Overall, 812 patients with a functionally univentricular heart who underwent initial SP shunt palliation were eligible for analysis. Patients with pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum and patients with a SP shunt as part of the Norwood procedure were excluded. Risk factors for 30- and 90-day mortalities were analysed using a logistic regression model.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Median age and body weight at SP shunt placement were 41\u2009days and 3.6\u2009kg, respectively. Modified Blalock\u2013Taussig shunt, central shunt and other types of SP shunts were applied in 689 (84.9%), 94 (11.8%) and 30 (3.7%) patients, respectively. Cardiopulmonary bypass was utilized in 410 patients (51%) for 128\u2009min (median, 19\u2013561). There were 411 isolated SP shunt procedures. Median hospital stay was 27\u2009days, and 742 (91.4%) patients were discharged. The 30- and 90-day mortality rates were 3.4% and 6.0%, respectively. Placement of a central shunt was identified as a risk factor for 30-day mortality, while lower body weight, preoperative ventilator support, right atrial isomerism and coexistence of major aortopulmonary collateral arteries and an unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect were identified as risk factors for 90-day mortality.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>SP shunt carries a high mortality rate in patients with a functionally univentricular heart when it is performed in smaller patients with complex cardiac anomalies.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/ejcts\/ezab077","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,29]],"date-time":"2021-01-29T12:09:34Z","timestamp":1611922174000},"page":"377-383","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Risk analysis for patients with a functionally univentricular heart after systemic-to-pulmonary shunt placement"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"60","author":[{"given":"Yujiro","family":"Ide","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Kyoto University Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hisateru","family":"Tachimori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Healthcare Quality Assessment, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Epidemiology, Translational Medical Center, National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yasutaka","family":"Hirata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"JCVSD-Congenital Section, Japan Cardiovascular Surgery Database, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8931-5927","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Norimichi","family":"Hirahara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Policy and Management, School of Medicine, Keio University, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9554-9861","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Noritaka","family":"Ota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, Ehime University School of Medicine, Toon, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7859-7853","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kisaburo","family":"Sakamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Mt.
