简要总结
Heart failure is a common long-term complication in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Medical treatments to promote regeneration of new healthy heart muscle cells have the potential to provide new heart failure treatments for these patients. The development of such therapies is limited by the poor understanding of the ways in which heart muscles grow after birth. Investigators have learned that humans without heart disease generate new heart muscles cells up to the age of 20 years old and that this is decreased in patients with congenital heart disease like Tetralogy of Fallot. Investigators are trying to determine if treatment with a medicine called Propranolol can increase heart muscle cell proliferation and, with that, normalize heart growth. Investigators will examine discarded heart muscle tissue that is obtained during surgery for the presence of new heart muscle cells. Propranolol is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat a certain kind of benign tumor in infants (hemangioma), but it is not currently approved by the FDA to increase heart muscle growth.

结局指标
主要结局
Cardiomyocyte Division
时间窗: At the time of complete surgical repair, at approximately 3-9 months old, it is expected that a piece of RV myocardium will be resected. This tissue will be collected and analyzed using a multiple isotope mass spectrometer.
To quantify cardiomyocyte division, investigators will utilize previously established MIMS (membrane introduction mass spectrometry) approach. Briefly, investigators will administer 5 enteral doses of 15N-thymidine to all patients at 1 month after birth. Cardiomyocytes that have undergone DNA replication after the intake of 15N-thymidine will incorporate the stable isotope into their DNA.
