| Data ID | 3841 |
| Factor | absence of prophylactic alpha-blockade |
| Description | By multivariable logistic regression, preoperative pulmonary hypertension (p<0.0001), absence of mixed venous saturation monitoring (p<0.0001), and absence of prophylactic alpha-blockade (p=0.0004) significantly increased postoperative pulmonary hypertension. |
| Biomarker | NA |
| Classification | A12 (clinical factor - treatment) |

| Application | risk assessment |
| Objective | This study examines risk factors for morbidity and mortality from pulmonary hypertension after operations to correct congenital heart disease and evaluates the impact of management changes on outcomes. |
| p Value | 0.0004 |
| OR | 0.35 |
| Conclusion | With a multivariable logistic regression model, preoperative pulmonary hypertension, absence of prophylactic a-blockade, and monitoring of pulmonary arterial pressure were identified as independent risk factors for in-hospital death associated with pulmonary hypertensive events |
