Abstract
Providing thorough care for children with congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing non-cardiac surgery requires a strong understanding of common heart defects and the procedures used to treat them. To care for these patients, multidisciplinary teams must consider the severity of the underlying cardiac disease, comorbid conditions, and preoperative severity of illness. The American Heart Association's Scientific Statement on Perioperative Considerations for Pediatric Patients with Congenital Heart Disease Presenting for Noncardiac Procedures offers valuable guidance.
