Key result
Management of infants with critical congenital heart defects requires a thorough understanding of hemodynamic physiology during the immediate transition from intrauterine to extrauterine life.
Why the study?
In infants with critical CHDs, delayed diagnosis and inappropriate management increase mortality and comorbidities, necessitating an understanding of transitional hemodynamic physiology to guide care.
This review highlights the importance of understanding hemodynamic physiology during the transition from intrauterine to extrauterine life for the tailored management of infants with critical congenital heart defects.
