Resource Utilization for Prenatally Diagnosed Single‐Ventricle Cardiac Defects: A Philadelphia Fetus‐to‐Fontan Cohort Study

摘要

BackgroundHealthcare resource utilization is substantial for single‐ventricle cardiac defects (SVCD), with effort commencing at time of fetal diagnosis through staged surgical palliation. We sought to characterize and identify variables that influence resource utilization for SVCD from fetal diagnosis through death, completed staged palliation, or cardiac transplant.
