Noninvasive evaluation of newborns with congenital heart disease.

Abstract: Over the last decade, diagnosis and management of neonates with congenital heart disease have been greatly influenced by the constant expansion of noninvasive methods. We classify the most common congenital defects presenting in the first 2 weeks of life, based on clinical presentation and hemodynamic characteristics, followed by a discussion of echocardiographic findings in the most common congenital heart lesions and how ultrasound techniques can help solve problems frequently encountered during the early postoperative period.
