lungs via pleurae; parietal pleura adheres to the thoracic wall and superior diaphragm and visceral - clings to the lungs. Normally the pleurae can glide against each other but resist separation because of surface tension created by the lubricant - pleural fluid. Therefore when healthy thoracic cavity expands‚ the lungs are stretched out and opened up and when healthy thoracic cavity decreases in size lungs spontaneously recoil. The opposite forces created by inward pull of lungs (naturally recoiling

INTRODUCTION Definition; It is a complex clinical syndrome that can result from any cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of the ventricle to deliver adequate quantities of blood to the metabolizing tissues during normal activity or at rest. Causes 1. Although the disease occurs most commonly among the elderly (80% of patients hospitalized with CHF are > 65 years of age)‚ it may appear at any age as a consequence of underlying cardiovascular disease. 2.

following assignment I will be reviewing the evidence relating to the use of milrinone‚ a phosphodiesterase inhibitor that is commonly used to increase cardiac output in children after cardiac surgery. I will focus on LCOS in children and the pathophysiology surrounding this. I will also examine the biological action of milrinone and how it has been shown to increase cardiac output in children after
