چکیده

IN A PREVIOUS study' cardiac output, intracardiac and intravascular pressures, levels of gas in blood, and acid-base profiles were observed for several days following repair of atrial septal defect and similar lesions. This is a report of similar observations following closure of ventricular septal defect. As in the previous study, the greatest deviations from normal in cardiac function were observed in patients with pre-existing pulmonary vascular disease. Some implications of these data are discussed.

Clinical and physiologic changes following surgical closure of atrial septal defect.

Surgical closure of congenital atrial septal defect has been accomplished with increasing frequency and decreasing surgical risk for the past ten years. At present, accurate surgical correction of this defect can be accomplished by several techniques at an operative mortality rate of less than 5 per cent. The prognosis and natural course of patients with atrial defects not surgically corrected ...

Unusual localisation of a ventricular septal defect following blunt chest trauma.

A 64 year old man presented with a traumatic ventricular septal defect following blunt chest trauma 40 years before. Echocardiography and left ventriculography were helpful in locating the unusual septal defect, which was subpulmonary. The shunt was small, but the anomalous chronic overload led to right ventricular failure. The surgical correction was thus too late to improve right ventricular ...
