For infants that did not need hemodialysis after congenital heart surgery, one-year survival was 94%
Most infants requiring dialysis after congenital heart surgery received continuous renal replacement therapy rather than intermittent dialysis
Hospitals that use dialysis more frequently had 3 times higher hospital survival for infants after congenital heart surgery
Hospitals that use dialysis more frequently had double the 1-year survival rate for infants after congenital heart surgery
