Influence of Inotropic Choice on Morbidity and Mortality in Complex Pediatric Heart Surgery

Summary

Our study is based on the observation that management of the cardiopulmonary by-pass withdrawal in pediatric heart surgery is quite variable between medical teams.

Indeed, in our center (HUDERF), the most common inotropic plan is dobutamine only or combination of milrinone and adrenalin but their uses seem to be very anesthesiologist dependent.

Despite the lack of sufficient evidence, the choice is probably multi-factorial, based mainly on the inotrope pharmacology, the patient physiopathology and the anesthesiologist preference.

The aim of this study is to determine if one of these inotropic strategy (dobutamine VS milrinone + adrenaline) is better compared to the other in terms of morbi-mortality.

In order to do that, the investigators will realize a retrospective study based on files from January 2008 to December 2018 concerning 250 selected patients.
