Abstract

aBstract
The present status of congenital heart disease (CHD) from the perspective of children’s health in
Nepal is not yet available. Cross-sectional analysis of all children with heart diseases attending
Kanti Children Hospital was performed. VSD, ASD, obstructive valvular lesions and cyanotic
heart diseases were the most common CHDs. Present data indicate the need for increased levels of
cardiac care in children, correctional surgeries, monitoring of the patients and awareness among
caregivers of CHD patients.
Key Words: Children, congenital heart disease (CHD), innocent murmur.
