CT scans for tetralogy of Fallot in children
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses CT scans to help diagnose tetralogy of Fallot, a heart condition, in children. It aims to see how well CT works for finding this problem, which could help guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 1 day old and 12 years old.
- Your child must have been diagnosed with tetralogy of Fallot, a specific heart defect.
- Your child's tetralogy of Fallot may be part of a genetic syndrome.
- Your child cannot have other major heart problems that are not tetralogy of Fallot.
- Your child cannot have had any previous heart surgery for tetralogy of Fallot.

This trial looks at newborns with Tetralogy of Fallot, a heart condition present at birth. It aims to study the best way to treat these babies in the first month of life.
This study uses a CT scan to look at the coronary arteries (the blood vessels that supply the heart) in children who have congenital heart disease and are about to have heart surgery. It aims to help surgeons plan the best approach.
This trial is a registry that collects information about people who have had Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repaired. It may help doctors better understand long-term outcomes and improve future care.
This study looks at quality of life in adults who had surgery for tetralogy of Fallot (a heart condition). It uses heart MRI scans to see how well the heart muscle moves and how that relates to daily life.
This study validates a new method to locate abnormal heart rhythms using ECG (a simple heart recording) in adults who had tetralogy of Fallot surgery as children. Researchers will compare the new mapping technique during a scheduled heart procedure to improve how doctors find and treat dangerous rhythms in the future.
This study looks at how blood flow and heart rhythm may affect exercise ability in people born with certain heart defects that have been repaired or treated. It uses a specialized heart MRI and ultrasound measurements to better understand these problems and their causes.
