Abstract

Surgical advances have dramatically reduced mortality for critical congenital heart defects (CHD), yet significant gaps exist in what we know about the broader development of the growing number of long-term survivors. Our research investigates the cognitive functioning and physical activity of primary-school aged children with CHD compared to healthy peers.
