MASTER CHART INTRODUCTION Congenital Heart Disease is the most common type of birth defect, accounting for approximately 0.8% of live births.(1) Critical Congenital Heart disease (CCHD) are defined as structural heart defects that are associated with significant mortality without intensive intervention. Critical congenital heart disease is a major cause of infant death worldwide. An early diagnosis & intervention can significantly decrease the mortality & morbidity. Morever , studies shows 30 -50 % of infants with CCHD are not identified before getting discharged in postnatal period. Of all life threatening cardiovascular malformations reported, nearly 30 % of infants were diagnosed after discharge from their birth hospital & 5% after death. Nearly 10 % of all infants with CCHD die before a timely diagnosis is made. So this ensues an existence of a diagnostic gap. CCHDs are often are associated with hypoxia among infants during new born period. Use of early routine spo2 monitoring through pulse oximetry can help in early detection of CCHD and can be tried to fill this diagnostic gap existing so far.. 1 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES 1. To assess the role of spo2 monitoring through pulse oximetry among newborn infants in early detection of critical congenital heart disease 2. To compare the sensitivity and specificity of Pulse oximetry SpO2 monitoring with other modalities associated with the diagnosis of critical congenital heart disease. 2 REVIEW OF LITERATURE Congenital heart disease(CHD) is the commonest of all birth defects encountered in newborn. These defects generally result from the abnormal development of a normal structure in fetus or failure of progression beyond the early stage of embryonic or early fetal development. Estimated prevalence of CHD is 6 to 8 per 1000 live births, with higher rate of still birth, spontaneous abortion and prematurity occurring among babies with congenital heart disease. EPIDEMIOLOGY Congenital Heart disease contributes to 28% of all major congenital malformations(1) With current CHD birth prevalence approximately 1.35 million live births per year were with CHD , representing a major health issue. Among World population, Asia reported to have highest birth prevalence of CHD accounting for 9.3 per 1000 live births. Among Neonatal deaths, 4.2% of deaths are due to CHD according to a study.(2) 3 ETIOPATHOGENESIS The etiological factor of most CHD is unknown. In the past, circumstances were even more worst because many children with CHD did not survive to adult age as investigations such as fetal echocardiography and effective medical and surgical treatment modalities were not available. ETIOLOGY Several factors have been linked with the development of congenital heart disease Multifactorial (85%) Genetic Factors (10 -12%) Chromosomal anomalies such as Down’s syndrome , turner syndrome, 22q11.2 syndrome, Noonan syndrome, Alagille syndrome etc.. etc are associated with CHD. Mutations or aberrations in genes such as CFC1, FOXH1, GATA4, GATA6, HAND1, MED13L, GDF1, GJA1, NKX2- 5, NKX2-6,NOTCH1, SMAD6 are more commonly associated with development of critical congenital Heart disease. Environmental Factors (1-2%) 4 Congenital intrauterine infections such as rubella or maternal intake of alcohol contributes to development of CHD in newborn Maternal Factors (1-2%) Maternal Connective tissue disorders like SLE, maternal diabetes, maternal exposure of teratogenic drugs such as warfarin, phenytoin, retinoic acid, Thalidomide, Oral contraceptive pills, lithium leads to development of CHD.

Critical Congenital Heart disease can be further divided into 2 categories based on hypoxemia as their clinical picture. 1. Cyanotic(Hypoxemic) 2. May be Acyanotic( not hypoxemic) Cyanotic type These CCHDs mostly consistently present with significant hypoxemia, therefore can be diagnosed by pulse oximetry screening. CCHDs included in this category are Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS Truncus arteriosus Truncus arteriosus Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) Total Anamalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) Transposition of great arteries (TGA) 7 Tricuspid Atresia Pulmonary Atresia, with intact septum. Not always cyanotic. These CCHDs are not always cyanotic, hence less likely to be detected by pulse oximetry screening. Aortic arch atresia Ebstein anomaly
