Tunable Blood Shunt for Neonates With Complex Congenital Heart Defects

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Despite advancements in procedures and patient care, mortality rates for neonatal recipients of the Norwood procedure, a palliation for single ventricle congenital malformations, remain high due to the use of a fixed-diameter blood shunt.

Improving surgical outcome following the Norwood procedure [PDF]

Netherlands Heart Journal, 2011
The Norwood procedure consists of three palliative operations, performed in neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Especially the first stage (Norwood I) is associated with the highest mortality rates in paediatric cardiac surgery (up to 25%). During surgery, the aorta is reconstructed and a systemic-to-pulmonary shunt is applied.

Variation in Feeding Practices following the Norwood Procedure [PDF]

The Journal of Pediatrics, 2014
To assess variation in feeding practice at hospital discharge after the Norwood procedure, factors associated with tube feeding, and associations among site, feeding mode, and growth before stage II.From May 2005 to July 2008, 555 subjects from 15 centers were enrolled in the Pediatric Heart Network Single Ventricle Reconstruction Trial; 432 survivors ...

Ascending Aorta Size at Birth Predicts White Matter Microstructure in Adolescents Who Underwent Fontan Palliation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background In neonates with single ventricle, smaller ascending aorta diameter is associated with cerebral white matter (WM) microstructural abnormalities. We sought to determine whether this association persists into adolescence.

Biventricular repair after the hybrid Norwood procedure [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2019
Abstract OBJECTIVES We analysed the outcomes of patients undergoing biventricular repair (BVR) after an initial hybrid Norwood approach as a salvage procedure in extremely sick infants; or as the initial palliation in patients with uncertain feasibility of single-stage BVR due to ...

Current outcomes and risk factors for the Norwood procedure [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2006
Tremendous strides have been made in the outcomes for hypoplastic left heart syndrome and other functional single-ventricle malformations over the past 25 years. This progress relates primarily to improvements in survival for patients undergoing the Norwood procedure. Previous reports on risk factors have been on smaller groups of patients or collected

Hospital Mortality for Norwood and Arterial Switch Operations as a Function of Institutional Volume

, 2008
Regionalization of complex surgical procedures to high-volume centers is a model for improving hospital survival. We analyzed the effect of institutional volume on hospital mortality for the Norwood and arterial switch operations (ASO) as representative ...

Experience with the Norwood procedure without circulatory arrest [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2001
We evaluated a new cardiopulmonary bypass technique that allowed complete avoidance of circulatory arrest and deep hypothermia in the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome.A total of 10 patients were included in this study. The arterial line of the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit was divided in two in a Y shape; one branch was used for ...

Compatibility of Methacrylate Based Resins Controls Interfacial Failure and Toughness in 3D‐Printed Multimaterial Composites

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work shows that the mechanical performance of multimaterial digital light processing (DLP) printed thermoset composites is governed by resin compatibility and interfacial design rather than spatial patterning alone. Brittle and ductile resin combinations produced premature interfacial failure, while graded interfaces and mechanically compatible ...
