- Anesthetic Management for Elective Total Hip Replacement Arthoroplasty in a Patient with Eisenmenger’s Syndrome
- Abstract
- Eisenmenger's syndrome describes the elevation of pulmonary arterial pressure to the systemic level caused by an increased pulmonary vascular resistance with reversed or bi-directional shunt through an intracardiac or aortopulmonary communication. We report the case of 48-year-old woman with an elective total hip replacement arthroplasty for right femur neck fracture with Eisenmenger's syndrome secondary to large atrial septal defect. Anesthesia was induced with etomidate and rocuronium, maintained with desflurane 5 vol% and O창?싢 ?3 L/min. Mirinone and norepinephrine were infused continuously to decrease right to left shunt. The patient was extubated after spontaneous breathing recovery and transferred to the intensive care unit. She was treated with mirinone, norepinephrine, dopamine, and dobutamine for hypoxemia and hypotension. After 3 hours of admission to intensive care unit, the patient had a cardiac arrest and died 30 minutes later.
