Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: RESULTS: All 3 survived. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that the AREC system enables sufficient preoperative oxygenation in patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease and hypoxia in spite of all conventional therapeutic means. This provides a stable preoperative condition for elective palliation or correction.
