Implication

May guide arrhythmia management after Mustard's operation; leaves open prospective validation of routine electrophysiological assessment.

Structured PICO

What are the electrophysiological abnormalities after Mustard's operation for transposition of the great arteries?

P
Population
16 patients who underwent Mustard's operation for transposition of the great arteries
I
Intervention
Electrophysiological studies during postoperative cardiac catheterization (recording of intracavitary electrical potentials, and rapid atrial pacing in 9 patients)
O
Outcome
Electrophysiological abnormalities (stability of atrioventricular conduction system and pacemaker recovery)surrogate

Electrophysiological studies during postoperative cardiac catheterization can assess AV conduction stability and pacemaker recovery in patients after Mustard's operation.
