Objective: To evaluate the relationship between center volume and inpatient mortality after inter-hospital transfer among patients undergoing pediatric cardiac surgery using contemporary real-world data.

Methods: The Kids' Inpatient Database (KID) was queried for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) cases (CPB) for years 2016 and 2019. Hospitals were divided into three groups based on terciles of volume: "low": ≤103 cases/year, "mid":104-194 cases/year, and "high": >194 cases/year.

Scuba diving was previously excluded because of hypoglycemic risks for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM). Specific eligibility criteria and a safety protocol have been defined, whereas continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems have enhanced diabetes management. This study aims to assess the feasibility and accuracy of CGM Dexcom G7 and Free Style Libre 3 in a setting of repetitive scuba diving in T1DM, exploring the possibility of nonadjunctive use.
