  • Other Comments:

    Tetra-amelia is not always a genetic disease, so the term it is a genetic autosomal disorder needs to be revised. For intravenous access in major surgeries like in this case a jugular access is a better option. Intra-operative monitoring with esophageal stethoscope and temperature monitoring is vital. They can have underlying lung hypoplasia and needs to be evaluated before anesthesia

  • Other Comments: Drs. Parray, Apuya, and Martin have done an excellent job of reviewing the literature in re this syndrome. They also showed creative insight in utilizing the rSO2 system to monitor cerebral oxymetry as a rough equivalent to NIBP. The pre-auricular artery could be cannulated in cases where significant blood loss/fluid shifts are expected. The risks to using this technique are well documented. The authors have certainly demonstrated a safe, non-invasive manner in which to monitor a patient with this syndrome.
