OPTImal Treatment of Sinus VENOSUS Defect
Sinus venosus defect (SVD) accounts for 10% of atrial septal defects and is characterized by an anomalous pulmonary venous return in the superior vena cava associated with a high situated atrial septal defect. Since 2013, transcatheter correction of this congenital heart disease has emerged as a new treatment option. The …
Utility of MRI With Doppler Ultrasound Gating for Advanced Fetal Monitoring
We will test an ultrasound device that uses sound waves to detect the fetal heart beat, and use this device to tell the MRI scanner when to collect pictures of the fetal heart. This will help freeze motion of the fetal heart, to make MRI pictures sharper. This will be …
The Relationship Between Brain MRI Phenotypes, Genes and Cognitive Outcome in CHD Adults
The main purpose of this proposal is to perform novel MRI analyses to determine the brain organizational changes associated with altered executive function and the modulating role of variants in neuroresilience and hypoxia response genes in adults with d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA).
Acute Maternal Hyperoxygenation in CHD
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is predominantly detected before birth. Using echocardiography and MRI, this study will determine whether acute exposure to maternal hyperoxygenation (MH) leads to measurable increases in fetal cerebral oxygenation from baseline in fetuses with CHD. The study aims to determine whether MH could be used as a …
Blood Conservation in Patients (3.5-12kg) Undergoing Congenital Cardiac Surgery
To evaluate if there is any clinical difference in patients 3.5-12kg who undergo cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass that do and do not receive blood products as part of their procedure. The main hypothesis of the study is that the patients undergoing bloodless cardiac surgery will have decreased morbidity and …
Effect of Local Warming for Arterial Catheterization in Pediatric Anesthesia
The increase in internal diameter (ID) and cross-sectional area (CSA) may facilitate better arterial catheterization. Since an increase in body temperature can cause peripheral vasodilation, we aimed to determine if local warming of the radial artery (RA) catheterization site could improve the success rate of catheterization in pediatric patients.
Training in Exercise Activities and Motion for Growth (TEAM 4 Growth) RCT
This is a Phase III randomized controlled trial of a passive ROM exercise program that will be performed in infants with HLHS and other single right ventricle anomalies following the Norwood procedure at PHN and Auxiliary Centers.
Online Support 4 CHD Kids & Caregivers
This study will evaluate a virtual mental health parenting stepped-care intervention (I-InTERACT-North) to determine if the program works to improve positive parenting skills and child behaviour among families with children born with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). Recruitment will target children ages 3-9 years old from SickKids. We will also evaluate …
Myocardial Protection Effect of Simvastatin Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
Statins have been used to low cholesterol to prevent and treat coronary artery diseases. It was also reported that statins could protect endothelial function and cardiac function during coronary artery bypass graft. The investigators recent found simvastatin reduced myocardial injury during noncoronary artery cardiac surgery in single medical center. The …
Magnetic Sensor Validation of Hemodynamic Non-invasive Measurements Pressure During Cardiac Catheterization
Follow-up of patients with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) usually involves ultrasound imaging or even MRI or CT scans of the heart and stress testing. But these examinations can be challenged in terms of their sensitivity. Thus, the development of non-invasive jugular venous and radial arterial pressure sensors, reflecting the …
