Objective: This study aims to assess the role of continuous EEG (cEEG) background patterns and duration of cross-clamp time and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing cardiac surgery and its correlation with abnormal neurodevelopmental outcomes at 12-24 months on Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (BSID-III).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included infants with CHD and cEEG monitoring, who underwent surgery by 44 weeks gestational age.

Results: 34 patients were included, who were operated at median age - 7 days.
