Postoperative reactions of children and adolescents realistically prepared for cardiac surgery were analysed for acute and long-term responses. No cases of delirium or psychoses occurred in the 60 children while they were in hospital. Fifty sets of parents and children answered questionnaires 6 months to 4 years after operation (36 under 1 year, 8 from 1 to 3 years, and 6 over 3 years) and assessment of these showed only long-term reaction. Evaluation of reactions is presented by age and in detail. The children aged 2 to 7 years had the greatest number of negative reactions and the only long-term reaction also came from this group. Children 8 to 11 years of age had the least number of negative reactions and the highest number of positive gains. Adolescents, 12 to 19 years of age, were often concerned with their body image (wanted to be considered 'well', resented the scar, etc). From the standpoint of emotional stability and after effects, the 8 to 11-year-old group seemed to do best.
对为心脏手术做好实际准备的儿童和青少年的术后反应进行了分析，以了解其急性和长期反应。60名儿童住院期间未出现谵妄或精神病病例。50组家长和儿童在术后6个月至4年回答了问卷（1岁以下36组，1至3岁8组，3岁以上6组），对这些问卷的评估仅显示出长期反应。按年龄详细介绍了反应评估情况。2至7岁的儿童负面反应最多，唯一的长期反应也来自该组。8至11岁的儿童负面反应最少，积极收获最多。12至19岁的青少年通常关心自己的身体形象（希望被视为“健康”，讨厌疤痕等）。从情绪稳定性和后遗症的角度来看，8至11岁的组似乎表现最佳。
