Key Questions in CONGENITAL CARDIAC SURGERY
d) guiding percutaneous device placement for procedures, such
as ASD occlusion, pulmonary valve replacement or transseptal atrial line placement.
Complications associated with TOE are uncommon but can be
serious and include:
a) airway — direct trauma or displacement of the endotracheal
tube by the probe;
b) breathing — compression of airways by the probe, which may
impair ventilation;
c) circulation — arrhythmias that may be induced during probe
insertion, mediated by stimulation of the vagus nerve or
sympathetic chain; d) trauma to the teeth, pharynx, oesophagus or stomach; e) ischaemic injury — which may be caused by pressure and heat
generated from the probe; f) bacteraemia.
270
The risks are reduced by having a dedicated, trained TOE operator,
which also helps to avoid distractions to the anaesthetist from their primary responsibilities.
27 Describe the principles of a thromboelastogram (TEG
A thromboelastogram (TEG®) provides near real-time information
about blood clot dynamics (Figure 15), guiding peri-operative management to avoid excessive transfusion and associated complications. Heparinase samples distinguish the effects of heparinisation,
suggesting protamine rather than coagulation factor use. Temperature-adjusted samples differentiate hypothermia-associated
coagulopathy. A number of quantitative measures are described, including:
a) clot time — which is denoted by the reaction time (R) that
indicates how rapidly a clot is initiated. A prolonged R time
suggests hypofibrinogenaemia or deficient clotting factors.
Fresh frozen plasma (FFP), cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen
concentrate may improve coagulation; b) clot kinetics — which is denoted by the K time and alpha angle
(α) that provide a measure of speed of clot propagation.
Derangement suggests hypofibrinogenaemia or clotting factor

deficiency. This may be corrected with cryoprecipitate, FFP or a specific factor replacement;
c) clot strength — that is defined by:
i) maximum amplitude (MA) — which is predominately a
marker of platelet function. Reduction in MA suggests platelet transfusion may be required;
ii) G — which is a global measure of clot elasticity but
unhelpful in the choice of treatment product;
d) clot lysis — which is defined by the markers of
fibrinolysis (LY30 and LY60). Values >7.5% suggest antifibrinolytics (such as tranexamic acid or aprotinin) may be required.

28 What are the advantages and disadvantages of early
tracheal extubation following surgery for congenital heart disease?
Patients are routinely ventilated following complex cardiac surgery.
Prolonged ventilation increases the risk of complications.

Key Questions in CONGENITAL CARDIAC SURGERY
Pulmonary blood flow, particularly passive flow, such as in a Fontan
circulation, is determined by the pressure gradient between the pulmonary arteries and capillaries. This is reduced by intermittent positive pressure ventilation and a return to spontaneous ventilation improves pulmonary blood flow and cardiac output. Reducing the duration of ventilation is associated with:
a) shorter hospital stay; b) increased patient comfort and parental satisfaction; c) early recovery of communication, feeding, bowel function and
mobility.
Prolonged ventilation is associated with complications, including:
a) ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP); b) subglottic stenosis; c) adverse events, such as accidental extubation, kinking or
obstruction; d) side effects of sedation and neuromuscular blockade, which
are necessary to facilitate toleration of the endotracheal tube.
For some patients, early extubation is inappropriate and a more
gradual weaning from mechanical ventilation is required, including in patients with:
a) prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time; b) significant inotrope requirement; c) significant comorbidities — such as pulmonary hypertension,
heart failure, chronic lung disease or liver failure; d) a high risk of TRALI, acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS) or multi-organ failure (MOF) — who tolerate
reintubation poorly and early extubation may not be helpful.
29 What are the features of an effective handover from
anaesthesia to the paediatric intensive care unit team?
Although personal styles vary, certain key information must be
conveyed in a concise and relevant summary, including:
a) basic patient identifiers, including hospital number, date of
birth, age and weight; b) diagnostic issues, including underlying condition, pre-operative
conditions, previous procedures and allergies;

c) information on the procedure performed, including repair or
palliation, current anatomical and physiological status, presence or absence of residual lesions and their description, relevant information on cardiopulmonary bypass, information regarding the use of blood and blood products, presence or absence of arrhythmias, need for pacing, and position and function of drains;
d) airway issues:
i) ease of mask ventilation and laryngoscopy; ii) endotracheal tube size and depth;
e) ventilator requirements:
i) ventilator mode and airway pressures; ii) oxygen requirement; iii) need for nitric oxide;
f) circulatory issues:
i) site and size of intravascular lines; ii) details of cardiopulmonary bypass, including duration of
bypass, cross-clamp and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest;
iii) inotrope and pacing requirements, including underlying
rhythm and function; iv) use of blood and products and current availability; v) available or outstanding results; vi) use of ultrafiltration;
g) antibiotics, analgesia and fluids administered; h) plans should be discussed, including ideal haemodynamic
parameters;
i) contact details should problems arise.

