Brief Summary: Re-operative surgery in children is extremely challenging and injury to the underlying cardiac structures can occur during sternal re-entry When institution of cardiopulmonary bypass is required in an emergency there are often limited sites for peripheral cannulation Injury to the heart can easily result in catastrophic complications and death
Detailed Description: Background Re-operative surgery in children is extremely challenging and injury to the underlying cardiac structures can occur during sternal re-entry When institution of cardiopulmonary bypass is required in an emergency there are often limited sites for peripheral cannulation Injury to the heart can easily result in catastrophic complications and death

Methods This will be primarily a technique paper The only clinical data points I am interested in are how many re-operative sternotomies we performed and on how many patients I will also need to confirm that we did not have any complications due to cardiac injury while opening the sternum I estimate about 450 patients

Primary Aim Present an effective technique for sternal re-entry in children

Secondary Aim Present a zero incidence of complicated sternal re-entry over the past 5 years February 1 2001 through February 28 2006 at Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta Egleston Hospital

Inclusion Exclusion Criteria Any child undergoing re-operative cardiac surgery through a midline sternotomy incision
