摘要:
Since diagnostic cardiac catheterization in children with congenital heart disease was first reported in 1947, echocardiography has been used as a non-invasive diagnostic tool in congenital heart disease, resulting in a decrease in diagnostic cardiac catheterizations. However, the total number of cardiac catheterizations remained at a steady level until the mid-1980s and has since increased progressively. This is a result of the introduction of interventional transcatheter techniques to improve or correct congenital heart malformations. Since the first description of balloon atrial septostomy, the range of indications for such techniques has steadily increased, particularly in the past 15 years. ‘Deep’ sedation or general anaesthesia is essential for the conduct of cardiac catheterization in children, particularly in the younger age group.

摘要:
Taking in charge severely ill patients in the intensive care environment to manage complex procedures is a performance requiring highly specific knowledge. Close collaboration between anaesthetists and intensive care specialists is likely to improve the safety and quality of medical care. Three forms of anaesthetic care should be considered in clinical practice: sedation and analgesia; monitored anaesthetic care; and general anaesthesia or conduction block anaesthesia. Even in the field of sedation and analgesia, the anaesthesiologist can offer expertise on new anaesthetic techniques like: the most recent concepts of balanced anaesthesia in terms of pharmacokinetics and dynamics, favouring the use of short-acting agents and of sedative-opioid combinations. New modes of administrating and monitoring intravenous anaesthesia have been developed, with potential application in the intensive care unit. These include the use of target-controlled administration of intravenous drugs, and of electroencephalographic signals to monitor the level of sedation.
