Congenital Pulmonary Stenosis
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of different anesthetic drugs used for induction of anesthesia ketamine versus sevoflurane on the RV pressure in pediatrics undergoing balloon dilatation for congenital pulmonary stenosis.
Detailed description
Critical pulmonary stenosis (PS) is a life-threatening congenital heart disease which manifest during the neonatal period with cyanosis. Surgical valvotomy was the procedure of choice for critical PS; however, balloon pulmonary valvoplasty (BPV) has now become the standard management. Ketamine is often used for procedural sedation or as adjunct agent for general anesthesia in pediatrics with congenital heart disease. Ketamine is a chemical derivative of phencyclidine acting as a selective antagonist of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, an ionotropic glutamate receptor that participates in analgesia, amnesia, and sedation pathways. Ketamine has minimal impact on hemodynamics in children with congenital heart disease when used at usual clinical doses. Systemic vascular resistance and pulmonary vascular resistance are not significantly altered. Sevoflurane is a sweet-smelling, highly fluorinated methyl isopropyl ether used as an inhalational anesthetic for induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. It proved to be safe as induction agent in noncardiac surgery and cardiac surgery. Sevoflurane has low solubility in blood, produces less arrhythmias and decrease in contractility less than halothane without changing pulmonary to systemic blood flow ratio in pediatrics with congenital heart disease.
Interventions
This group includes (20) patients will receive induction by sevoflurane 3% using open circuit (modified Ayre's T-piece) till loss of consciousness and will be maintained on oxygen mask on the same concentration of sevoflurane and connected to capnogram
