Critical Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD) affects thousands of families in the US every year. Early detection can lead to better outcomes and healthier, happier families.
The mission of CSHCN is to improve the health and quality of life for children with special health care needs, and their families, through early screening and detection, data integration, care coordination, education, intervention, and life transitions.
Newborn screening identifies conditions which can affect a child’s long-term health or survival. Early detection, diagnosis, and intervention can prevent death or disability and enable children to reach their full potential. Each year, millions of babies in the U.S. are routinely screened for certain genetic, endocrine, and metabolic disorders, and are tested for hearing loss and critical congenital heart defects (CCHDs) prior to discharge from a hospital or birthing center.
