Additionally, CHDs have a significant impact on child and adult morbidity and disability. Objectives: The current study aimed to assess changes in prevalence and pattern of congenital heart diseases during the era of COVID-19. To obtain this aim all patients who attended the echo clinic at Abo Elreesh kids hospital during the duration between (June 2018 till May 2019) and from (June 2021 till May 2022) were included and were divided into 2 main groups To obtain this aim There was a significant increase in the prevalence of congenital heart diseases during the era of COVID-19 when compared with the era before COVID-19 (47.3% vs 43.3%; P=0.024). There was a significant increase in the prevalence of cyanotic heart diseases during the era of COVID-19 when compared with the era before COVID-19 (P<0.001). There was a significant increase in the prevalence of TOF during the era of COVID-19 when compared with the era before COVID-19 (P<0.001). Suspected COVID-19 during the 1st trimester was significantly associated with higher incidence of cyanotic heart diseases (P<0.001)., In addition, suspected COVID-19 during the 1st trimester in the current study was significantly associated with higher incidences of development of TOF, TGA with decreased pulmonary blood flow, CCHD with admixture lesion especially TGA with increased pulmonary blood flow (P<0.001, 0.017, 0.025, 0.044 and 0.008 respectively). Regarding acyanotic CHD in suspected COVID -19, during the 1st trimester in the current study was significantly associated with higher incidences of development of VSD and AS (P=0.040 and 0.040 respectively) ; تعتبر عيوب القلب الخلقية الأكثر شيوعًا في العيوب الخلقيةبين الأطفال حديثي الولادة وبرزت كأحد أهم أسباب وفيات الرضع. بالإضافة إلى ذلك، فإن عيوب القلب الخلقية لها تأثير كبير على معدلات المراضة والإعاقة لدى الأطفال والبالغين. هدفت الدراسة الحالية إلى تقييم التغيرات في انتشار ونمط أمراض القلب الخلقية خلال عصر كوفيد-19. ولتحقيق هذا الهدف تم تضمين جميع المرضى الذين راجعوا عيادة الموجات فوق الصوتية بمستشفى أبو الريش للأطفال خلال الفترة ما بين (يونيو 2018 حتى مايو 2019) ومن (يونيو 2021 حتى مايو 2022) وتم تقسيمهم إلى قسمين رئيسيين. فيما يتعلق بنمط أمراض القلب الخلقية الغيرالمزرقة قبل كوفيد-19 في هذه الدراسة، فإن أمراض القلب الخلقية المزرقة الأكثر شيوعًا مع زيادة تدفق الدم الرئوي هي عيب الحاجز البطيني الذي تم الإبلاغ عنه في 31.5% من المرضى، يليه عيب الحاجز الأذينى الذي تم الإبلاغ عنه في 14.4% من المرضى. .
