Abstract: Dr Congenital heart disease is a major cause of increased mortality and morbidity in pediatric patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Therefore, safe anesthesia and recovery time should be provided. It is important to determine the patient's risk score preoperatively. However, risk assessment tools are limited in predicting increased mortality and morbidity in non-cardiac surgery. The most important point in determining the anesthesia method is to know the current anatomic and physical situation of the patient's circulation and to make a specific plan. In these patients, the goal of maintaining anesthesia is to increase arterial oxygen saturation by increasing pulmonary blood flow. Therefore, using appropriate anesthesia and monitoring techniques with multidisciplinary decision-making and planning, and identifying high-risk patients based on risk classification, could reduce mortality and morbidity in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease. Can be reduced.
