| Objective To analyze the incidence, risk factors and management of complications associated with percutaneous intervention in those children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods The clinical data of 379 children with CHD, underwent intervention therapies in our hospital between Aug 2010 and Jun 2016, were retrospectively analyzed. According to the type of illness, all patients were divided into 5 groups:the atrial septal defect (ASD) group of 108 cases, the ventricular septal defect (VSD) group of 34 cases, the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) group of 182 cases, the pulmonary valve stenosis (PVS) group of 45 cases and the combined CHD (cCHD) group of 10 cases. And the incidence, risk factors and management of complications in each group were recorded and analyzed. Results The general successful rate of intervention therapy was 98.94%, with no outcome of death. There were 19 children who had complications, with an incidence rate of 5.02%, and in the ASD, VSD, PDA, PVS and cCHD group, the complication rate was 4.62%, 12.13%, 4.39%, 2.22% and 10.00%, respectively. Severe complications were found in 7 children, accounting for 1.85%. There was no significant difference between the complication group and the noncomplication group in the age and disease(P>0.05). The children having experienced complications recovered well after surgery and conservative treatment, with no new complication during the average follow-up period of 7.5 months. Conclusion The incidence of complications of intervention therapy is relatively low in those CHD patients, and the age and disease of patients are not risk factors affecting occurrence of complications. |
