Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Medicine - Department of Pediatrics Summary: Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is considered one of the most common congenital defects in neonates.There are marked advances in surgical, medical and nursing care for infants with complex CHD. These led to an increase in survival and a growing population of infants with comorbidities (Medoff-Cooper et al., 2016). Aim of the work: Neurodevelopmental assessment of infants with CHD and identify the high-risk groups for developmental delay among them.Methodology: We conducted a prospective cross-sectional study for 100 infants with CHD who are on regular follow up at the Pediatric Cardiology Unit or its outpatient clinics in Cairo University Children{u2019}s Hospital. Neurodevelopmental assessment was done by assessment of developmental milestones and by using Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scale (VABS) and Portage Program. We searched for risk factors for developmental delay in these infants.Then, we compared between the infants as regards different risk factors of developmental delay and results of portage and VABS. Results: The median age of our study group is 12.5 months. By using Portage Program, the median of general developmental age is 11 months, while by using VABS, the median equivalent age is 9.5 months, and both are lower than the median of age of infants included in our study.There was a statistically significant developmental affection of infant with risk factors especially prematurity, formula fed infant, anemia, cyanosis, underweight, stunted infants, history of NICU admission and abnormal EEG
