Despite quality improvement (QI) initiatives, many patients experience readmission soon after discharge. We aimed to identify risk factors for 30-day readmission and hypothesized that direct discharge from the cardiac intensive care unit (CICU) is associated with an increased readmission rate. A single-center retrospective cohort study was performed of patients discharged from the acute care cardiac unit (ACCU) or CICU from January 1, 2022 to June 30, 2024. Pediatric patients with cardiac disease and adults with CHD were included. Patients with a scheduled readmission were excluded. A total of 1,848 hospitalizations were included, and 223 resulted in readmission within 30 days of discharge. In multivariable analysis, no difference was seen in readmission rates between direct CICU discharge or ACCU discharge (36 [11%] vs. 187 [12%], p = 0.7, odds ratio [OR] 1.2 [0.8-1.8]). Readmission risk factors included single ventricle anatomy (odds ratio [OR] 1.7, 95% confidence interval [1.1-2.4]), chromosomal anomaly (1.8 [1.3-2.6]), cardiomyopathy (3.3 [2.1-5.2])), tube feeding (1.6 [1.1-2.5]), and increased length of stay (1.5 [1.2-1.7]). Tracheostomy (1.7 [0.8-3.1]), and prematurity (1.3 [0.8-1.9]) were not associated with increased risk. Weekend discharge (0.6 [0.4-0.9]) and surgical hospitalizations (OR 0.6 [0.4-0.8]) were associated with fewer readmissions. Risk factors for 30-day readmission included underlying medical complexity, single ventricle physiology, and increased length of admission.

Data in the pediatric Marfan population is limited. To assess the association between (1) MAD and ventricular ectopy (VE), non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) and ventricular tachycardia (VT); (2) MVP and VE, NSVT and VT and (3) MAD and MVP in the pediatric Marfan population. We carried out a retrospective single center study from January 2001 to January 2022 including all patients with Marfan syndrome who were ≤ 21 years of age and had a cardiac rhythm monitor. Of the 32 patients included, 12 (38%) were female and 21 (66%) had a positive Fibrillin 1 variant. The mean age at echocardiogram was 13.5 ± 4.5 years and median duration of cardiac monitoring was 58 (32.5-190.5) hours. Sixteen (50%) had complex VE (couplets, triplets, and/or NSVT). Fourteen (44%) had couplets with median episodes per monitor of 2 (1-4), 1 (3%) being polymorphic and 6 (19%) with fast RR (R-R interval < 350 ms). Six (19%) had triplets with median episodes per monitor of 1 (1-1) and fast RR in 4 (13%). Four (13%) had NSVT. There is a high prevalence of complex VE in the pediatric Marfan population. MAD and MVP were not associated with complex VE however, all patients with triplets and NSVT had MVP, mostly bileaflet. MAD is positively associated with bileaflet MVP and bileaflet MVP is associated with more ventricular ectopy.</p>","PeriodicalId":19814,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144964337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
