2 Accomplishment Advances in diagnostic methods and in the surgical and medical care of infants and children with congenital heart disease,over the last years, have resulted in one of the most successful rehabilitation programs that medicine has witnessed. More than 90% of children with CHD who survived infancy will live to at least 15 years. Nat Clin. prac. Cardiovascular medicine Jan 2006 vol3 No 1

3 Prevalence There are currently over 250,oo0 in the UK Approximately 1,000,000 in the USA Similar numbers in Europe & other parts of the world 1000, , ,000

4 Prevalence It will continue to grow as more patients survive early interventions and adult patients with heart disease live longer. The population of adult with ih congenital heart disease is estimated to be increasing at a rate of about 5% per year. The New England journal of medicine Jan. 27 2ooo

5 HOWEVER Most early interventions have not been curative. The group also includes patients who have never undergone surgery and those who are inoperable apart from organ transplant. 50% ACHD patients face the prospect of further surgery, arrhythmia, heart failure and if managed inappropriately of premature death. The increasing workload of caring of this group of patients is therefore both quantitative and qualitative. Int. J card 96:
