Ages of the patients ranged between 2 days and 16 years. Seventeen cases were males and 14 cases were females. Elective cases were postponed. Priority was given to interventional procedures, and five cases were treated percutaneously. Palliative procedures were preferred in patients whom presumably would require long hospital stay. Corrective procedures were not hesitated in prioritised stable patients. Mortality occurred in one patient. Eight patients out of 151 ICU admissions were diagnosed with COVID-19, and they were transferred to COVID-19 ICU immediately. Three nurses whom also took care of the paediatric cases became infected with SARS-CoV-2; however, the children did not catch the disease.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951120002000_as4\"><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Mandatory and emergent congenital cardiac percutaneous and surgical procedures may be performed with similar postoperative risks as there are no pandemics with meticulous care and preventive measures.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1047951120002000","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,24]],"date-time":"2020-06-24T02:58:40Z","timestamp":1592967520000},"page":"1288-1296","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Congenital cardiac interventions during the peak phase of COVID-19 pandemics in the country in a pandemics hospital in Istanbul"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Murat","family":"Ugurlucan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yahya","family":"Yildiz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4108-6405","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Didem Melis","family":"Oztas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Senay","family":"Coban","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Metin Onur","family":"Beyaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gizem","family":"Sari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mustafa Ozer","family":"Ulukan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atalay","family":"Karakaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Binay","family":"Vatansever","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Korhan","family":"Erkanli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mert","family":"Meric","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Orcun","family":"Unal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Demet","family":"Demirkol","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yilmaz","family":"Yozgat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Turkay","family":"Saritas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Abdullah","family":"Erdem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Celal","family":"Akdeniz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Halil","family":"Turkoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/ciq005"},{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(02)01886-7"},{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5606\/tgkdc.dergisi.2020.09298"},{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21470\/1678-9741-2020-0161"},{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jocs.14559"},{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref11","first-page":"244","article-title":"Perioperative planning in the COVID-19 pandemic: vascular issues","volume":"28","author":"Akay","year":"2020","journal-title":"Turk J Vasc Surg"},{"key":"S1047951120002000_ref1","unstructured":"1.
