We performed a quality improvement (QI) initiative assess optimize CIED follow‐up in New England area. Methods A regional network eight pediatric institutions was created.

The incidence of pregnancy in women with cardiovascular disease (CVD) has increased, yet little is known about placental pathology these women. objectives this study were to describe pregnancies complicated by maternal CVD and compare findings among categories CVD. A retrospective, single-center was conducted. Pathology reports for 264 placentas from reviewed prespecified pathologic which then compared against characteristics. Placentas associated congenital heart (n = 171), arrhythmia 43),...
Abstract Introduction Management of transvenous leads in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) can be complicated by venous obstructions and residual shunts. We present our experience performing concurrent lead extraction dilation/stenting pathways, including complete obstruction. Methods All cases recanalization vena cavae/baffles between 2017 2021 at Boston Children's Hospital were retrospectively included reviewed for safety efficacy. Results Eight patients, 4 female, median 38.5...
