Abstract: | To examine the relationship between arterial blood pressure and oxygenation in patients undergoing complete surgical correction of tetralogy of Fallot, a retrospective study of 16 patients was first performed, looking at the correlation between mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and arterial oxygen tension (PaO2 The correlation between phenylephrine-induced changes in MAP (Δ MAP) and those in PaO2 (Δ PaO2 was investigated prospectively in seven patients. In the retrospective study, there was a significant correlation between MAP and (PaO2 (n = 66; r = 0.55; P < 0.01), and most data points with a PaO2 <50 mm Hg were associated with a MAP <60 mm Hg. In the seven patients who received phenylephrine, 10 μg/kg, a significant correlation was found between Δ MAP and Δ (PaO2 (n = 10; r = 0.95; P < 0.01). These results suggest that in tetralogy of Fallot arterial blood pressure is a determinant of arterial oxygenation, and that the risk of serious hypoxia is significant when MAP is <60 mm Hg. |
