Unrecognized pulmonary venous desaturation early after Norwood palliation confounds Gp:Gs assessment and compromises oxygen delivery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Advances in surgical technique and perioperative myocardial protection have reduced the risk of aortic and mitral valve surgery. Improved methods of valve repair have reduced the proportion of patients who require valve replacement. However, patients who require valve replacement often have advanced disease ...
