Incidence of CHDIncidence of CHD
The incidence of moderate to severe The incidence of moderate to severe structural congenital heart disease in structural congenital heart disease in live born infants is 6 to 8 per 1,000 live live born infants is 6 to 8 per 1,000 live births.births.
Data from the New England Regional Data from the New England Regional Infant Cardiac Program suggest that Infant Cardiac Program suggest that approximately 3 per 1,000 live births approximately 3 per 1,000 live births have heart disease that results in death have heart disease that results in death or requires cardiac catheterization or or requires cardiac catheterization or surgery during the first year of life.surgery during the first year of life.
