Abstract:
93 Background: Surgical palliation is defined as the use of a procedure in patients with incurable disease to relieve symptoms. The American College of Surgeons Risk Calculator (ACSRC) was created based on data from the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program to predict the risk of surgical complications on a patient specific level. Whether the ACSRC can accurately predict the risk of postoperative complications following palliative procedures in cancer patients is unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine if the ACSRC accurately predicted postoperative complication rates in th

The Fontan procedure [1] is the staged, palliative surgical approach used to treat patients suffering from single ventricle congenital heart defects.

Because of obvious disparities at the connection site, there are understandable differences in the fluid dynamics between the two geometries.

Single ventricle heart disease is a congenital condition characterized by the inoperability of one ventricle of an infant’s heart. Those suffering from this condition face a series of palliative surgeries called the Fontan procedure, which bypasses the non-functional ventricle by creating a total cavopulmonary connection, or TCPC. This TCPC forms from the anastomosis of the superior and inferior vena cavae (SVC, IVC) to the left and right pulmonary arteries (LPA, RPA), thus allowing systemic blood flow to bypass the heart and flow passively to the lungs.

Last stage of the palliative surgical reconstruction (i.e. Fontan procedure) for the infants with functional single-ventricle is total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC), where the superior vena cavae (SVC) and inferior vena cavae (IVC) are routed directly into the pulmonary arteries. Limited pumping energy available due to the absence of right-ventricle and altered venous characteristics require optimized hemodynamics inside the TCPC pathway, which can be achieved by minimizing the power losses.

Abstract:
The Fontan operation is the final stage of palliative surgery for children born with single ventricle heart defects. The most common configuration is called total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC), wherein the inferior vena cava and superior vena cava are anastomosed directly to the pulmonary arteries; therefore the pulmonary circulation is driven by venous pressure only. The Fontan procedure, although successful in the early postoperative period, with time can decrease in efficiency or even fail within several years after the operation. The reasons of different clinical outcomes for some of the

Abstract:
Single Ventricle Heart Defects (SVHD) are present in 2 per 1000 live births in the US. SVHD are characterized by cyanotic mixing between the de-oxygenated blood from the systemic circulation return and the oxygenated blood from the pulmonary arteries. Palliative surgical repairs (Fontan procedure) are performed to bypass the right ventricle in these patients. In current practice, the surgical interventions commonly result in the total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC). In this configuration the systemic venous returns (inferior vena cava, IVC, and superior vena cava, SVC) are directly routed to

Abstract:
In the US, approximately 1 in 100 children are born with a clinically significant congenital heart defect (CHD). The palliative repair of these defects requires complex biventricular and univentricular surgical operations in newborns often smaller than 2 kg. However, recovery after neonatal intervention remains suboptimal 1. A major component of these surgeries is the cardiopulmonary by-pass (CPB) procedure which if prolonged can potentially lead to neurological complications and developmental defects in a young patient. During CPB, tiny aortic cannulae (2–3 mm inner diameter), with micro-scal
