RESUMO

Neonates who require surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD) frequently have difficulty with oral feeds post-operatively and may require a feeding tube at hospital discharge. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of oral or nasal intubation route on feeding method at hospital discharge. This was a non-blinded randomized control trial of 62 neonates who underwent surgery for CHD between 2018 and 2021. Infants in the nasal (25 patients) and oral (37 patients) groups were similar in terms of pre-operative risk factors for feeding difficulties including completed weeks of gestational age at birth (39 vs 38 weeks), birthweight (3530 vs 3100 g), pre-operative PO intake (92% vs 81%), and rate of pre-operative intubation (22% vs 28%). Surgical risk factors were also similar including Society of Thoracic Surgeons-European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery category (3.9 vs 4.1), shunt placement (32% vs 41%), cardiopulmonary bypass time (181 vs 177 min), and cross-clamp time (111 vs 105 min). 96% of nasally intubated patients took full oral feeds by discharge as compared with 78% of orally intubated infants (p = 0.05). Nasally intubated infants reach full oral feeds an average of 3 days earlier than their orally intubated peers. In this cohort of patients, nasally intubated infants reach oral feeds more quickly and are less likely to require supplemental tube feeding in comparison to orally intubated peers. Intubation route is a potential modifiable risk factor for oral aversion and appears safe in neonates. The study was approved by the University of Virginia Institutional Review Board for Health Sciences Research and was retrospectively registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05378685) on May 18, 2022.

RESUMO

Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) is complicated in patients without adequate femoral or internal jugular vascular access. Transhepatic vascular access has been shown to be safe and effective across a spectrum of diagnostic and interventional procedures. Closure of the hepatic venous tract can be accomplished with a multitude of readily available vascular occlusion devices. The rates of major adverse events are low: 5% to 8% with hemoperitoneum and complete heart block are most significant. To our knowledge, this is the first report of using transhepatic access for TPVR; closure of the hepatic venous tract was achieved with an Amplatzer vascular plug type II.

RESUMO

Surgical procedures routinely challenge the pediatric host defense mechanisms. In normal situations the innate and adaptive immune mechanisms are prepared for this challenge. However, in many circumstances these mechanisms are compromised. In neonates, particularly premature infants, the immune system is not fully developed. The etiology of the immunocompromised state in pediatric patients may be primary (SCID, hypogammaglobulinemia) or secondary (cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease). Knowledge of the basic elements of the immune system and how these elements are altered in the immunocompromised patient will help guide peri-operative management.
