Advances in paediatric interventional cardiology since 2000.

Interventional paediatric and congenital cardiology is expanding at a rapid pace. Validated techniques (such as aortic or pulmonary valve dilatations and occlusion of persistent ductus arteriosus and atrial septal defects) are improving thanks to the use of smaller introducers and sheaths, low-profile balloons and novel devices. Moreover, catheter-based interventions have emerged as an attractive alternative to surgery in other fields: pulmonary valve replacement, balloon and stent implantation for native and recurrent coarctation, and percutaneous closure of ventricular septal defects. On the other hand, percutaneous interventions in the paediatric population may be limited by patient size or the anatomy of the defect. Hybrid approaches involving both cardiac interventionists and surgeons are being developed to overcome these limitations. Based on a better understanding of cardiac development, fetal cardiac interventions are being attempted in order to alter the history of severe obstructive lesions. Finally, some interventional procedures still carry a low success rate-for example, pulmonary vein stenosis, even with the use of conventional stents. Biodegradable stents and devices are being developed and may find an application in this setting as well as in others. The purpose of this review is to highlight the advances in paediatric interventional cardiology since the beginning of the third millennium.

Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture Annual Report, 1999-2000

The Leopold Center was established by the Iowa Legislature as part of the Iowa Groundwater Protection Act of 1987. Its mandated missions are to identify impacts of agricultural practices, contribute to the development of profitable farming systems that conserve natural resources, and cooperate with Iowa State University Extension to inform the public of new findings.Information for this report was compiled by Leopold Center staff with the help of its researchers and educators who are committed to improving Iowa agriculture and the lives of Iowans.
