Flip-flop circulation: An unusual cause and case of neonatal desaturation
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anaesthesia - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Neonates are given anaesthesia for multiple surgeries however coupling neonatal physiology with child physiology is a common error made Circulation changes at birth from the foetal to adult type but neonates are prone to revert to foetal circulation with disastrous effects This phenomenon is known as flip flop or YoYo circulation We report a case of a premature neonate being operated for intestinal perforation with Yo Yo circulation intraoperativelyKeywords Neonate anaesthesia Flip flop circulation Yo Yo circulation Neonatal surgery Desaturation Hypoxia
