(1)(2)(3)(4)(5) Children with CHD are surviving longer, and better understanding of the long-term complications of CHD is continuously emerging. Hence, it is important to be comfortable with the primary care requirements for these children, including physical manifestations prior to surgery and interventional cardiac catheterizations, as well as those concerning for potential need for reintervention, the latest recommendations for endocarditis prophylaxis, respiratory precautions and immunization considerations, and close monitoring of development and behavior. In this article, we will discuss the common types of cyanotic (“blue”) and acyanotic (“pink”) CHD and the role of the primary care physician in the health care of these children before and after surgery and interventional cardiac catheterizations. After completing this article, readers should be able to: 1. Describe newborn pulse oximetry screening for congenital heart disease (CHD) and clinical features of CHD during the newborn period. 2. Describe the clinical presentations and briefly outline management strategies of infants and children with different types of CHD. 3. Discuss single-ventricle palliation by using hypoplastic left heart syndrome as the model lesion. 4. Describe the evaluation and primary care management factors (including endocarditis prophylaxis, immunizations, and exercise restriction) in children with different types of CHD. Newborns with critical congenital heart disease (CHD) may present with symptoms of cyanosis, congestive heart failure (CHF), poor pedal pulses, or a failed newborn CHD pulse oximetry screen prior to discharge. CHD lesions that are dependent on a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) to support flow either to the systemic circulation or to the pulmonary circulation …

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The top seven congenital heart diseases include ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, atrioventricular septal defect, Ebstein's anomaly, tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of great arteries, and hypoplastic left heart syndrome.

    “The top seven CHDs include ventricular septal defect (VSD), atrial septal defect (ASD), atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD), Ebstein’s anomaly (EA), tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), transposition of great arteries (TGA), and hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) [3,4].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