30 What are the negative effects of poorly controlled
postoperative pain?
Pain stimulates a neuroendocrine stress response with wide-ranging
adverse physiological and emotional consequences. Many effects reflect increased levels of circulating catecholamines, including: a) cardiovascular:
i) increased myocardial workload due to increased heart
rate, SVR, PVR and oxygen requirements; ii) PVR is increased by raised intrathoracic pressure
induced by crying. Shunting may be altered;
b) respiratory:
i) increased atelectasis, increasing the risk of pneumonia; ii) hypocapnia (and altered PVR) with prolonged crying;
274
Key Questions in CONGENITAL CARDIAC SURGERY
c) central nervous system:
i) aversion to future procedures complicating ongoing
care;
ii) impaired communication;
d) general:
i) impaired wound healing due to reduced subcutaneous
oxygen partial pressure;
ii) poor mobilisation, increasing complications and delaying
discharge from ICU and hospital.
31 What systems may be used to ensure quality control in
anaesthesia services for congenital heart disease?
Quality can be defined as “the degree to which health services
increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes and are consistent with current professional knowledge”. Assessing quality requires robust, relevant and measurable
outcomes. The complexity of healthcare makes this difficult. Currently, popular parameters include outcome data, such as mortality, complications and satisfaction surveys. Measuring quality in anaesthesia is challenging. Confounding factors
make identifying meaningful measurable metrics, specific to the delivery of anaesthesia, difficult. Committing to ongoing quality improvement programmes (QIP) leads
to maintenance of high standards. Areas for improvement may be identified from the analysis of adverse events, anecdotal reports or morbidity and mortality reviews. Once a problem has been identified, a proposed standard should be
defined. Data should be collected defining current practice and suggesting improvements. Following any change, the process must be repeated to evaluate
impact (Figure 16). The QIP cycle may have both positive and negative effects:
a) positive — such as identify resource deficiencies or
educational needs to increase efficiency;
b) negative — such as frequent changes in practice come at a
cost, including staff disengagement.
The costs and benefits must be balanced. Identifying key
improvement areas will yield the greatest benefits.

Paediatric cardiac intensive care
Michael J. Griksaitis, Melanie A. Connett
1 What are the principles of practice for a cardiac
intensive care unit?
Cardiac intensive care units are highly specialised units
providing intensive care to a wide range of clinical scenarios and needs. Some hospitals operate specialised cardiac intensive care
(paediatric and adult) and some care for patients with cardiac disease as part of the general intensive care practice. Regardless of the structural model, specialists in cardiac intensive
care are called to deal with a child or adult with a cardiac condition, admitted:
a) with an acute medical problem including stabilisation prior to
cardiotomy;
b) following cardiac operations and/or catheter-based
procedures (diagnostic or therapeutic, electrophysiology interventions);
c) after non-cardiac surgery.
277
This chapter will focus on children with cardiac conditions, with
the principles of intensive care for the adult congenital heart disease population described in the following chapter.

ECG
Invasive arterial pressure
Central venous pressure (CVP)
All patients have a rhythm strip displayed on their monitor, allowing the determination of heart rate and rhythm. Many machines allow for a variety of leads to be selected and can also determine ST segment changes from the baseline.
Invasive arterial lines measure the arterial blood pressure beat-by-beat. The pulse pressure can give an indication of the systemic vascular resistance or diastolic run-off. The pulse pressure variation (change in peak amplitude of the systolic pressure), also known as a ‘swing’, can suggest volume depletion. The trace itself can indicate myocardial contractility; a steep upstroke implies a greater change in pressure per unit of time, which therefore suggests good contractility and vice versa. Cardiac output (CO) can also be calculated from the arterial waveform (see CO monitor). Two invasive arterial lines can be used to monitor for residual gradients across a vessel (e.g. pre- and post-ductal lines following hypoplastic aortic arch repair). The arterial line also allows ease of sampling for arterial blood gases and other blood investigations. Arterial lines are not without risk, particularly in smaller infants. This includes distal perfusion problems.
Internal jugular central venous lines can be transduced to measure the central venous pressure (CVP), which in turn is an estimation of the right atrial pressure and in the absence of tricuspid valve disease is an estimation of right ventricular end-diastolic pressure. The CVP is often used as an indirect measure of preload and volume status. However, tricuspid stenosis/regurgitation will affect the CVP as well as right ventricle disease, such as the restrictive right ventricular physiology. The normal CVP waveform consists of a variety of waves (3 in systole and 2 in diastole), which are altered in the face of arrhythmia or tricuspid valve disease, leading to characteristic changes that can be helpful diagnostically. The CVP line also allows administration of irritant drugs (e.g. vasopressors, TPN) more safely than peripheral access.

Left atrial pressure (LAP)
LA pressure lines are left

following certain congenital cardiac surgical procedures (e.g. arterial switch). The pressure reading is a surrogate marker for the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and gives an indicator of LV preload, contractility and afterload. Normal LAP is slightly higher than the RAP (measured via the CVP) at 5-10mmHg. LAP lines are not routinely left

as they are associated with risks of air entrainment or thromboembolic events directly to the systemic circulation and bleeding on removal. If an air bubble is seen in the line it must be clamped immediately and action taken.

Cardiac output (CO) monitors
This is a standard monitoring tool and uses the transmission of light at two different frequencies through pulsatile tissues to assess the oxygen saturation levels of haemoglobin. The original calibration means that SpO

accuracy is less with extremes of hypoxia (<80%). The pulse oximeter waveform also informs the intensivist to the tissue perfusion; a poor waveform or detection of trace can imply poor pulsatility in the distal tissues. With improving cardiac output and tissue perfusion the pulse oximeter trace improves. Direct arterial blood gas analysis is the most accurate way of determining oxygen saturation levels and is of importance when caring for the single­ventricle cyanotic child for Qp:Qs assessment.
Cardiac output monitoring is a helpful tool to measure the CO and tissue oxygen delivery. Traditionally this was used using pulmonary artery catheters. However, for many reasons this technique is rarely used in the PICU. Modern CO monitors use a variety of methods including pulse pressure analysis, bioimpedance, Doppler measurements or the applied Fick principle to calculate the CO. From these, the machines often give (indexed) recordings of cardiac output, stroke volume, systemic vascular resistance and cardiac contractility. These machines can be inaccurate, so often it is the trends in values that are more helpful and need to be used in conjunction with the clinical assessment of the child.
