    Overcoming Challenges with Tricuspid Atresia

    Overcoming Challenges with Tricuspid Atresia

    What is tricuspid atresia? What kind of complications did Amanda Braun face over the last three decades? What surgical interventions have helped Amanda overcome her cardiac challenges?

    Born in 1988, Amanda Braun was diagnosed with Tricuspid Atresia, VSD, and HRHS. She had her first of 6 surgeries at 3 months old, which was a pulmonary artery banding. At 4 she developed endocarditis and had to have the PA banding redone. Amanda required no other surgeries until age 14 when she had the Glenn and Fontan done. Apart from a sternal wire removal at age 22, Amanda was well until 32 years of age, when she began to develop a range of symptoms as her heart struggled. She had a dual-lead pacemaker implanted, which was complicated and required two procedures due to her Fontan anatomy. Amanda lives in Indiana and works as a Cardiac Monitor Technician. She also runs “Amanda’s Blankets” where she makes customized blankets for adults, children, babies, and pets.

    The program starts with us learning a bit about Amanda in Segment 1. In the second segment, we talk about complications that Amanda has had, and in the third segment, we discuss Amanda’s pacemaker and future prognosis.

    Heart Friends Meet for the First Time!

    Heart Friends Meet for the First Time!

    This is a special episode of "Heart to Heart with Anna" featuring two heart friends who interacted with one another for seven years before meeting each other face-to-face in person. Anna Jaworski, our Host, was lucky to be invited to this special event. The following day, she went back to Katy, Texas to actually conduct a face-to-face interview with these long-time friends to share the excitement of the meeting and share some valuable stories sure to touch the hearts of those who listen.

    Do most Heart Warriors -- men and women born with congenital heart defects -- grow up knowing other Heart Warriors? Is that something that is more common today than decades ago? What kind of bond do Heart Warriors form when they come to know each other?

    Today’s show is 'Heart Friends Meet for the First Time!' and our Guests are Lauren England and Jeni Busta.

    Jeni Busta and Lauren England were both born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). In the first two years of life, they underwent multiple surgeries to repair their hearts. They later developed arrhythmias and received pacemakers, but have continued to experience SVT and other arrhythmias which have disrupted their lives at different times.

    Jeni lives in Southern California with her husband Nick, a high school history teacher. They have been married for 13 years. Jeni has been actively involved in the CHD community since childhood. Who would have guessed that Jeni’s making of a documentary would later bring her into Lauren’s life?

    Lauren has lived in Texas her whole life. Her heart has led her to a passion for the arts, and a beautiful friendship with Jeni.

    When a Heart Warrior Is Living in Heart Failure

    When a Heart Warrior Is Living in Heart Failure

    Aubyn Baker-Riley is an adult born in 1963 with a bicuspid aortic valve and coarctation of the aorta. She had open-heart surgery at 7 years of age to widen the coarctation and ablations in 2005, 2016 and 2018. She is currently in heart failure.

    Although Aubyn is only in her 50s, it's unusual for someone like her to have made it to adulthood. Many people born in the 1960s, and even in the next decade, succumbed to their heart defects before reaching adulthood. What has Aubyn's path been like for her? What symptoms and warning signs has she had?

    More importantly, what is it like to live in heart failure? What are some coping techniques that can be used if you are in heart failure? Aubyn answers these questions and more in today's episode of "Heart to Heart with Anna."

    LVADs

    LVADs

    Join the EMGuideWire Team as they discuss a simple approach to the very complex and complicated patients with a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD). "LVAD" is for "Look & Listen, Ventricle, Anticoagulation, and Driveline."

    Arrhythmias in the ICU: An Intensivist’s approach.

    Arrhythmias in the ICU: An Intensivist’s approach.

    When is an arrhythmia important? Can you tell, or should you always refer to a cardiologist? What are the best management strategies for common arrhythmias and are there any potential problems to be aware of? What about the “do not miss” diagnoses? 

     

    Arrhythmias are common in critically unwell patients, and may represent primary cardiac pathology, or the cardiac response to underlying pathology. Estimates for the incidence of arrhythmias in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) vary widely. Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia in the ICU, and management varies according to patient instability, underlying comorbidities and conditions, with important features that may favour a rate-control strategy over cardioversion, or a pharmacologic cardioversion over an electrical cardioversion. Atrial tachycardias are less common, but may have important consequences, and be difficult to manage in the intensive care patient. Ventricular arrhythmias are often immediately life threatening, and may require more than an advanced life support (ALS) algorithm to effectively treat and suppress.  

     

    The mainstay of therapy for our patients in ICU is pharmacotherapy, usually with amiodarone or diltiazem, however specific circumstances may dictate the use of other antiarrhythmic drugs. Ablation therapies may offer effective treatment for ICU patients, however have risks specific to ICU patients, associated with transport, procedural risk, delay of ongoing therapies, requirement for personnel, and isolated location. 

     

    This session will outline a practical approach to diagnosis and management of common and important arrhythmias in the ICU, and will include case and ECG discussions.  

    Cardiac Electrophysiology: What’s new?

    Cardiac Electrophysiology: What’s new?

    Patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are at increased risk for cardiac arrhythmias. They may be the reason for admission or resulting from the underlying condition. Treating exacerbating and contributing factors is the first step in management, however in certain cases may not be sufficient. Further the diagnosis of the arrhythmia may difficult from the ECG. An invasive cardiac electrophysiology study (EPS) can be helpful in establishing the diagnosis and can be combined with catheter ablation to eliminate the substrate. The field of cardiac electrophysiology is rapidly developing with technological advances providing insights into the mechanism of certain arrhythmias and expanding the therapeutic potential. This presentation will provide an overview of recent developments and insights into the management of common arrhythmias on the ICU.
