  • Arterial Switch Operation Surgery Surgical Solutions to Complex Problems
    Pediatric Cardiovascular Arterial Switch Operation Surgery Surgical Solutions to Complex Problems Tom R. Karl, MS, MD The arterial switch operation is appropriate treatment for most forms of transposition of Andrew Cochrane, FRACS the great arteries. In this review we analyze indications, techniques, and outcome for Christian P.R. Brizard, MD various subsets of patients with transposition of the great arteries, including those with an intact septum beyond 21 days of age, intramural coronary arteries, aortic arch ob- struction, the Taussig-Bing anomaly, discordant (corrected) transposition, transposition of the great arteries with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and univentricular hearts with transposition of the great arteries and subaortic stenosis. (Tex Heart Inst J 1997;24:322-33) T ransposition of the great arteries (TGA) is a prototypical lesion for pediat- ric cardiac surgeons, a lethal malformation that can often be converted (with a single operation) to a nearly normal heart. The arterial switch operation (ASO) has evolved to become the treatment of choice for most forms of TGA, and success with this operation has become a standard by which pediatric cardiac surgical units are judged. This is appropriate, because without expertise in neonatal anesthetic management, perfusion, intensive care, cardiology, and surgery, consistently good results are impossible to achieve. Surgical Anatomy of TGA In the broad sense, the term "TGA" describes any heart with a discordant ven- triculoatrial (VA) connection (aorta from right ventricle, pulmonary artery from left ventricle). The anatomic diagnosis is further defined by the intracardiac fea- tures. Most frequently, TGA is used to describe the solitus/concordant/discordant heart.

  • Waiting for Care in Canada: a Report on the State of Wait List Management for Hip and Knee Replacements from Provincial and Territorial Government Websites
    WAITING FOR CARE IN CANADA: A REPORT ON THE STATE OF WAIT LIST MANAGEMENT FOR HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENTS FROM PROVINCIAL AND TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT WEBSITES By Jennifer Bernier, Kristen MacLellan and Barbara Clow For Women and Health Care Reform March 2010 Funding for this project was provided by the Gender and Health Unit, Health Canada through the Women’s Health Contribution Program. The views expressed herein do not necessarily represent the views of Health Canada. INTRODUCTION Substantial restructuring of Canada’s health care system in the late 1980s and early 1990s created real concern about the quality of health care, including timely access to care. Regionalization and privatization might have led to increased efficiencies – though this is far from an accepted or established position – but it had certainly increased the amount of time people spent waiting for diagnostic and treatment services. In 1997, Health Canada commissioned a number of projects designed to assess the state of wait time management and a preliminary report delivered a scorching critique. “With rare exceptions,” concluded the authors, “waiting lists in Canada, as in most countries, are non-standardized, capriciously organized, poorly monitored, and (according to most informed observers) in grave need of retooling” (McDonald, et al, 1998). Over the next few years, researchers and clinicians continued to draw attention to the need to understand and address lengthy waits for health care and in 2004, Canada’s First Ministers established an accord to reduce waiting times for key health care services, including diagnostic imaging, screening programs and radiation therapy for cancer, by-pass surgery for heart disease, total hip and knee replacements, and surgical removal of cataracts.
