Pediheart Podcast #378: Sinus Node Dysfunction Following Congenital Heart Surgery

This week we speak with Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Audrey Dionne about a recent work she co-authored on sinus node dysfunction following congenital heart surgery. How common was this encountered and how often were either temporary or permanent pacing needed? Are there certain surgeries that are more associated with the need for pacing after surgery? Why is this so common following heart surgery? Dr. Dionne shares her deep knowledge this week on this surprisingly common problem.  DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2026.01.049
