Six Minutes Walk Test and Shuttle Walk Test in Eisenmenger Syndrome

Eisenmenger ComplexPulmonary Hypertension1 more

The purpose of this study is to verify the applicability Six minutes walk test and Shuttle walk test in assessing functional capacity in patients with Eisenmenger Syndrome. Patients will undergo three functional tests, being the six-minute walk test, shuttle walk test and cardiopulmonary exercise test on a cycle ergometer, associated with evaluation of metabolic and ventilatory variables and cardiac monitoring throughout the test.

Perioperative Outcome of Congenital Heart Disease Surgery in Childhood

Congenital Heart Disease

Congenital heart disease is the most common congenital malformation in the world with high morbidity and mortality. However, there is no data to assess the perioperative outcome of congenital heart disease surgery among Chinese cross-regional population. This study aims to investigate the perioperative outcome of congenital heart disease surgery in childhood from a chinese cross-regional cohort.

Fetal Growth and Pregnancy Complications Among Women With Heart Disease

Congenital Heart DiseasePregnancy Complications3 more

An increasing proportion of women with heart disease now go through pregnancy and childbirth. More knowledge about the risk of complications and adverse outcomes for the mother and the baby is needed to guide clinical care in this diverse patient group. The purpose of this study is to, in a cohort of pregnant women with heart disease; determine fetal growth, and risk of fetal growth restriction and preterm birth determine whether maternal blood biomarkers are associated with development of preeclampsia, the time of delivery and maternal and perinatal adverse outcomes determine the risk of hypertensive pregnancy complications The expected outcome of the project is to increase the knowledge of optimal diagnosis and treatment of women with heart disease that go through pregnancy to be able to improve clinical care and the outcomes for mother and baby.

Clinical Audit On Management Of Congenital Heart Disease In ACUH

Congenital Heart Disease

Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect in the United States, affecting approximately 0.8% of live births. Improved treatment strategies and interventions have increased survival such that 85% to 90% of affected children are expected to live well into adulthood, thereby causing a demographic shift in which adults now outnumber children with CHD, and more people with complex CHD are living longer.

Hypothyroidism With Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)

HypothyroidismCHD

Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the most preventable causes of neurocognitive impairment because early treatment is possible in neonates. The thyroid hormone is important for normal growth and development in infancy. After introducing national screening test using capillary thyroid stimulating hormone level, the incidence of untreated congenital hypothyroidism has significantly decreased. According to the Italian Registry of Congenital Hypothyroidism, congenital heart disease is the most frequent disease condition associated with congenital hypothyroidism. Congenital heart disease is also reported to be a risk factor for non-autoimmune hypothyroidism in children. In addition, intravenous iodine contrast media is frequently used for diagnostic imaging and therapeutic intervention in congenital heart disease patients. Excess iodine exposed by iodine contrast media may disturb thyroid function in adult and pediatric population. However, there is no generally accepted guideline for screening thyroid dysfunction in congenital heart disease infants. An increased prevalence of thyroid disease, particularly sub-clinical hypothyroidism, has been reported in Down Syndrome. In children with Down Syndrome, a possible concomitant sub-clinical hypothyroidism-related impairment of cardiac function or structure may worsen their clinical condition and can ultimately affect their life expectancy.

Prenatal Screening for Congenital Heart Diseases in the Antwerp Region

Congenital Heart Disease in Pregnancy

No systematic research has been done in the last 15 years on the accuracy of prenatal ultrasound of congenital heart diseases in Belgium. Nor are there any population-based studies available on this subject for Belgium. Based on the data of EUROCAT (European Surveillance of Congenital Anomalies) the investigators analyse prenatal diagnostic sensitivity of congenital heart diseases in the EUROCAT regions Antwerp (Flanders, Belgium)

Better Delineation of CDK13 Related Phenotype and Epigenetic Signature.

Congenital Heart DefectsDysmorphic Facial Features and Intellectual Developmental Disorder

CDK13 related disorder is mainly characterised by developmental delay (DD) and intellectual disability (ID), ranging from mild to severe, and malformation syndrome. The aims of this study are first to better delineate the clinical phenotype, as well as the neuropsychological profile, and the brain MRI characteristics; and, second, to study the epigenetic signatures in a cohort of individuals with CDK13 intragenic pathogenic variants. This work will conduct to a MD thesis of a clinical resident geneticist in France. Physician that will participate will fill an Excel sheet regarding the clinical and neuropsychological assessment. The investigators will be also happy to have either CD-ROM or a link to have access to the brain MRI data as well as a DNA sample with a minimum 0.5ug of peripheral blood genomic DNA. The investigators will gather the DNA in Montpellier genetic lab (Dr Mouna BARAT) and send the batch to the Dr Sadikovic' lab. Between 2019 and 2020, The investigators have already recruited data from individuals with CDK13 pathogenic variants from France and several European genetic centres.

Central China Congenital Heart Disease Associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Cohort Study

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

The study will recruit and follow up patients for five years patients newly diagnosed with congenital heart disease associated pulmonary arterial hypertension(CHD-PAH) from the investigator's hospital. The main aim of the study is to describe the aetiology, natural history and management practices of CHD-PAH in central China.

Long Term Results in Hypoplastic Aortic Arch Repair in Neonates Using a Glutaraldehyde Treated Autologous...

Congenital Hypoplasia of Aortic Arch

Hypoplastic aortic arch is a congenital heart defect that is prejudicial for the growth of newborns. It is often associated to other heart defects. Different surgical techniques exist to address this defect, but the literature is very poor with regards to the use of an autologous pericardial patch. Most use extensive dissection techniques or synthetic patches. Here investigators report institution's original approach using the newborns own pericardium for what investigators believe to be an optimal correction of the hypoplasia., with preserved growth potential.
