What are congenital heart defects?
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are conditions present at birth that can affect the structure of a baby’s heart and the way it works. They are the most common type of congenital injuries.
Around 1 in 4 babies born with a heart defect has a critical CHD. Babies with a critical CHD often need surgery or other procedures in the first year of life.
Causes
Not all causes of CHDs are known; however, environmental factors such as over-the-counter or prescription drugs may play a role in causing the condition.
