[Anaesthesia in paediatric cardiology].
Diagnostic and interventional paediatric cardiology has become an increasing field of activity for anaesthesiologist in recent times. Besides a close interdisciplinary cooperation, the exact knowledge of the pathophysiology of the congenital heart diseases is essential. Especially the spectrum of interventional paediatric cardiology has extended considerably. In addition to traditionally intervention such as atrial septal defect closure and embolization of a patent ductus arteriosus, today's indications are also valvuloplasty and angioplasty as well as ventricular septal defects.
