Seizures in Infants With Congenital Heart Disease: A National Cohort Study
Infants with CHD have higher odds of experiencing seizure. Cyanotic CHD had the lowest incidence of seizure, while patients with single ventricle experienced the highest risk. Having seizures was associated with longer hospital stay and higher odds of mortality. This information may help in counseling families about the neurologic outcomes of infants with CHD.
