Heart and development checks for babies with liver problems
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at babies under 2 who have cholestasis, a liver condition, to check for heart problems that are present at birth and to see how they are developing. The goal is to better understand these issues and help families.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is younger than 2 years old.
- Your child has cholestasis, a liver problem where bile builds up and can cause yellowing of the skin and eyes.
- Your child was born at full term (not premature).

This study looks at how common liver problems are in children with congenital heart disease. It is an observational study, meaning no treatments are given; the goal is simply to understand liver health in this group better.
This study looks at how to improve care for babies with serious heart defects, both before and after birth. It brings together pregnancy and newborn care to help identify and treat these heart problems as early as possible.
This study uses ultrasound imaging of the heart to check how well the heart valves are working in children who were born with heart defects. It aims to understand valve problems better, which may help guide treatment.
This study follows children with severe heart problems born recently to see how their brain development progresses. It helps doctors understand what support these children might need as they grow.
This study follows pregnant women who have congenital heart disease (a heart problem present from birth). The goal is to monitor how both mother and baby are doing, which can help improve care for others in the same situation.
This study measures how well blood flows to the brain in infants with serious heart defects. The results may help doctors understand and protect brain development before and after heart surgery.
