No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this trial is to determine, at 3 years of life, how the neurologic and functional outcomes in infants with single ventricles are different when comparing children treated with the Hybrid strategy to the Norwood strategy.

Conditions

  • Congenital Heart Disease

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Norwood management strategy

Norwood palliation will be performed as per current clinical practice at The Hospital for Sick Children.

PROCEDURE

Hybrid Strategy

Hybrid palliation will be performed as per current clinical practice at The Hospital for Sick Children. The 'Hybrid' management strategy utilizes catheter-based and non-open heart surgical procedures in the neonatal period to stabilize the neonate.10 The majority of the reconstruction is thereby deferred to 4-6 months of age, at which time the second stage procedure including an aortic arch reconstruction is performed. The third stage procedure (Fontan) is identical between Norwood and Hybrid strategies.
