Associations Between Maternal Sociodemographics and Hospital Mortality in Newborns With Prenatally Diagnosed Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome

Abstract

ace and ethnicity, socioeconomic status (SES), and geography have been associated with differential outcomes in congenital heart disease death. In patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), lower SES has been associated with increased complications and lower 1-year survival. o previous study has examined how sociodemographics affect neonatal death among prenatally diagnosed patients with HLHS. The study goal was to investigate infants with a prenatal diagnosis of HLHS to understand associations between maternal sociodemographics and patient characteristics and hospital discharge mortality.
