. Transfusion practices, however, are highly variable among different hospitals and more than 25% of allogeneic blood transfusions have been considered inappropriate.

HEURISTICS IN CARDIOTHORACIC SURGERY
ANZ Journal of Surgery, 2008Cardiothoracic surgical operations are complex procedures. Involved are an enormous number of steps that need to be carried out consistently, accurately (as the margin for error in cardiothoracic surgery is small) and in a time‐efficient manner – thus the need for repetition in their performance to achieve excellence.

Sepsis in cardiothoracic surgery
SurgerySepsis is a life-changing condition that can occur in patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery. It is characterized by a dysregulated inflammatory response to infection, often leading to higher rates of organ dysfunction and mortality. The importance of early recognition and prompt intervention in managing sepsis-related complications in ...

Congenital heart disease occurs in around 1% of live births and will be more common in children presenting for surgical correction of other congenital anomalies. Whilst the anaesthetic care of children undergoing cardiac surgery is a highly specialized area of practice, any anaesthetist looking after children and young adults will encounter patients ...
