Abstract Background: There is no gold standard sedation method for pediatric cardiac catheterization. In congenital heart diseases with intracardiac shunts, hemodynamic parameters are prone to change depending on the ventilation conditions and anesthetics, although few studies have examined these effects. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two different sedation methods on the hemodynamic parameters. Methods: This study retrospectively evaluated consecutive patients with ventricular septal defect (VSD) below 1 year of age who underwent cardiac catheterization at Aichi Children’s Health and Medical Center, who were divided into age- and VSD diameter-matched general anesthesia (GA) and monitored anesthesia… More >
