Key result
A net positive fluid balance, higher intraoperative fluid volume, and lower urine output were independently associated with the need for antihypertensive therapy following coarctation repair (p<0.05).
Why the study?
Does postoperative fluid balance influence the need for antihypertensive therapy following coarctation repair in infants and children?
Observational (n=24)

p-value: p=< .05
A net positive fluid balance contributes to the development of paradoxic hypertension following coarctation repair, suggesting that limiting intraoperative fluids and early diuretic use may reduce the need for antihypertensive therapy.
Fluid balance may influence antihypertensive needs after coarctation repair; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.

Schroeder et al. (2004) conducted an observational in Repaired coarctation (n=24). Positive fluid balance and high intraoperative fluid volume vs. Lower fluid balance and intraoperative fluid volume was evaluated on Need for perioperative antihypertensive therapy (p=< .05). A net positive fluid balance, higher intraoperative fluid volume, and lower urine output were independently associated with the need for antihypertensive therapy following coarctation repair (p<0.05).
