Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) has already been recognized as one of the important cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. The reported prevalence of CHD in live newborns tends to vary a lot due to various unrecognizable lesions at birth and lack of technical expertise. Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out in the department of Neonatology at Mymensingh Medical College Hospital (MMCH), Bangladesh from January to December 2010 to find prevalence of CHD in neonates. Results: Out of 6560 admitted neonates, 51 were found to have CHD. The prevalence was 7.8/1000 live births. Mean age was 10.2±9.8 days and weight was 2380.5±590.5gms. Respiratory distress was the commonest symptom (71%) followed by cyanosis (26%) and reluctant to feed (24%). Among the CHD Ventricular septal defect (VSD) was the commonest 15/51 and then Atrial septal defect (ASD) 12/51, Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) 5/51, Transposition of great arteries ( TGA) 4/51, Complex heart disease 4/51 and Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) 3/51 cases. Some associated non-cardiac anomalies like Down’s syndrome, polydactyly, syndactyly, cleft lip, cleft palate and cataract were found. Risk factors associated with CHD were diabetes mellitus (10%), hypertension (8%) and maternal infection (4%). Among the drugs, anti-pyretic by 20%, anti-emetic by 18%, anti-epileptic by 4%, vitamin-A and hormone each by 2% of mothers respectively. Conclusion: VSD and ASD were the commonest CHD in this study. Thorough clinical examination and proper investigations immediately after admission is essential, which may help us for proper counseling and early intervention.

“…11 Correa-Villasenor and colleagues reported an excess of white infants among cases with AS, PA, COA and D-TGA and a deficit of white infants among cases with PA. 38 Sadiq and colleagues reported an excess of complex congenital heart defects in Asian infants in Birmingham, and an excess of COA among non-Asian infants. 39 It has been suggested that consanguinity could have an impact on the prevalence of birth defects in some regions of the UK, but the evidence remains unclear. Furthermore, the national impact of consanguinity was felt to be adequately represented by the Northern Region population data.…”

HTANewborn screening for congenital heart defects: a systematic review and cost-effectiveness analysis NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he research findings from the NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme directly influence key decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC) who rely on HTA outputs to help raise standards of care. HTA findings also help to improve the quality of the service in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' that is being developed to improve the evidence of clinical practice throughout the NHS.The HTA Programme was set up in 1993. Its role is to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care.The HTA Programme commissions research only on topics where it has identified key gaps in the evi...

“…9 Early treatment of CHD may prevent a serious risk of avoidable mortality, morbidity, and handicaps. 10 The aim of this study was to verify the pattern and frequency of CHD in pediatric patients at the Cardiac Research Institute of Kabul Medical University. In Afghanistan most births still take place at home, so it is nearly impossible to screen all the new borns for congenital anomalies.…”

“…We found that among our CHD subjects, 20% had cyanotic heart disease and 80% had acyanotic heart disease, similar to results reported in both local and international studies. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] The ASD and VSD were the most common lesions in our study subjects. Of our CHD subjects, we noted that 103/235 (43.8%) had ASD, which was similar to results from previous studies in neighboring Pakistan, 32.1% at the Punjab Institute of Cardiology (PIC), Lahore, 39.9% at the National Institute of Cardiology Karachi, and 38.16% at the Siddique Sadiq Memorial Trust Hospital, Gujranwala.…”
