Disease progression and variation in clinical practice for isolated bicuspid aortic valve in children
ConclusionsWe found little to no evidence of disease progression in children with an isolated BAV. Given the low risk, close follow‐up and frequent cardiac imaging for BAV surveillance may not be warranted for children. (Source: Congenital Heart Disease)

Optimus covered stent: Advanced covered stent technology for complex congenital heart disease
ConclusionsPreliminary results show that the Optimus covered stent is safe and efficacious for use in patients with coarctation of challenging morphology. A systemic trial will be required to evaluate this stent for more widespread practice. (Source: Congenital Heart Disease)

A multinational observational investigation of illness perceptions and quality of life among patients with a Fontan circulation
ConclusionsThe Fontan sample's more negative perceptions of CHD were likely a reflection of life with a more complex defect. Illness perceptions appear to account for unique differences in QOL between groups of varying CHD complexity. Psychosocial screening and interventions may be important treatment components for patients with CHD, particularly those with Fontan circulations. (Source: Congenital Heart Disease)
