Research Abstract |
Basic research on development of clinically applicable non-invasive cardiac function monitor in children was conducted by analyzing changes in high-frequency QRS potentials on electrocardiogram during pediatric cardiac surgery. Changes in high-frequency QRS potentials was measured before and after removal of aortic cross-clamp and return of spontaneous heartbeat in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Progressive recovery of high frequency QRS potentials was confirmed after reinstitution of myocardial perfusion and degree of high-frequency QRS potential recovery was correlated with improvement in cardiac function and degree of myocardial injury during surgical procedure. Our findings suggest that measurement of high-frequency QRS potentials on electrocardiogram after pediatric open heart surgery is a useful monitor of cardiac function and may have potentials to become an effective non-invasive cardiac function monitor in postoperative open heart surgical children.
