Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition"
DOI: 10.1002/jpen.1029
Abstract: BACKGROUND Underweight infants with single-ventricle cardiac physiology have been shown to have increased morbidity, mortality, and resource utilization. The purpose of this study was to determine whether patients who were overweight, as defined by weight-for-length… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ppedcard.2020.101256
Abstract: Abstract The bidirectional Glenn Shunt (BGS), superior vena cava (SVC) to right pulmonary artery (RPA) is occasionally supplemented with a left modified Blalock-Taussig shunt (mBTS) when PA growth is inadequate. Little is known about hemodynamics… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951121000810
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Systemic ventricular end-diastolic pressure is important in patients with single ventricle heart disease. Predictors of an elevated systemic ventricular end-diastolic pressure prior to bidirectional Glenn operation have been incompletely identified. METHODS All patients who… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icvts/ivx168
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Off-pump bilateral bidirectional Glenn (b-BDG) poses a surgical challenge and may add complexity to the postoperative outcome especially regarding uniformity of the anastomosis and central pulmonary artery growth. Herein, we report early- and mid-term… read more here.

DOI: 10.33963/kp.15939
Abstract: BACKGROUND An additional shunt in single ventricle patients with Glenn anastomosis may increase pulmonary flow at the expense of ventricle volume overloading. The performance of the modification depends on pulmonary resistance, indicating better results in… read more here.
