As the management of congenital heart disease evolves, the use of cardiac catheterization, both as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool, has significantly increased. Increasingly complex interventions are being performed on younger and sicker children. Therefore, anesthesia providers in the cardiac catheterization laboratory must have a good understanding of each patient's underlying cardiac physiology, the implications of the anesthetic technique on this physiology, as well as the inherent risks and potential complications of the procedure to be performed.

Cardiac Lesions

With the number of patients living with congenital heart disease steadily increasing, relevant training in anesthesia care for these patients is becoming ever more important. Written by experts in the field, this highly illustrated book succinctly reviews the pathophysiology of congenital cardiac lesions along with important anesthetic implications for each. Case scenarios cover patients of wide-ranging ages, with a focus on care in non-cardiac operating room settings, including the general operating room, cardiac catheterization laboratory and radiology. Divided into sections corresponding to the anatomic classification of each cardiac lesion, the book includes keywords for easy cross-referencing. Several lesions have multiple scenarios presented in order to allow readers to learn how to discern more critically ill patients. The stepwise approach to understanding complex lesions provides a readily accessible guide for all anesthesia providers who care for patients with congenital heart disease. The book is also a useful tool for intraoperative teaching.

Specific Impact

Mothers of 25 children with congenital heart disease were interviewed to elicit family reactions to the patient's disorder. Problems for parents included: vague apprehension about the behavior of the newborn, uncertainty about the diagnosis, anxiety about the child's symptoms, fears of death, feelings of guilt, disappointment and irritation with their burden, overprotective attitudes, attempts to provide the child with a normal active life, difficulties with discipline, and various problems related to hospitalization, cardiac catheterization, and heart operation. The physician's role in management of such patients is aided by awareness on his part of the general and specific impact of this handicapping disorder of childhood.
