Abstract: Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of fast track (FT) treatment in young children with atrioventricular septal defect (CAVSD) and pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) following surgical repair. Methods A total of 51 young children patients including 24 boys and 27 girls with age at 12.5±8.9 months from 4 to 36 months, underwent CAVSD repair in the pediatric surgery department of Fu Wai Hospital from January 2006 to March 2009. Among them, 21 patients were administered FT management. PICU length of stay and the rate of reintubation were analyzed retrospectively and the decrease of pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) after operation was also measured. Results Twentyone patients under FT treatment were extubated within 8 hours after operation. The mean pulmonary artery pressure(MPAP) decreased significantly after surgery (39.59 mm Hg vs.24.50 mm Hg,t=5514,Plt;0.05). PICU length of stay was 2.05±0.87 d (18 h-3 d). One patient was reintubated due to lung infection, which had nothing to do with the FT treatment. During the followup which lasted for 3 to 6 months, 21 patients had good heart function with no reoperation or death. Conclusion FT treatment is safe and feasible to some CAVSD patients associated with PAH, and shorter PICU length of stay can be achieved. The validation of FT model for the CAVSD patients with severe PAH needs research with large sample.
