Environmental Modulation of Physiological Parameters in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit After Extracorporeal Cardiac Surgery

open access: yesNursing in Critical Care, Volume 31, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The paediatric intensive care unit exposes critically ill children to non‐physiological environmental stimuli, such as noise, artificial light and thermal instability, which may interfere with physiological regulation and circadian organization. Aim To examine how environmental conditions in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU),

Transposition of the great arteries

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2011
Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is a complex congenital heart defect usually defined within the group of conotruncal defects. Some astonishing similarities between the spiral pattern of great arteries and the spiral pattern of snail shells and a possible common genetic mechanism of normal and abnormal anatomical aspects of the heart and ...

Transposition of the great arteries

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is a lethal condition without intervention. Cross-sectional echocardiography is the diagnostic investigation of choice. Intravenous infusion of prostaglandin is employed to maintain ductal patency and allow mixing of blood, thus improving tissue oxygenation.

Coronary arteries in transposition of the great arteries

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1994
The topic of coronary arteries in transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is complex and confusing despite having been the subject of several recently published reports. One hundred thirty-three autopsy specimens of uncomplicated TGA were studied, with special attention to methodologic issues in anatomic description and classification.

Transposition of the great arteries in a cat

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1985
Transposition of the great arteries, a congenital cardiac disorder, was diagnosed in a 4-month-old domestic short-haired kitten. Angiography revealed a patent ductus arteriosis, with the pulmonary artery originating from the left ventricle and the aorta originating from the right ventricle. Blood gas analysis suggested a high ventricular septal defect.

Echocardiography of transposition of the great arteries

Cardiology in the Young, 2012
AbstractThe successful diagnosis, surgical planning, and long-term care of children with transposition of the great arteries require high-quality cardiac imaging with echocardiography. Echocardiography must identify the relevant anatomic variants of transposition of the great arteries, such as of ventricular septal defects and aortic arch anomalies ...

Treatment of transposition of the great arteries

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1997
Today, the arterial switch operation is the treatment of choice for patients with transposition of the great arteries. Midterm follow-up confirms the initial hopes for good systemic ventricular function and lack of arrhythmias. A two-stage operation can be performed in patients seen after 1 month of age or in subjects who have had an atrial switch ...
