Abstract
Ventricular assist devices (VADs) have positively impacted the management of heart failure. However, they come with a range of complications. Although general surgical complications have been assessed in adults with VADs, there is no study to date that has assessed general surgery intervention in the pediatric population. Fifty-two patients who received VADs from 2005 to 2015 at the Stollery Children's Hospital were assessed for general surgery intervention and anticoagulation status at the time of intervention. Eighteen patients (35%) had general surgery intervention; there were 21 nonemergency procedures and six emergency procedures performed. For nonemergency procedures, 89% of patients had anticoagulation held within 24 hours of surgery and 84% had anticoagulation resumed within 4 hours postoperatively. Antiplatelet therapy was not held perioperatively. In both emergency and nonemergency procedures, anticoagulation status was not a factor in the success of the procedure. This study shows that it is safe to have general surgery intervention on the same admission as a VAD implant provided an appropriate interdisciplinary healthcare team is involved with the perioperative management of the patient.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
