Sections on quality of life issues such as neurological status, feeding, and late complications are also included. Unique chapters on the impact of congenital heart disease on health care economics, concerns of the pediatrician caring for these patients, and a poignant chapter offering thoughts from a patient and families with HLHS round out the book.
