Pulmonary Vascular Disease in the Single-Ventricle Patient: Is it Really Pulmonary Hypertension and if So, How and When Should We Treat it?
Abstract
Despite significant improvements in the surgical and postoperative care for patients with single-ventricle physiology culminating in the Fontan circulation, significant late morbidity and mortality remains. In the setting of passive (ie, non-“pump” driven) pulmonary blood flow, pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) plays a key role in determining cardiac output, and even slight elevations in PVR may result in significant morbidity. There is now...
