Back to the drawing board

Neonates and infants with complex congenital heart disease are at increased risk for adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes relative to children without heart disease. If risk factors for such adverse outcomes could be identified, alternative treatment approaches tailored to different phenotypes might be developed. Further, insights about the mechanistic explanation for adverse outcomes associated with certain risk factors may suggest strategies to mitigate the potential deleterious impact of the risk factor.
