Join hosts Chris Knoll, MD and Lillian Su, MD both of Phoenix Children's Hospital as they interview their guests, John Kheir, MD and Jim DiNardo, MD, both of Boston Children's Hospital who discuss their paper, "Administration of Milrinone Following Tetralogy of Fallot Repair Increases Postoperative Volume Administration Without Improving Cardiac Output" published in Nov 2023 in Anesthesia and Analgesia. They don't shy from controversy and discuss the risks and benefits of milrinone, particularly in RV restrictive disease such as TOF and why norepinephrine should be making a comeback into all our CVICU's! Put your thinking caps on for this one and join the debate. Editor: Chris Knoll, MD Producer Lillian Su, MD

Join host Lillian Su, MD (Phoenix Children's Hospital) as she interviews Christine Riley, NP, CPNP-AC, PhD (Children's National Healthcare System) about building infrastructure in teams and systems to help prevent cardiac arrest in our most fragile CVICU patients. She discusses early work in DC in the cardiac arrest prevention bundle initially designed as a post cardiopulmonary bypass bundle and how sustainable success only came when the entire team was engaged in the process, particularly the crucial role of the bedside nurse. She also discusses her PhD work on overwhelming stress states and their role in cardiac arrest. Editor: L. Su Producer L.
