Excerpt

It is well known that general anesthesia (GA) and mechanical ventilation have the potential to change hemodynamics [1]. In young children, however, some form of anesthesia is required during cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). We retrospectively studied the impact of GA on cardiac index (CI). …
