CHD Toolkit Resources

Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common birth defects and require lifelong cardiology care. Despite this need, many individuals with CHDs often fall out of care, and about 61% do not see a cardiology specialist after age 18 years old.

The following resources are intended to support physicians (pediatricians, obstetrician-gynecologists, internal medicine, emergency medicine and family medicine physicians), and help improve the continuity of care between primary care and specialty cardiac care physicians. These resources will help physicians identify opportunities to help ensure that people with CHDs get the specialized care they need to stay healthy across the lifespan.
