Abstract

Chapter 14 is about hemodynamics and the basics of the different pathophysiological states in children with congenital heart defects. Obstructive heart diseases are contrasted with dilated states, and the different effects of hemodynamic changes in different pathologic states are described. Basics about shunt diseases, valvular diseases, etc. and clinical and echocardiographic evaluation of these patients are presented. Chapter 14 lays the foundations for an understanding of the postoperative therapy described in Chaps. 15 and 16.
