简要总结
In patients with Fontan circulation blood is not pumped to the lungs from a ventricle. Instead the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava is connected to the pulmonary artery and blood flow to the lungs occurs passively along this Fontan pathway. This passive blood flow to the lungs occurs best when the patient is breathing on their own (spontaneous ventilation). However for certain surgeries and procedures patients need to have an endotracheal tube inserted and need to be muscle relaxed and receive positive pressure ventilation. Prior studies have shown that positive pressure ventilation can reduce blood flow to the lungs and consequently blood returning to the heart resulting in less blood pumped out to the rest of the body (cardiac output). The purpose of this study is to investigate if changing the volume of the positive pressure ventilation (tidal volume) affects blood flow to the lungs and cardiac output in patients with Fontan circulation.
详细描述
If it can be shown that changing the tidal volume does affect the blood flow to the lungs and cardiac output in patients with Fontan circulation the information can be used to learn from this study to optimize the tidal volume ventilation, and therefore pulmonary blood flow and cardiac output when Fontan patients come for general anesthesia. This is important because the population of patients with Fontan circulation is increasing and an increasing number will present for cardiac and non cardiac surgery when positive pressure ventilation will be required. They may also spend time on the cardiac intensive care unit on a ventilator and improving our knowledge on how best to ventilate them may help improve their overall hospital outcomes.

结局指标
主要结局
Transpulmonary gradient
时间窗: 5 minutes of change in Tidal Volume (high vs low)
Effect of tidal volume changes (high vs low) on Transpulmonary gradient as measured as the difference between mean pulmonary artery pressure measured from right internal jugular (Fontan pressure line) and left atrial pressure measured by direct intracardiac pressure line. Both lines are placed for the scheduled clinical procedure and not solely for the purposes of the research study.
次要结局
- Systemic outflow tract stroke distance (velocity time integral)(5 minutes of change in Tidal Volume (high vs low))
- Blood flow in inferior vena cava (IVC)(5 minutes of change in Tidal Volume (high vs low))
