Impact of Ventricular Morphology on Myocardial Deformation in Patients with Single Ventricle
Introduction: Functional single ventricle represent a heterogeneous group of anomalies sharing a common feature which is a functional single cardiac chamber.

Background Multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) angiography is the gold standard imaging modality to evaluate the patency of Glenn shunt and the presence of veno–veno collaterals.

Impact of home monitoring program on interstage mortality after the Norwood procedure
ObjectiveWhile early outcome after the Norwood operation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome has improved, interstage mortality until bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt (BCPS) remains a concern.

Abstract Background/Purpose Pregnant people with Fontan circulation have high rates of fetal growth restriction (FGR) and preterm birth (PTB). The mechanisms underlying these complications are poorly understood. Methods Pregnancies occurring in individuals with Fontan circulation cared for in a single Cardio‐Obstetrics program were identified ...

Veno-venous shunt-assisted cavopulmonary anastomosis
Objective : The bidirectional Glenn shunt is commonly performed under cardiopulmonary bypass for conditions that lead to a single ventricle repair. We report our experience of bidirectional Glenn shunt done without cardiopulmonary bypass.

Catheter hemodynamic assessment of the univentricular circulation
Children with very complex congenital heart disease not amenable to biventricular repair are increasingly being considered for a palliative univentricular care pathway.

Clinical and Imaging Predictors of Poor Prognosis in Ebstein Anomaly
Abstract Ebstein anomaly is a rare congenital heart condition characterized by the partial or complete absence of tricuspid valve delamination, a variable degree of “atrialization” of the right ventricle, and a redundant anterior leaflet with fenestrations.

Utility of the Bidirectional Glenn Shunt
Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a significant cause of childhood morbidity and mortality worldwide. Bi-directional Glenn Shunts (BDGS) form part of the surgical strategy used to treat CHD; no data exists on BDGS usage in the study locality.

ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

Determinants of cardiac output in health and heart failure
Abstract Sustained physical exercise depends on delivery of oxygenated blood to exercising muscle. At least among healthy individuals, bulk transport of blood is tightly matched to metabolic demand, such that cardiac output increases by ∼6 L/min for every 1 L/min increase in oxygen uptake. Multiple factors contribute to the regulation of cardiac output,
