Abstract

Atrial septal defect secundum is a common type of congenital heart defect and even more common among children born premature. The aim of this study was to assess premature birth as a potential associated risk factors for cardiac morbidity in children with isolated ASD II. In this retrospective national registry-based case-control study all children born in Sweden between 2010 and 2015 with an isolated ASD II diagnosis were included. Association between premature birth and cardiac morbidity in children with isolated ASD II was assessed by different outcomes-models using conditional logistic regression and adjustments were made for confounding factors. Overall, 11% of children with an isolated ASD II received treatment for heart failure. Down syndrome was the only independent risk factors for associated with cardiac morbidity in children with ASD II (OR = 2.25 (95%CI 1.25-4.07). Preterm birth in children was not associated with an increased risk of ASD II cardiac morbidity.
