Outcomes
2010, NEJM – SVR trial
Landmark NIH-funded trial of 555 newborn infants comparing outcomes following S1P with BTS vs Sano conduit. Most of the following studies use data from this cohort of well-studied patients.2010, Circulation – Enalapril does not change interstage survival or growth following S1P
2010, JTCVS – Preoperative risk factors
2011, Ped Card – Celiac artery flow better in Sano than BTS
2012, Circulation – 14 month SVR followup
2012, Circulation – Shunt type does not impact ventricular size at 14 month
2012, JACC – Current outcomes in HLHS
2012, JTCVS – Causes and timing of death in SVR trial
2012, JTCVS – Differences in postoeperative care following S1P
2012, JTCVS – Low center volume, open sternum affect survival to hospital discharge
2013, ASE – Retrograde flow in BTS and RVPAS does not affect clinical outcomes
2013, Circulation – 18% incidence of recurrent arch obstruction following S1P
2013, JTCVS – Timing and outcomes of BDG in SVR trial
2014, J Peds – Feeding practices following S1P
2016, JAHA – Digoxin reduces interstage mortality
Physiology
2012, Anesth Analg – Mathematical modeling of DO2 and QpQs
2000, ATS – SvO2 of 30% is anaerobic threshold
1998, Circulation – Theoretical DO2 calculations following S1P
2004, Circulation – Alpha blockade decreases postoperative cardiac arrest
Technical Aspects
1986, JTCVS – Early lessons learned S1P
1997, ATS – Coronary obstruction, Sano obstruction causes of death in S1P
2003 – Sano technical description
2012 – Description of the ‘dunk’ technique
2017, ATS – FVH improves PA growth
2017, Card Young – FVH improves PA growth
2017, JTCVS – RVPAS to right of aorta may decrease shunt revisions
Historical Papers
1983, NEJM – Norwood
This is the original description of the Norwood procedure performed at Boston Children’s Hospital.
2003, JTCVS – Sano
The original description of the Sano modification to the Norwood Procedure.1975, Ann Thor Surg – Stansel
The original description (one of 3) of a proximal anastamosis between the ascending aorta and pulmonary artery, in this case used as a treatment for dTGA. Damus, Kaye, and Stansel all submitted separate papers describing the same thing in 1975, so we credit all 3 of them. Damus’ paper was rejected. When he read Stansel’s accepted paper, he wrote this letter to the editor…1975, Ann Thor Surg – Damus
Damus’ letter to the editor re: his rejected paper.
