Infection in DiGeorge Following CHD Surgery

NCT00278005 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 400

Last updated 2012-03-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We propose a retrospective review of patients with DiGeorge syndrome having undergone cardiac surgery to evaluate the incidence of blood stream and/or surgical site infection. The hypothesis is that we will find an increased number of infections for this sub-group. We will compare the incidence of infection to children of similar age and diagnosis to evaluate for variances in the incidence of infection.
