Congenital Heart Disease is the first journal focusing on congenital heart disease in children and adults. Though the number of infants born with heart disease each year is relatively small (approximately 1% of the population), advances in treating such malformations have led to increased life spans for this population. Consequently, today most patients treated for congenital heart disease are over the age of 20. What are the special needs of adults with congenital heart disease? What are the latest developments in the care of the fetus, infants, and children? Who should treat these patients? How should they be treated? 

We welcome submissions on congenital heart disease from the following areas: 

Basic research of congenital heart disease

Clinical pediatric and adult cardiology

Cardiac imaging

Preventive cardiology

Diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterization

Electrophysiology

Surgery

Long-term follow-up, particularly as it relates to older children and adult congenital heart disease

Exercise and exercise physiology in the congenital patient

Post-op and critical care

Common disorders such as syncope, chest pain, murmurs, as well as acquired disorders such as Kawasaki syndrome
