| Factor | Clinical signs and presence of thrombus |
| Description | A univariate analysis of the potential risk factors revealed that documentation of an intravascular thrombus was associated with candidemia. In multivariate analysis, long duration of TPN and documentation of a thrombus were associated with candidemia. |

| Conclusion | Candidemia following cardiac surgery for infants with CCHD was persistent and associated with high mortality. The variety of species indicates that this was not a common-source outbreak. Risk factors associated with candidemia were duration of TPN and documentation of an intravascular thrombus |
