Abstract

Background: Congenital heart disease defined as a complex birth condition exhibiting parameters general features across kids within various geographical regions.
We aimed to determine the frequency of complex congenital heart diseases in neonates in Fayoum governorate.
Methods: Two authors conducted an independent search of online databases, involving EMBASE, PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, utilizing a combination of MeSH and text keywords such as 'congenital heart disease', 'heart abnormality', 'congenital heart defect', 'occurrence', 'frequency', 'heart malformation', 'epidemiology', 'frequency', and 'neonates'. This research involved investigations examining the occurrence of CHD between cases aged from birth to twelve years. Initially, our selection criteria focused on research examining the occurrence of congenital heart disease at birth. Upon a thorough review, most of this research focused on the age category of zero to one years, except for a single study that included a wider age range of zero to twelve years. (2) research design: cross-sectional and cohort research. (3)
Results: The occurrence of congenital heart disease was the consequence.
The prevalence of CHD was relatively elevated. Atrial septal and ventricular abnormalities had the highest prevalence, with a greater incidence in male neonates than in female infants. The enhancement of diagnostic facilities in various areas significantly impacts the reduction of these anomalies' prevalence
Conclusion: The prevalence of CHD was relatively elevated with Atrial septal and ventricular abnormalities had the highest prevalence, with a greater incidence in male neonates than in female infants.
