Study Summary

This trial investigates how factors like CCHD, the mother-fetus environment, and social determinants of health affect a baby's brain development.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for pregnant women over 18 with a single baby diagnosed or suspected to have congenital heart disease requiring intervention within the first month after birth. It's not for those carrying multiple babies, or if there are known genetic abnormalities or extra-cardiac anomalies in the fetus.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to understand how abnormal blood flow in the unborn baby's brain might lead to neurodevelopmental delays and how this is influenced by factors like heart defects, maternal health, and social conditions. It involves using a Neonatal Neurobehavioral Scale on newborns.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study uses non-invasive neurobehavioral assessments of newborns rather than medical treatments, it does not involve typical side effects associated with drug trials.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Single ArmExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Maternal Hyperoxia (MH) will be administered to pregnant patients after their standard of care fetal echocardiogram has been performed at their scheduled fetal cardiology visit at ³28 weeks gestation. The evaluation at ³28 weeks was chosen since gestational age impacts both the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular response to MH.31 The evaluation will extend the duration of the visit by approximately 30 minutes but additional evaluations or visits for the study will not be required.
