Congenital heart disease (CHD) remains a critical health concern. This complex and diverse group of heart defects, present at birth, often necessitates multidisciplinary medical care and intervention throughout an individual's life. The Research Topic titled "Advances in Understanding and Managing Congenital Heart Disease: From Bench to Bedside" addresses this challenging medical landscape by comprehensively exploring the latest developments in CHD research and clinical practices. CHD encompasses a wide spectrum of conditions, each unique in its presentation, etiology, and management. From genetic and molecular insights to innovative imaging techniques, novel surgical and interventional approaches, and considerations for long-term care and global perspectives, this special issue brings together an interdisciplinary range of contributions. These contributions promote a deeper understanding of CHD and the translation of scientific knowledge into tangible improvements in the lives of individuals affected by these congenital heart defects. With collaborative efforts from researchers, clinicians, and experts in various fields, the special issue aims to contribute to enhanced diagnostic precision, optimized treatment strategies, and improved overall outcomes for patients living with CHD.
The Research Topic "Advances in Understanding and Managing Congenital Heart Disease: From Bench to Bedside" aims to bridge the gap between research and clinical practice in congenital heart disease (CHD). Its primary objectives are to disseminate cutting-edge research, facilitate the translation of scientific findings into clinical applications, enhance patient outcomes through optimized treatment approaches, foster multidisciplinary collaboration, explore the global impact of CHD, and prioritize patient-centered care. By achieving these goals, the special issue seeks to improve the overall quality of life for individuals living with CHD, ultimately contributing to advancements in diagnosis, treatment, and support for this diverse patient population.
Our goal is to encompass a broad spectrum of themes aimed at fostering an in-depth exploration of congenital heart disease (CHD). We invite contributors to address specific themes that include genetic and molecular insights into CHD, cardiac development and morphogenesis, innovative imaging techniques for diagnosis and treatment planning, novel surgical and interventional approaches, neurodevelopmental outcomes of CHD, long-term care and transitioning to adulthood, the significance of multidisciplinary care teams, patient and family perspectives, and global perspectives on CHD. The goal is to create a comprehensive understanding of CHD, drawing on various disciplines and perspectives. This Research Topic welcomes a variety of manuscript types, including original research papers, review articles, clinical case studies, perspective pieces, and patient narratives, to provide a well-rounded collection that advances knowledge, clinical practice, and patient experiences in the field of congenital heart disease.
