Kognitive Entwicklung von Kindern und Jugendlichen nach Korrektur einer Transposition der großen Gefäße

Abstract: (1) Cognitive functions in children with TGA are more impaired than suggested by the results of intelligence tests. (2) Psychological and neurologic follow-up should be mandatory from early on. (3) Previous studies have overestimated children's intelligence due to unrecognized changes of test norms.

“…They found no evidence of a detrimental effect of older age at operation in these children, as assessed by neuropsychological measures. Jedlicka-Kö hler et al [19] reported that the length of interval between operation and psychological testing, but not age of repair, was a significant predictor of intellectual functioning. O'Dougherty et al [5] stressed the importance of using multiple medical risk factors in assessing the risk potential of congenital heart disease children.…”

“…In view of our results (deep hypothermic circulatory arrest appeared to be a predictor of long-term behavioural/emotional problems), we agree with the conclusion of Oates et al However, care should be taken when drawing firm conclusions since in our study the duration of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and rate of cooling were not documented in a reliable manner. Several investigators have reported on the psychosocial sequelae of risk factors such as duration of pregnancy, hypoxia and age at surgical repair [1,5,7,18,19] . In a longitudinal study Weisglas-Kuperus et al [18] found that parents of very low birth weight children with a gestational age <36 weeks reported significantly more CBCL-Internalizing problems when their children were 3·5 years of age, than parents of a comparison group.…”

“…Some of them were conducted only preoperatively, most studies were executed short‐term after surgery, and only a few studies were conducted longitudinally (pre‐ and postoperatively with an interval between assessment). Several studies had methodological drawbacks, such as the restriction to only one cardiac diagnostic group, only cyanotic patients, patients operated upon with older techniques, or small sample sizes (Aldén, Gilljam, & Gillberg, 1998; Gomelsky, Holden, Ellerbeck, & Brenner, 1998; Jedlicka‐Köhler, Sinko‐Sanz, Schlemmer, & Wimmer, 1995; Kramer, Awiszus, Sterzel, Van Halteren, & Classen, 1989; Wright & Nolan, 1994). This hampers the possible generalization of findings.…”
