Brief Summary: The primary aim of this study is to determine the optimal timing for repair of right-to-left shunt lesions such as Tetralogy of Fallot defects

The secondary aim being define the criteria for failing medical therapy
Detailed Description: In the past children with right-to-left shunt lesions such as Tetralogy of Fallot defects were palliated with a systemic to pulmonary artery shunt This prevented cyanosis while the child grew to a size where complete repair could be undertaken With the improvements in surgical technique and critical care there is a push to do a primary complete repair for these defects at younger and younger ages These operations should be delayed as long as possible to allow for growth but not so long that there is unnecessary cyanosis and hypoxemia
