  • Title: Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) in pediatric cardiac anesthesia.
    Author: Wong GL, Morton NS.
    Journal: Paediatr Anaesth; 2011 May; 21(5):560-6. PubMed ID: 21401799.
    Abstract:
    Although inhalational anesthesia with moderate- to high-dose opioid analgesia has been the mainstay of pediatric cardiac anesthesia, the availability of new short-acting drugs, new concepts in pharmacokinetic modeling and computer technology, and advances in surgery and perfusion have made total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) an attractive option. In this article, we review some of the TIVA techniques used in pediatric cardiac anesthesia.
