Introduction: There is increasing demand for accurate early fetal cardiac disease (FCD). We assessed the accuracy of early fetal echo (EFE) conducted in our high-volume fetal cardiac program and reviewed the spectrum of FCD, associated genetic anomalies, and outcomes encountered.
Methods: We identified all EFEs performed from 10 to 15 weeks of gestation from 2009 to 2021.
Background: COVID-19 has caused significant worldwide morbidity and mortality. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is likely to increase vulnerability and understanding the predictors of adverse outcomes is key to optimising care.
Objective: Ascertain the impact of COVID-19 on people with CHD and define risk factors for adverse outcomes.
Introduction And Background: Mortality between stages 1 and 2 single-ventricle palliation is significant. Home-monitoring programmes are suggested to reduce mortality. Outcomes and risk factors for adverse outcomes for European programmes have not been published.
