Kawasaki disease and general anaesthesia: The Know - Hows

Twelve-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) was normal. 2D echocardiogram was suggestive of a good ventricular function with ejection fraction 60%, a 2 mm small ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect of size 5 mm, both with left to right shunts. In the OR, monitoring included ECG (lead II and V5...

Description
Summary:Twelve-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) was normal. 2D echocardiogram was suggestive of a good ventricular function with ejection fraction 60%, a 2 mm small ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect of size 5 mm, both with left to right shunts. In the OR, monitoring included ECG (lead II and V5), pulse oximetry (SpO2), non-invasive blood pressure and end-tidal carbon dioxide. The goals of successful management include risk stratification, cardiac status assessment, maintaining stable intraoperative haemodynamics and avoiding triggers of myocardial injury (pain, instrumentation under light planes of anaesthesia).
