Link To And Excerpts From PedsCases’ “Single-Ventricle Physiology Episode 1: Tricuspid Atresia”

Note to myself: The best way to review this excellent podcast and show notes is do it on a laptop and have both this post open [so I can review the figures] and the script open so I can tab back and forth from the script to the figures. In the script, the figures are at the very end of the PDF.

In this post I link to and excerpt from PedsCases’ Single-Ventricle Physiology Episode 1: Tricuspid Atresia by Sabine Lague, March 20, 2021.

I found the script somewhat hard to follow when I read it. But listening to it as a podcast it was easier for me to understand.

All that follows is from the above podcast, show notes, and script:

Part 1 of this 3-part podcast series on Single-Ventricle Physiology presents an approach to the management of tricuspid atresia in the neonate. In this episode, listeners will learn about the anatomy-associated anomalies, pathophysiology, and clinical presentation of tricuspid atresia as well as an approach to its diagnosis and management. The podcast was developed by Dr. Sabine Laguë, a pediatrics resident at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada in collaboration with Dr. Shreya Moodley, a pediatric cardiologist at BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver.

All that follows is excerpted from the script:

This first episode focuses on tricuspid atresia, a relatively common form of single ventricle anatomy. The second episode discusses hypoplastic left heart syndrome, another common form of single ventricle anatomy. Both episodes follow the patient from birth through to childhood. The third episode revisits both of these patients in their late adolescence and discusses long-term management and complications of patients
post-Fontan.
