Anesthetic Management of Pediatric Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Abstract
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality associated with congenital heart disease. Patients in this group have a greater peroperative cardiovascular risks including cardiac arrest, pulmonary hypertensive crisis and death compared the normal population. The main purpose of anesthesia is to avoid increased pulmonary vascular resistance and myocardial depression.
