Data regarding demographics, extent of surgery, comorbidities, adjunctive procedures, and cost were collected. A multivariable mixed\u2010effects logistic regression model was employed for analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We identified 3,669 unique pediatric ESS cases with 128 readmissions within 30\u2009days (3.5%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.9%\u20104.1%). Median cost of readmission was $980 (mean, $5,890; standard deviation, $13,421). The most common indication for readmission was epistaxis (17.2%), followed by nausea\/abdominal pain (14.1%). Respiratory infection (13.3%) and sinusitis (10.2%) presented a combined readmission rate exceeding that of epistaxis alone. Multivariable analysis indicated age &lt;3\u2009years (odds ratio [OR]: 3.41, 95% CI: 1.96\u20105.93) and a prior diagnosis of asthma (OR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.99\u20104.18) or cystic fibrosis (OR: 1.57, 95% CI: 1.00\u20102.44) significantly increased the risk of readmission. Extent of ESS and simultaneous adenoidectomy, septoplasty, or turbinate reduction had no significant impact on readmission rates.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>ESS is a relatively safe outpatient surgical procedure in pediatric patients, with an overall readmission rate of 3.5%. Clinicians should consider careful preoperative evaluation of very young patients and those with cystic fibrosis or asthma to optimize perioperative management and determine if postoperative admission is warranted, given their significantly higher readmission rates.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of
