Analysis of prescription compliance and influencing factors in cardiac rehabilitation after surgery in children with congenital heart disease based on generalized trust theory.

Aims: To understand the compliance, influencing factors, and action path of family cardiac rehabilitation exercise prescriptions for children after congenital heart disease surgery.

Methods And Results: A random sampling method was used to select 200 paediatric patients and their parents from a paediatric hospital in Shanghai. Among them, 57 cases (28.

Pharmacokinetics of treprostinil in children with functional single-ventricle pulmonary arterial hypertension: a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Application of Treprostinil (TRE) in the patients with single ventricle (SV) physiology is very limited, and the optimal dose for children has not been determined. In this study, we aimed to analyze plasma samples to assess the attainment of clinically therapeutic concentrations of TRE and its efficacy and safety in the treatment of pediatric functional SV pulmonary arterial hypertension (FSV-PAH)..

[Effect of prone or spine position on mechanically ventilated neonates after cardiac surgery with acute lung injury].

Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety ventilated with pressure support ventilation (PSV) or neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) in neonates undergoing open-heart surgery with acute lung injury (ALI) in spine and prone positions.

Methods: Fifteen neonates with a mean age of (15 +/- 9) days and a mean weight of (3.5 +/- 0.

[Outcome of oral bosentan in children with congenital heart disease associated pulmonary arterial hypertension].

Objective: To investigate the outcome of dual endothelin receptor antagonist bosentan in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Methods: A total of 32 children were recruited into this prospective and observational study. Among them, there were 18 cases with left-to-right shunt and 14 cases with elevated pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in functional single ventricle (FSV).

Effect of flow rate, negative pressure, and duration of modified ultrafiltration on hemodynamics and inflammatory mediators.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of flow rate, negative pressure, and duration on modified ultrafiltration (MUF). Eighty children weighing less than 10 kg with congenital heart disease were randomly divided into four groups: group C (conventional MUF); group H (high flow rate MUF); group P (high negative pressure MUF); and group L (long duration, high flow rate MUF). The changes in body weight, hematocrit, and hemodynamics were recorded.
