Abstract

Objective. To assess the intensity of an epidemic process and the risk ofpyoseptic infections (PSIs) in children after different types of open heart surgery for congenital malformations. Subjects and methods. The medical records of 199 patients under the age of 18 who had undergone open heart surgery for congenital heart defects were examined. The typical and prenosological forms of PSI were taken into account in accordance with epidemiological standard case definitions. Results. The incidence rates of typical and prenosological PSIs after open heart surgery in children were 95.5 and 150.8 cases per 1000 operations, respectively. The main clinical forms of postoperative GSI were nosocomial pneumonia, bloodstream infection, surgical site infection, urinary tract infection. The maximum incidence rates of PSI, nosocomial pneumonia in particular, were recorded after open heart surgery with a high risk of death. Conclusion. The higher incidence of PSI, including nosocomial pneumonia, after high-risk surgical interventions is due to longer surgery and accordingly prolonged intensive care unit stay accompanied by mechanical ventilation than during other cardiac surgeries.
