Abstract

Introduction: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a common cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Currently, total correction surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is considered the optimal method of treatment. However, CPB also has adverse effects, causing damage to organs such as the kidneys, brain, and heart. Based on these observations, we conducted this study to evaluate changes in certain hematological and biochemical indices in pediatric patients before and after total correction of Tetralogy of Fallot. Subjects and Methods: A descriptive, retrospective study was conducted on 175 patients who met the inclusion criteria. All patients were under 16 years old, diagnosed with Tetralogy of Fallot, and underwent total correction surgery. Results: The percentages of patients with decreased RBC, HGB, and HCT post-surgery were 82.9%, 69.7%, and 76.0%, respectively. The percentages of patients with increased Urea, Creatinine, GOT, and GPT post-surgery were 73.1%, 57.1%, 70.3%, and 64.0%, respectively. Conclusion: Patients showed positive changes in hematological indices after surgery, though liver and kidney effects were common.
