2 Fig 1 (A) Proportion of common cardiac surgical procedures identified in The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Congenital Heart Surgery Database reported to the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). (B) Proportion of common cardiac surgical procedures identified in the STS Congenital Heart Surgery Database coded with CARD International Classification of Diseases-Ninth revision codes in the billing database. (ASD = atrial septal defect; ASO = arterial switch operation; AVC = atrioventricular canal; IVS = intraventricular septum; TOF = tetralogy of Fallot; VSD = ventricular septal defect.)

4 Fig 3 Annual rates of surgical site infection (SSI). Data reported to National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) are shown as squares. Data based on the case volume from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Congenital Heart Surgery Database as denominator and the confirmed SSI cases from the retrospective review are shown as diamonds.
