Repaired Tetralogy Of Fallot In The Adult Monitoring And Management

Repaired Tetralogy Of Fallot In The Adult Monitoring And Management Tetralogy of fallot (tof) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease (chd). the history of surgical treatment of tof is closely linked with the origins of cardiac surgery. before the era of cardiac surgery, most tof patients died in childhood; now well over 85% survive to adulthood, resulting in an increased prevalence of tof in adults.1 patients with “repaired” tof pose unique. Repaired tetralogy of fallot in the adult: monitoring and management. repaired tetralogy of fallot in the adult: monitoring and management. heart. 2008 dec;94 (12):1663 9. doi: 10.1136 hrt.2008.147249.

Repaired Tetralogy Of Fallot In The Adult Monitoring And Management The prototype for studying postoperative vt has been repaired tetralogy of fallot, 173 which on longterm suffers from vt in up to 12% of patients and with a sudden death rate of nearly 8% at 21. Arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death remain common in repaired tetralogy of fallot and affect even those with excellent anatomic repairs. atrial arrhythmia often has mechanisms different from those in acquired heart disease. ventricular arrhythmia remains a major source of mortality in repaired tetralogy of fallot. noninvasive risk stratification is important to identify patients who may. This review will focus on the history and changing epidemiology of tof in adults, the pathophysiology of repaired tof, and emerging data for monitoring and treatment. tetralogy of fallot (tof) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease (chd). the history of surgical treatment of tof is closely linked with the origins of cardiac surgery. before the era of cardiac surgery, most tof.
