#Fontan patients offer unique challenges! Teenager with #HLHS post Fontan with recoarctation and LPA stenosis. LCA ran along the course of the LPA. Did coronary compression testing but able to stent both with good result. #CHD #ACHD @NCProvider @Adam_Skaff @SohamDasguptaMD 1/2

This was a great case and really nice device. Simple delivery, allowed patient to ambulate, and provided needed support. @ABiomed @NortonChildrens #CHD #VAD #hearttransplant

First in the region! Norton Children’s Heart Institute placed an Impella RP Flex for RV support in a pediatric patient. This innovation bridged the teen to a successful heart transplant. Read full case: https://t.co/2veeGXTxgP #HeartFailure #PediatricCardiology

What’s the highest VO2 you’ve seen in #Fontan circulation? 52.7! Shows the importance of exercise. Patient plays competitive basketball and exercises frequently. I’m in good shape my watch estimates my VO2 at 54 with 2 ventricles. #ACHD #CHD #exercise @NortonChildrens @UofLPeds

Another large atrial tumor removed non-surgically with ŌNŌ. Intracardiac/Intravascular mass removal techniques continue to evolve rapidly. How will this impact current management strategies?? ŌNŌ helps again…..again
