Number of U.S. Babies Born with CHDs

  • CHDs affect nearly 1% of―or about 40,000―births per year in the United States.1
  • The prevalence (the number of babies born with heart defect compared to the total number of births) of some CHDs, especially mild types, is increasing, while the prevalence of other types has remained stable. The most common type of heart defect is a ventricular septal defect(VSD).
  • About 25% of babies with a CHD have a critical CHD. Infants with critical CHDs generally need surgery or other procedures in their first year of life.
  • The prevalence of all types of CHDs, including critical CHDs, varies by state and by type of defect. 

CHD-Related Deaths

  • CHDs are a leading cause of birth defect-associated infant illness and death.
Infant deaths due to CHDs often occur when the baby is less than 28 days old (sometimes called the neonatal period). In a study of neonatal deaths, 4.2% of all neonatal deaths were due to a CHD

 During 1999–2006, there were 41,494 deaths related to CHDs in the United States. This means that CHDs were either the main cause of death or contributed to death in some way. During this time period, CHDs were listed as the main cause of death for 27,960 people. Nearly half (48%) of the deaths due to CHDs occurred during infancy (younger than 1 year of age).
My advise
1...   The child born with congenital heart problems will have less life span.
2...   If the child has blood pressure in his childhood it may lead to heart attack as his young age.
3...   When mother follows healthy habits before birth i.e. 1..  Eating healthy food so that her digestion will not consume more oxygen so that her child receives sufficient oxygen.  2.. Drinking sufficient water will help to flow blood and oxygen though out the body.
4..    When blood and oxygen flows in child's body freely the child may not have congenital heart problem
5..... I advise every pregnant woman to take healthy food and drink sufficient water to have a healthy child without congenital heart problems
6...   Every couple with to have Healthy child with full of life span but not less life span below four years as most of the children born with Congenital Heard disease will leave their body in early childhood.

Woman wants to get pregnant or pregnant should know the following::: The U. S.

Benefits of Minerals ..1 Brought to U.... http://successgain.us       and      http://successgain.info 2.... Major vs. Trace Minerals Minerals that are considered vital to good health, fitness, and mental well-being are divided into two primary groups: major minerals and trace minerals. Major minerals are considered minerals that the body requires in relatively large amounts and include calcium, chloride, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and sodium, and sulfur. The human body requires major minerals in larger quantities and are considered macro-minerals. On the other hand, trace minerals are required by the human body in much lower quantities and are considered micro-minerals. Trace minerals include chromium, copper, iodine, fluorine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and zinc. In both cases, consuming an adequate level of both the major and trace minerals is required for good health and wellness. For a more detailed discus...

Mineral Deficiency ...4 Brought to U.... http://successgain.us       and      http://successgain.info 6...  Potassium deficiency Potassium is a mineral that functions as an electrolyte. It’s required for muscle contraction, proper heart function, and the transmission of nerve signals. It’s also needed by a few enzymes, including one that helps your body turn carbohydrates into energy. The best sources of potassium are fruits and vegetables. The most common cause of potassium deficiency is excessive fluid loss. Examples can include extended vomiting, kidney disease, or the use of certain medications such as diuretics. Symptoms of potassium deficiency include muscle cramping and weakness. Other symptoms show up as constipation, bloating, or abdominal pain caused by paralysis of the intestines. Severe potassium deficiency can cause paralysis of the muscles or irregular heart rhythms that may lead to death. 7... Zinc deficiency ...
