Key result
A retrospective study analyzed the surgical procedures, age distribution, and outcomes for congenital heart diseases at a tertiary care center in India, with no quantitative results reported.
Why the study?
Pediatric cardiac surgery is still developing in India, outcomes vary by lesion complexity, and available data on congenital heart defect surgical outcomes remain limited.
What are the surgical outcomes of various procedures for congenital heart diseases at a tertiary care center in India?
Observational
No

Descriptive single-center data on CHD surgery in India; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Paediatric cardiac surgery is still in growing phase in India and the expert and trained personnel for paediatric cardiac surgery is insufficient for congenital heart defects (CHD) cases. Moreover, various types of surgeries have been performed for different CHDs, and the surgical outcomes vary according to the complexity of CHD. There is continuous improvement in outcome of CHD surgery as advancement of surgical technique and post operative care with the time. However, the available data on CHD surgical outcome is limited in India. This paper defines procedure performed for particular CHD, their weightage, age group-wise distribution and the outcome of respective procedures. The paper also analyses result of surgeries performed for CHD at tertiary care centre.
