Abstract
In the current era, continuous electroencephalographic monitoring demonstrates early postoperative seizures in 11.2% of a heterogeneous cohort of neonates and infants with complex congenital heart defects. Increasing duration of DHCA was identified as a predictor of seizures. However, the incidence of seizures in children with limited duration of DHCA was similar to that in infants undergoing continuous cardiopulmonary bypass alone.
