Item does not contain fulltext, CONTEXT: Save a Child's Heart addresses the challenges of heart care for children in underdeveloped countries. OBJECTIVE: Save a Child's Heart has created a center of excellence for pediatric cardiac care at the Wolfson Medical Center in Israel, helped develop partner sites for evaluation and referral, and trained medical teams to return and build their own capacity for local cardiac care. RESULTS: Save a Child's Heart has treated more than 3600 children from 48 countries, with 50% from Iraq, Jordan, the Palestinian Authority, and Syria. In cooperation with the Palestinian Authority, Save a Child's Heart has examined more than 6000 children and treated 1750 children, trained 21 medical personnel, and conducted seminars for Palestinian medical personnel. The "Heart of the Matter Project," funded by the European Union, US Agency for International Development, the Palestinian Ministry of Health, and the Israeli Ministry of Regional Cooperation, is currently training a team at the Wolfson Medical Center from the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah and provides funds for Palestinian children's care in Israel. CONCLUSIONS: Save a Child's Heart is a model of a global humanitarian health care initiative with a single focus on heart disease in children. The "Heart of the Matter Project" is a model of health care based on regional cooperation despite local political tensions.

1 april 2013, Item does not contain fulltext, OBJECTIVES: The absence of a pulmonary valve (PV) after tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair has been shown to impact postoperative right ventricular (RV) function. The purposes of this study were to (i) compare early outcomes after PV-sparing vs transannular patching (TAP) with monocusp valve reconstruction or TAP alone and (b) assess the mid-term results after polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane monocusp reconstruction. METHODS: From 2003 to 2009, 163 patients underwent TOF repair. Sixty-nine patients (42.3%) underwent a PV-sparing procedure (Group A), 74 (45.4%) underwent PTFE membrane monocusp valve reconstruction (Group B) and 20 (12.3%) underwent TAP only (Group C). Early outcomes were evaluated by the right-to-left ventricular pressure ratio, RV outflow tract gradient, tricuspid and PV function, intensive care unit (ICU) parameters and need for reintervention. Group B patients were also evaluated at intermediate term for clinical and echocardiographic parameters, including tricuspid and monocusp valve function and mobility. RESULTS: The median age, weight and PV Z-value of Group B patients were significantly lower; 20.5 months, 9.3 kg and -4, respectively. Postoperatively, the right-to-left ventricular pressure ratio was <0.5 in all groups. Mechanical ventilation time, fluid drainage duration and total ICU stay showed no significant difference between Groups A and B, while Group C was significantly longer (P < 0.01). There were five (3%) early deaths: three from Group A and two from Group B. The incidences of moderate or severe pulmonary insufficiency (PI) on discharge were 8.2% in Group A, 9% in Group B and 50% in Group C (P < 0.001). Among Group B patients, 85% of the evaluated patients had less than moderate PI in the intermediate-term follow-up, QRS duration <140 ms in 83.3% and right-to-left ventricular diameter ratio of 0.6 +/- 0.2. Two (2.6%) patients underwent reoperation for monocusp replacement. There were two (2.7%) mid-term deaths. CONCLUSIONS: Th
