Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The key objective of the Leuven growing-into-deficit (GID) follow-up-study is to test the hypothesis that children with a congenital heart disease (CHD) show more neurocognitive impairment at the second follow-up at 7 years old than at the first follow-up at the age of 4, compared to healthy controls.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

CHD group

Seven-year-old children with CHD who were four years old when they participated in Paediatric ICU follow-up study (i.e. first follow-up time point) (Neurocognitive development of children four years after critical illness and treatment with tight glucose control, Clinical Trials # NCT00214916). The children of the CHD-group underwent cardiac surgery as infants (=\<1year).

No interventions assigned to this group

Control group

Seven-year-old healthy control children who were four years old when they participated in Paediatric ICU follow-up study (i.e. first follow-up time point) (Neurocognitive development of children four years after critical illness and treatment with tight glucose control, Clinical Trials # NCT00214916). These children have never undergone cardiac surgery.

No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
