ObjectiveWhile early outcome after the Norwood operation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome has improved, interstage mortality until bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt (BCPS) remains a concern. Our aim was to institute a home monitoring program to (HMP) decrease interstage mortality.MethodsAmong 264 patients who survived Norwood procedure and were discharged before BCPS, 80 patients were included in the HMP and compared to the remaining 184 patients regarding interstage mortality. In patients with HMP, events during the interstage period were evaluated.ResultsInterstage mortality was 8% (n = 21), and was significantly lower in patients with HMP (2.5%, n = 2), compared to those without (10.3%, n = 19, p = 0.031). Patients with interstage mortality had significantly lower birth weight (p |
