Do menopausal hot flushes associate with changes in heart rate variability in controlled testing : a randomized trial on hormone therapy?

Despite a trend towards echo guided septostomy and earlier arterial switch there is still considerable variation in early management of patients with transposition of the great arteries. Debate within the profession leading to a more standardised pre-operative management strategy would protect both the patient and the doctor involved in the care of children with complete transposition.
