Keywords
tetralogy of fallot, cardioplegia
Brief summary
Myocardial protection and clinical outcome in patients Undergoing tetralogy of fallot repair: a randomized study of Two cardioplegic techniques.
Detailed description
Del Nido cardioplegia has not been used for myocardial protection and clinical outcome in patients undergoing tetralogy of Fallot repair, so the investigators hypothesized that a del Nido cardioplegia technique may be beneficial in the pediatric patients undergoing tetralogy of fallot repair.
