Resuscitation Registry in CHD

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Cardiac Arrest, Congenital Heart Disease

In brief

Children with congenital heart defects are far more likely to suffer a cardiovascular arrest and be in the need of cardiopulmonary resuscitation than healthy children or those with diseases of other organ systems, especially after cardiothoracic surgery. Due to a lack of data, the exact number of resuscitations in this patient cohort, as well as the morbidity and mortality, is unknown. This study aims to register all cardiovascular arrests in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease and study the mortality and morbidity with a special focus on the neurodevelopmental outcome.
