Abstract
Purpose of the study. Comparative assessment of the incidence of nosocomial purulent-septic infections (PSI) in children after open and closed heart surgery for congenital defects.
Materials and methods. 503 medical records of children after cardiac surgery were studied. GSI was identified according to epidemiological standard case definitions.
Results. It turned out that the incidence rate of PSI in children after open heart surgery is an order of magnitude higher than after minimally invasive endovascular interventions. Hospital-acquired pneumonia most often occurs in children after operations.
Conclusion. The increased incidence of PSI after open heart surgery, as compared to endovascular surgery, is due to a longer surgical intervention and the subsequent longer stay of patients in the intensive care unit, where such an epidemiologically significant procedure as artificial lung ventilation is performed.
