PY - 2022 T2 - Current Diagnosis & Treatment: Pediatrics, 26e AB - Eight in 1000 infants are born with a congenital heart defect. Advances in medical and surgical care allow more than 90% of such children to enter adulthood. Pediatric cardiac care includes not only the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart disease but also the prevention of risk factors for adult cardiovascular disease—obesity, smoking, and hyperlipidemia. Familial and acquired heart diseases, such as Kawasaki disease (KD), viral myocarditis, cardiomyopathies, and rheumatic heart disease, are also a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children.
