  • Title: Bedside balloon atrial septostomy on neonatal units.
    Author: Martin AC, Rigby ML, Penny DJ, Redington AN.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed; 2003 Jul; 88(4):F339-40. PubMed ID: 12819170.
    Abstract:
    Traditionally, neonates with transposition of the great arteries are immediately transferred to a cardiac centre. Travelling to the bedside to perform a balloon atrial septostomy and allowing the child to remain there for a few days before transfer is safe, effective, and a good use of medical resources.
