Abstract
The presence of 24-hour in-ICU attending physician coverage in children undergoing cardiac operations is associated with improved outcomes, including ICU mortality. It is possible that 24-hour in-ICU attending physician coverage may be a surrogate for other factors that may bias the results. Further study is warranted.
