You may not alter the size of this ) Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of a hospital-wide process improvement program labeled as level 1 cardiogenic shock rapid response that enables a concerted coordinated multi-disciplinary team approach to treatment of patients with cardiogenic shock. Methods: Conducted a retrospective analysis of the cardiogenic shock rapid response program (protocol group) comparing to similar cohort of cardiogenic shock patients who did not utilize the shock response program. The program required alerting the advanced heart failure trained cardiologist who advises activation of a burst page to the cardiogenic shock team. This team rapidly institutes protocol-directed therapy and use of advanced support devices if necessary. The primary endpoint was hospital mortality. Secondary endpoint was utilization of advanced therapy (temporary mechanical circulatory support) Results: 471 patients were in the control and 110 in the protocol group. Baseline characteristics were similar and etiology of cardiogenic shock. The protocol group had significant reductions in-hospital mortality (35% to 45% (p< 0.05).

Correspondence to: Weiyi Tan; Jamil Aboulhosn. University of California, Los Angeles, USA. Email: [email protected]; [email protected]. Abstract: Cardiac catheterization procedures have revolutionized the treatment of adults with congenital heart disease over the past six decades. Patients who previously would have required open heart surgery for various conditions can now undergo percutaneous cardiac catheter-based procedures to close intracardiac shunts, relieve obstructive valvular lesions, stent stenotic vessels, or even replace and repair dysfunctional valves. As the complexity of percutaneous cardiac catheterization procedures has increased, so has the use of echocardiography for interventional guidance in adults with congenital heart disease. Transthoracic, transesophageal, intracardiac, and three-dimensional echocardiography have all become part and parcel of the catheterization laboratory experience. In this review, we aim to describe the different echocardiographic techniques and their role in various cardiac catheterization

It can also be combined with the modified Norwood procedure to correct aortic atresia with a ventricular septal defect (VSD). The Rastelli procedure involves creating a “baffle” to close the ventricular septal defect (VSD), separating the right & left ventricles. The baffle directs blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta. During this surgery, a right ventricle to pulmonary artery (RV-PA) conduit is also placed to supply blood flow to the lungs. There are many types of materials used for RV-PA conduits. Depending on the surgical plan and patient’s anatomy, conduits made of Gore-tex®(Gore), homograft (cadaver valved tissue), Contegra® conduits (Medtronic)(valved bovine (cow) jugular vein), or Hancock® conduits (Medtronic)(Dacron tube graft containing a porcine (pig) valve) can be used. At the completion of the Rastelli procedure, there is separation of “blue” and “red” blood, similar to a normal heart’s blood flow. During surgery, a median sternotomy (incision through the middle of the chest) is done.
