Neurodevelopmental Outcomes Flashcards

Q: What percentage of CHD children have neurodevelopmental impairment? A: 40-50% Tags: neurodevelopmental, epidemiology, high-yield

Q: What are the most common neurodevelopmental deficits in CHD? A: Executive function, attention, social skills Tags: neurodevelopmental, deficits, high-yield

Q: What defines HIGH RISK Category 1 for neurodevelopmental impairment? A: Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass during infancy Tags: neurodevelopmental, risk, high-yield

Q: What defines HIGH RISK Category 2 for neurodevelopmental impairment? A: Chronic cyanosis (independent of surgery) Tags: neurodevelopmental, risk, high-yield

Q: What additional risk factors contribute to neurodevelopmental outcomes? A: Genetic/syndromic, prematurity, prolonged anesthesia exposure, low SES, FTT Tags: neurodevelopmental, risk-factors

Q: What is CNOC? A: Cardiac Neurodevelopmental Outcome Collaborative - standardized developmental evaluations Tags: neurodevelopmental, cnoc

Q: When should CNOC evaluations be performed? A: Prior to school entry, middle school transition, high school transition, young adulthood Tags: neurodevelopmental, evaluation, high-yield

Q: What perioperative strategies are neuroprotective? A: Brain monitoring (NIRS), avoid hypoxia/hypotension/hypoglycemia, minimize inflammation Tags: neurodevelopmental, neuroprotection
