| Objective | To determine incidence, predictors and outcome [intensive care unit (ICU) mortality and length of stay (LOS)] after postoperative junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET) in an unselected paediatric population. |

| Conclusion | JET occurred in approximately 10% of the unselected group of children with CHD. High CK-MB levels, CPB duration> 90 min, and a high IS were independently associated with an increased risk of JET. JET was associated with severe clinical consequences in terms of increased mortality and prolonged LOS in ICU. These findings emphasise that close attention to the incidence of JET is warranted in children after surgery for CHD. Further details on the pathophysiology of JET should be clarified in order to enable effective preventive measures. |
