RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cardiac surgeons have a significant history of participating in humanitarian work; however, the outcomes in this arena are not well delineated. We sought to define and describe failure to rescue (FTR) in this setting by analyzing the outcomes of the International Children's Heart Foundation. METHODS: From 2008 to 2017, 3009 patients underwent operations during the course of an International Children's Heart Foundation mission. Of these, 1165 patients had at least one complication. These patients were divided into those who ultimately died (FTR group, n = 107) and those who survived (survivor group, n = 1058). Clinical presentation and outcomes were compared. RESULTS: The overall FTR rate was 10%. Patients in the FTR group were significantly younger, weighed less, and were shorter. Children who required a preoperative admission to the intensive care unit were more likely to be in the FTR group. Intraoperative data demonstrated significantly longer cardiopulmonary bypass time among FTR patients, with similar use of intraoperative blood product. Postoperatively, patients in the FTR group had more reintubations than survivors. Cardiopulmonary bypass and intensive care unit times were shown to be significant predictors of FTR. There was a trend between program volume and FTR rate. Program volume appeared to be correlated with FTR. CONCLUSIONS: Failure to rescue occurs at a rate of 10% in the humanitarian congenital cardiac surgery setting. The FTR patients were younger, required more intubations, and had significantly more diagnoses of transposition of the great arteries. Longer cardiopulmonary bypass time and intensive care unit admission were associated with increased risk of FTR.
