Overview

Antenatal diagnosis may reduce instability in coarctation; leaves open whether screening improves outcomes in prospective studies.

Structured PICO

Does antenatal diagnosis improve survival and preoperative haemodynamic stability in infants with coarctation of the aorta compared to postnatal diagnosis?
