reader-text-block__blockquote\"><p><strong>Key Points<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Clinical Need for Improved Perfusion Assessment<\/strong>: Evaluating pulmonary perfusion in pediatric CHD patients is complicated due to anatomical variations affecting blood flow, highlighting the need for accurate bedside diagnostic tools.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) Methodology<\/strong>: EIT assesses regional lung ventilation and perfusion by detecting impedance changes, particularly during the injection of a hypertonic saline bolus (0.5 ml\/kg of 5% saline), offering real-time, radiation-free imaging at the bedside.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Validation of EIT Against Traditional Imaging Techniques<\/strong>: EIT perfusion assessments correlated well with findings from established imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and angiography, confirming its reliability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Case 1 \u2013 Postoperative TGA Patient<\/strong>: In a newborn post arterial-switch operation for transposition of the great arteries (TGA), EIT identified normal lung perfusion and ventilation\u2013perfusion matching, aligning with echocardiographic findings and supporting clinical management.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Case 2 \u2013 Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) with Pulmonary Branch Stenosis<\/strong>: An infant with severe hypoxemia following TOF repair demonstrated through EIT significant reduction in left lung perfusion due to pulmonary artery stenosis, effectively guiding treatment decisions when traditional therapies failed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Case 3 \u2013 Hypoxemia After Norwood\u2013Sano Procedure<\/strong>: In an infant with a univentricular heart repair (Norwood\u2013Sano), EIT precisely identified perfusion impairment caused by Sano conduit stenosis, facilitating targeted interventions, including stent placement, and monitoring improvements post-intervention.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ventilation\u2013Perfusion Matching Insights<\/strong>: EIT allowed detailed, pixel-level analysis of ventilation-perfusion relationships, crucial for understanding physiological disturbances, identifying mismatched areas, and tailoring individualized respiratory and cardiovascular therapies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Advantages Over Conventional Methods<\/strong>: EIT&#8217;s bedside availability, continuous monitoring capability, and radiation-free nature represent significant clinical advantages over conventional imaging, especially relevant for critically ill pediatric patients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Future Clinical Implementation and Standardization<\/strong>: While this series confirms EIT&#8217;s feasibility and clinical value, further research is essential to standardize protocols, refine analysis techniques, and validate broader clinical utility across various pediatric CHD populations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Potential Clinical Impact and Outcomes<\/strong>: Routine adoption of EIT in pediatric critical care for CHD patients could significantly enhance bedside diagnostic precision, improve targeted therapeutic strategies, reduce reliance on invasive and resource-intensive procedures, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium
