About BT Shunt

The Blalock Taussig shunt is a surgical procedure. It is used to increase pulmonary blood flow for palliation in duct-dependent cyanotic heart defects like pulmonary atresia. These are the common cause of the blue baby syndrome. This procedure is used to direct blood flow to the lungs. It also relieves cyanosis while the infant is waiting for corrective or palliative surgery.
