Tracking outcomes during non-heart procedures in children with heart defects
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how children with congenital heart disease do during routine non-heart procedures, including medical or minor treatments that are not heart-related. It also measures how much health care they use afterward, which may help improve care planning for families.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are from birth up to age 21 (any sex).
- You have been diagnosed with a congenital heart problem (a heart defect you were born with).
- You are scheduled to have a procedure that is not a heart procedure (not heart surgery and not a heart catheter test/treatment).
- The procedure can be surgical or non-surgical, as long as it is not cardiac (heart-related).

This study looks at how children prepare for heart surgery or a heart catheterization. It will ask families to fill out questionnaires to help improve preoperative care.
This study is looking for children aged 1 to 5 years who have congenital heart disease and had heart surgery or a procedure in their first year. A special nurse will check for early signs of developmental delays, to see if this kind of screening is helpful for these children.
This study follows adults born with a heart condition to see how they do over time, whether they had surgery or not. It aims to learn more about their health journey.
This study compares how children who had heart surgery (to fix a non-blue-baby heart problem) develop compared to healthy children the same age. Researchers want to understand how well children recover after their surgery.
This study tracks how children and adults with complex heart defects fare after surgery. Researchers want to understand what surgical techniques work best at different ages and how patients recover long-term.
This study collects and analyzes small samples of heart tissue during specific heart operations in babies or children. The goal is to better understand how the heart develops after birth, which could improve future care.
