Abstract

This article is a review of the highlights of pertinent literature of interest to the congenital cardiac anesthesiologist and was published in 2021. After a search of the United States National Library of Medicine PubMed database, several topics emerged where significant contributions were made in 2021. The authors of this manuscript considered the following topics noteworthy to be included in this review: risk stratification in adult congenital heart disease surgery, physician burnout in pediatric cardiac anesthesia, transfusion practice in pediatric congenital heart surgery, and racial disparity and outcomes in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease.
