Abstract

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the timing of the first cardiac surgery, the number of cardiac surgeries performed, and 30‐day postoperative mortality rate for children with severe congenital heart defects (sCHDs) in their first 5 years of life.Methods and ResultsThis was a popul...

Data were extracted for 5693 children with sCHDs born from 1995 to 2004. Subgroup analyses were performed for specific types of sCHD. Children with sCHDs underwent their first surgical intervention at a median age of 3.6 (95% CI, 2.6–4.5) weeks. The timing of the first surgery for most subtypes of sCHD was consistent across Europe.
