MODIFIABLE FACTORS PREDICT MORTALITY AFTER PROLONGED CRITICAL ILLNESS FOLLOWING CONGENITAL HEART SURGERY

Background Patients who suffer prolonged critical illness (PCI) after congenital heart surgery (CHS) are at high risk for mortality, yet the extent to which mortality after PCI is preventable remains unknown.

Description
Summary:Background Patients who suffer prolonged critical illness (PCI) after congenital heart surgery (CHS) are at high risk for mortality, yet the extent to which mortality after PCI is preventable remains unknown. [...]we aimed to determine the modifiable and non-modifiable factors predicting ICU mortality for patients with PCI after CHS at hospitals in the Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium (PC4). In multivariable analysis, mechanical ventilation days, cardiac arrest, renal replacement therapy, and unplanned re-operation independently predicted mortality in both strata (p
