Pediheart Podcast #354: Neurocognitive Dysfunction In Adults With Congenital Heart Disease
This week we review a landmark paper that came out this month on the topic of ACHD. How common is neurocognitive dysfunction amongst the ACHD patient population? What factors are associated with worse or better such outcomes? What interventions should be considered to mitigate these issues? What is the relationship between mental illness and neurocognitive dysfunction? Dr. Scott Cohen of The Medical College of Wisconsin and Dr. Ali Zaidi of The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai share their insights into their recent multicenter study.
