  • Title: Caesarean section using total intravenous anaesthesia in a patient with Ebstein's anomaly complicated by supraventricular tachycardia.
    Author: Macfarlane AJ, Moise S, Smith D.
    Journal: Int J Obstet Anesth; 2007 Apr; 16(2):155-9. PubMed ID: 17270419.
    Abstract:
    Ebstein's anomaly is a rare congenital cardiac defect associated with both displacement and incompetence of the tricuspid valve. The condition is commonly complicated by supraventricular tachycardias. We describe the management of a patient with this condition undergoing caesarean section. Propofol and remifentanil total intravenous anaesthesia resulted in haemodynamic stability and delivery of a healthy baby who breathed spontaneously after two minutes.
