Abstract:
The general objective of this case report was to discuss the use of Ketamine intravenous anesthesia as a physiologic approach in managing surgical correction for neonatal TAPVR who needs an urgent surgical intervention.
Specific Objectives are:
- To understand the pathophysiology of TAPVR;
- To identify the physiologic problems seen in TAPVR prior to surgery, during the surgical procedure, and after correction of the lesions;
- To discuss concomitantly how an anesthetic technique and various anesthetic drugs affect these problems;
- To discuss the rational use of Ketamine infusion anesthesia in TAPVR.
