The objectives of this study were to identify the additional CHD counseling-specific challenges and areas for future intervention, using a practical communication framework. This is a secondary analysis of qualitative data provided by caretakers of infants who received congenital heart surgery from 2019 to 2020 in the Chicagoland area. While the survey in the primary study pertained to barriers in obtaining prenatal diagnosis, respondents with both prenatal and postnatal diagnosis reported challenges to effective counseling. Qualitative data measuring counseling challenges were collected from semi-structured phone interviews. Thematic analysis was performed using an inductive approach. Themes were organized into five domains using SPIKES (Setting, Perception, Invitation, Knowledge, Empathy, and Summarize/Strategy), a previously validated framework to help clinicians effectively break bad news. Among 160 survey respondents, 35 (21.9%) reported a challenge during CHD counseling that they received. In total, 12 challenges were identified and spanned all six SPIKES domains. The three most common challenges were as follows: perception of repeated imaging studies for accurate diagnosis or management (n = 19, Knowledge), the lack of cardiologist presence at the time of initial CHD detection (n = 8, Setting), and insufficient information provided about the CHD diagnosis (n = 7, Knowledge). Patients perceive counseling as a key component of prenatal diagnosis of CHD and identify the challenges that exist at all stages of the counseling process. These findings suggest that effective counseling extends beyond conveying information about anatomy and prognosis.</p>","PeriodicalId":19814,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":"947-955"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11903537/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141440747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A survey was conducted among program directors (PDs) of congenital interventional training programs across the globe. The survey gathered data on training pathways, case volumes, types of procedures performed, trainee competency assessment, and the role of ongoing mentorship. Of the 79 PDs who completed the survey, it was observed that training pathways and case volumes varied significantly, particularly between the United States and other countries. Most PDs reported an annual laboratory case volume of >500 congenital cardiac cases, with most cases being interventional. While trainees demonstrated competency in simple procedures (diagnostic cases, simple ASD closure), complex interventions (such as patent ductus arteriosus closure in premature infants) require ongoing mentorship for graduates. PDs recommended a minimum case volume of 400 total cases for trainees, including 250 interventional cases. In addition to case volumes, assessing trainee competency was deemed important, with clinical reasoning, judgment, skillset, teamwork, and complication management being key areas of evaluation. The study highlights the variability in congenital interventional cardiology training and the need for ongoing mentorship during the early career years. External mentorship programs, facilitated by national and international societies, are proposed to provide critical support for early career interventionalists thus enhancing patient care for congenital heart disease.

The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and coincidence rate of 2D-CDU, 4D STIC and 2D-CDU combined with 4D STIC were compared. The results of 2D-CDU, 4D STIC and 2D-CDU combined with 4D STIC screening were analyzed for consistency using the results of postpartum diagnosis as the gold standard. Moreover, effects of maternal gestational factors on fetal cardiac malformations by univariate and multivariate analysis. 2D-CDU combined with 4D STIC showed significantly higher section display number than 2D-CDU or 4D STIC in the view of ductal arch, aortic arch, and aortic short-axis. A total of 45 cases of fetal congenital heart malformation were detected in 135 patients in the second trimester, 40, 38 or 42 cases were detected by 2D-CDU, 4D STIC or 2D-CDU combined with 4D STIC, respectively.

Univariate and multivariate regression analysis revealed that maternal age ≥ 35, drinking during pregnancy, and history of adverse pregnancy and childbirth were all independent risk factors for fetal cardiac malformations, while folic acid supplementation was an independent protective factor for fetal cardiac malformations. 2D-CDU combined with 4D echocardiography may be superior to single 2D-CDU or 4D STIC in the screening of fetal congenital heart malformation in the second trimester.

The aim of this study is to compare outcomes and results of cardiac surgery in ACHD patients with a reference population of adults with acquired cardiac disease. Retrospective study of 5053 consecutive patients older than 18 years hospitalized for cardiac surgery during a 5-years period in our Institution. Two groups of patients were identified. Group I: 419 patients operated for congenital heart disease; Group II: 4634 patients operated for acquired heart disease. In each Group were identified low, medium, and high-risk patients, according to validated scores. Right ventricular outflow tract surgery was the most frequent procedure in Group I, while coronary artery by-pass grafting was the most common in Group II. Patients with ACHD were younger (37.8 vs. 67.7 years), with higher number of previous operations (32.1% vs. 6.9%), had longer post-ICU hospital stay (11 vs. 8 days) but had lower ICU stay (1 vs. 2 days), shorter assisted mechanical ventilation (12 vs. 14 h) and lower surgical mortality (1 vs. 3.7%) (all p < 0.001). No differences were found in term of post-operative complications (12.4 vs. 15%). The surgical treatment of ACHD patients can be done with excellent results and if compared with acquired cardiac disease patients they have better results with shorter ICU stay and lower mortality.</p>","PeriodicalId":19814,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":"930-938"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11903596/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141158299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
