Pediheart: Pediatric Cardiology Today

This week we go back in time to 2019 to re-review an important episode in the world of ACHD and review a registry study assessing outcomes in adults with ASD and elevated PVR who underwent ASD closure. Who was a good candidate for this approach? What were the long term outcomes of this form of therapy? Did ASD closure in this setting confer a survival benefit? We review these and many other questions in a 'virtual roundtable' discussion with Drs. Elisa Bradley, presently of Penn State and Ali Zaidi of Mount Sinai - NYC. Both are world authorities on ACHD and it is a great treat to have such 2 experts both on the show to discuss the subtleties of this complex topic.doi: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2019.03.056
