Recommendations for Surgical Therapy (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
| Class I |
| "1. Surgeons with training and expertise in CHD should perform operations for AVSD.(Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "2. Surgical reoperation is recommended in adults with previously repaired AVSD with the following indications:" |
| "a. Left AV valve repair or replacement for regurgitation or stenosis that causes symptoms, atrial or ventricular arrhythmias, a progressive increase in LV dimensions, or deterioration of LV function. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
| "b. LVOT obstruction with a mean gradient greater than 50 mm Hg or peak instantaneous gradient greater than 70 mm Hg, or a gradient less than 50 mm Hg in association with significant mitral regurgitation or AR. (Level of Evidence: B) " |
| "c. Residual/recurrent ASD or VSD with significant left-to-right shunting (refer to Section 2.0, Atrial Septal Defect, and Section 3.0, Ventricular Septal Defect). (Level of Evidence: B) " |
