title: Early Perioperative Management After Pediatric Cardiac Surgery: Review at PCICS 2014.
abstract: The sessions of the symposium held in December 2014 allow us to capitalize on the shared knowledge and experience that arise from both cardiac anesthesia and cardiac intensive care. During this session, topics that crossed traditional boundaries of pediatric cardiac intensive care and pediatric cardiac anesthesia were presented and discussed. This article summarizes the five topics presented at the symposium.
