Substantial radiation reduction in pediatric and adult congenital heart disease interventions with a novel X-ray imaging technology

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2015
Background: Pediatric catheterization exposes patients to varying radiation doses. Concerns over the effects of X-ray radiation dose on the patient population have increased in recent years.

A Biobank for Long-term and Sustainable Research in the Field of Congenital Heart Disease in Germany

Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2016
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent birth defect (0.8%–1% of all live births). Due to the advance in prenatal and postnatal early diagnosis and treatment, more than 90% of these patients survive into adulthood today. However, several mid-

Cardiac Muscle Training—A New Way of Recognizing and Supporting Recovery for LVAD Patients in the Pediatric Population

Life, 2022
Patients with refractory heart failure due to chronic progressive cardiac myopathy (CM) may require mechanical circulatory support as a bridge to transplantation. A few patients can be weaned from support devices if recovery can be achieved.

Transition in Patients with Congenital Heart Disease in Germany: Results of a Nationwide Patient Survey

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2017
BackgroundA growing number of adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) pose a particular challenge for health care systems across the world. Upon turning into 18 years, under the German national health care system, ACHD patients are required to switch

Transcatheter Closure of Patent Ductus Arteriosus in Elderly Patients: Initial and One-Year Follow-Up Results—Do We Have the Proper Device?

Journal of Interventional Cardiology, 2020
Objectives. Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in elderly patients is an uncommon anomaly, and the duct itself is often calcified and fragile; therefore, transcatheter closure is more difficult.

CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS

Eurasian Journal of Medical and Natural Sciences, 2023
Congenital heart defects (TYN), also known as congenital heart anomaly and congenital heart disease, are defects in the structure of the heart or great vessels present at birth. Congenital heart defects are classified as cardiovascular diseases. Signs and symptoms depend on the specific type of defect. Symptoms can be harmless or life-threatening.

Congenital Heart Defects [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2000
More children die from congenital heart disease (CHD) each year than are diagnosed with cancer. Although CHD is the most common human birth defect, the etiology of the vast majority of CHDs remains unknown. The difficulty in elucidating the molecular and genetic bases for CHD reflects the complex nature of this and other birth defects.

Genetic Diagnostics Contribute to the Risk Stratification for Major Arrhythmic Events in Pediatric Patients with Long QT Syndrome Type 1–3

Cardiogenetics, 2022
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited arrhythmic disorder associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD). This study aimed to identify the clinical and molecular genetic risk factors that contribute to major arrhythmic events (MAEs) in patients with ...

CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS

Congenital heart defects (CHDs) represent one of the most common congenital anomalies worldwide, affecting approximately 1% of live births. They range from simple defects, such as atrial septal defects, to complex malformations like tetralogy of Fallot and hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
