Abstract
The management of children with a borderline ventricle has been debated for many years. The pursuit of a biventricular repair in these children aims to avoid the long-term sequelae of single ventricle palliation. There is a lack of anesthesia literature relating to the care of this complex heterogenous patient population. Anesthesiologists caring for these patients should have an understanding on the many different forms of physiology and the impact on provision of anesthesia and hemodynamic parameters, the goals of biventricular staging and completion as well as the pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative considerations relating to this high-risk group of patients.
