Evidence-Based Assessment of Congenital Heart Disease Genes to Enable Returning Results in a Genomic Study

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common major congenital anomaly and causes significant morbidity and mortality. Epidemiologic evidence supports a role of genetics in the development of CHD. Genetic diagnoses can inform prognosis and clinical management. However, genetic testing is not standardized among individuals with CHD. We sought to develop a list of validated CHD genes using...
