[Intraoperative autohemotransfusion during correction of congenital heart defects].

Autohemotransfusion is one of the perspective methods of transfusion used in cardiosurgery. Intraoperative autohemotransfusion was used in surgical correction of congenital heart diseases in patients of various age groups, including children aged 6 to 8. The exfusion volume made up 300-600 ml, depending on the patient's body mass and the hematologic parameters.

[Total intravenous general anesthesia during radical correction of tetralogy of Fallot].

Three techniques of general intravenous anesthesia were compared, using mathematical parameters of the heart rhythm, hemodynamic and sympathoadrenal system responses, arterial blood Hb saturation with O2 (SaO2) and thermometry. It has been established that anesthesia with dipidolor ensures adequate protection against the operation stress both in patients with tetralogy of Fallot previously subject to interarterial anastomoses and patients with tetralogy of Fallot without anastomoses. Combined fentanyl and ketamine anesthesia ensures an adequate protection against the operation stress only in patients with tetralogy of Fallot without anastomoses.
