Transthoracic intracardiac line use and complications in the paediatric single ventricle population.
Transthoracic intracardiac lines provide a unique access point for postoperative monitoring and management in paediatric cardiothoracic surgeries, particularly within the single ventricle population where preserving vasculature is crucial for future interventions. This retrospective review examined paediatric single ventricle patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgeries at a tertiary children's hospital between 2011 and 2018, focusing on the use of and factors associated with transthoracic line complications (infection, thrombosis, malfunction, and migration). A total of 338 lines were placed during the study period, with the majority occurring during palliative surgeries (86.5%). Lines remained in place for a median of 14 days postoperatively. Complications occurred in 21 lines (6.2%), comprising 8 migrations (2.4%), 7 thrombosis (2.1%), 4 malfunctions (1.2%), and 2 infections (0.6%). The presence of a surgical shunt was significantly associated with line complications (odds ratio 2.58, confidence interval 1.05 - 6.31; P 0.03). The use of transthoracic intracardiac lines seems to be safe and should be considered as a primary alternative to other central lines in the single ventricle population. A prospective assessment of transthoracic line complications, along with delineation of unit protocols, may further enhance outcomes in this complex population.
期刊介绍:
Cardiology in the Young is devoted to cardiovascular issues affecting the young, and the older patient suffering the sequels of congenital heart disease, or other cardiac diseases acquired in childhood. The journal serves the interests of all professionals concerned with these topics. By design, the journal is international and multidisciplinary in its approach, and members of the editorial board take an active role in the its mission, helping to make it the essential journal in paediatric cardiology. All aspects of paediatric cardiology are covered within the journal. The content includes original articles, brief reports, editorials, reviews, and papers devoted to continuing professional development.
