Pre-discharge car seat tolerance screening in infants with CHD: a single-centre review
The car seat test failure rate of our CHD cohort is higher than the published failure rate for premature infants. There was no relationship between cardiac physiology and test failure. DiGeorge Syndrome was the only comorbidity associated with increased failure rate. Failed car seat tests delay hospital discharge.
