For reasons that might not be totally clear, that the earlier you do it, the, the less the bleeding risk was. I think it was in the ballpark of 1% if you operate in less than 24 hours. At 48 hours, it was 5 or 6%. And then after it jumped up to maybe 15%.
▶ Ep 159 · 4:58
Surgical bleeding risk for CDH repair on ECMO was approximately 1% if operated in less than 24 hours, 5-6% at 48 hours, and jumped to maybe 15% after 48 hours.
▶ Ep 15 · 6:53
One key to CDH management is to promote lung growth after repair, optimizing contralateral lung growth rather than ipsilateral lung growth.
