Neurodevelopmental outcome in Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia survivors during the first three years.
[congenital diaphragmatic hernia]
To
determine
neurodevelopmental
outcome
in
Congenital
Diaphragmatic
Hernia
(
CDH
)
survivors
during
the
first
three
years
of
life
.
Admitted
CDH
patients
were
assessed
at
the
age
of
12
(
n
=
18
)
and
36
months
(
n
=
15
)
using
the
Bayley
Scales
of
Infant
and
Toddler
Development
Third
Edition
.
Neurodevelopmental
results
of
CDH
patients
were
compared
with
published
norms
and
with
a
healthy
matched
control
group
.
At
12
months
,
receptive
language
was
mildly
delayed
in
6
%
of
patients
and
6
%
of
patients
demonstrated
mildly
delay
in
expressive
language
and
gross
motor
skills
.
Eighteen
percent
of
CDH
patients
had
severely
delayed
scores
for
gross
motor
skills
.
At
36
months
,
expressive
language
scores
were
mildly
delayed
in
21
%
of
patients
.
When
compared
to
the
control
group
,
CDH
patients
had
similar
neurodevelopmental
scores
at
12
and
36
months
of
age
.
CDH
is
not
necessarily
associated
with
impaired
neurodevelopmental
outcomes
during
the
first
three
years
of
life
.
The
aim
of
this
study
was
to
describe
neurodevelopmental
outcomes
in
Congenital
Diaphragmatic
Hernia
(
CDH
)
survivors
.
At
12
months
,
three
(
18
%
)
patients
had
severely
delayed
scores
for
gross
motor
skills
.
At
36
months
,
expressive
language
scores
were
mildly
delayed
in
three
(
21
%
)
patients
.
Neurodevelopmental
outcomes
of
CDH
patients
were
no
different
to
healthy
matched
controls
at
12
and
36
months
.
