Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence and timing of autism spectrum disorder diagnosis in a cohort of congenital heart disease (CHD) patients receiving neurodevelopmental follow-up and identify associated risk factors. METHOD Retrospective single-centre observational study of 361 children undergoing surgery for CHD during the first 6 months of life. Data abstracted included age at autism spectrum disorder diagnosis, child and maternal demographics, and medical history. RESULTS Autism spectrum disorder was present in 9.1% of children with CHD, with a median age at diagnosis of 34 months and 87.9% male. Prematurity, history of post-operative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and seizures were higher among those with autism (p = 0.013, p = 0.023, p = 0.001, respectively). Infants with autism spectrum disorder were older at the time of surgery (54 days vs 13.5 days, p = 0.002), and infants with surgery at ≥ 30 days of age had an increased risk of autism spectrum disorder (OR 2.31; 95% CI =1.12, 4.77, p = 0.023). On multivariate logistic regression analysis, being male (OR 4.85, p = 0.005), surgery ≥ 30 days (OR 2.46, p = 0.025), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (OR 4.91, p = 0.024), and seizures (OR 4.32, p = 0.003) remained associated with increased odds for autism spectrum disorder. Maternal age, race, ethnicity, and surgical complexity were not associated. CONCLUSIONS Children with CHD in our cohort had more than three times the risk of autism spectrum disorder and were diagnosed at a much earlier age compared to the general population. Several factors (male, surgery at ≥ 30 days, post-operative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and seizures) were associated with increased odds of autism. These findings support the importance of offering neurodevelopmental follow-up after cardiac surgery in infancy.

Implementing neurodevelopmental follow-up care for children with congenital heart disease: A scoping review with evidence mapping. Dev Med Child Neurol 2024; 66:161-175.

Abstract
AIM To identify and map evidence describing components of neurodevelopmental follow-up care for children with congenital heart disease (CHD). METHOD This was a scoping review of studies reporting components of neurodevelopmental follow-up programmes/pathways for children with CHD. Eligible publications were identified through database searches, citation tracking, and expert recommendations. Two independent reviewers screened studies and extracted data. An evidence matrix was developed to visualize common characteristics of care pathways. Qualitative content analysis identified implementation barriers and enablers. RESULTS The review included 33 studies. Twenty-one described individual care pathways across the USA (n = 14), Canada (n = 4), Australia (n = 2), and France (n = 1). The remainder reported surveys of clinical practice across multiple geographical regions. While heterogeneity in care existed across studies, common attributes included enrolment of children at high-risk of neurodevelopmental delay; centralized clinics in children's hospitals; referral before discharge; periodic follow-up at fixed ages; standardized developmental assessment; and involvement of multidisciplinary teams. Implementation barriers included service cost/resourcing, patient burden, and lack of knowledge/awareness. Multi-level stakeholder engagement and integration with other services were key drivers of success. INTERPRETATION Defining components of effective neurodevelopmental follow-up programmes and care pathways, along with enhancing and expanding guideline-based care across regions and into new contexts, should continue to be priorities. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS Twenty-two different neurodevelopmental follow-up care pathways/programmes were published, originating from four countries. Twelve additional publications described broad practices for neurodevelopmental follow-up across regions Common attributes across eligibility, service structure, assessment processes, and care providers were noted. Studies reported programme acceptability, uptake, cost, and effectiveness. Implementation barriers included service cost/resourcing, patient burden, and lack of knowledge/awareness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Neurodevelopmental evaluation of toddlers with complex congenital heart disease is recommended but reported frequency is low. Data on barriers to attending neurodevelopmental follow-up are limited. This study aims to estimate the attendance rate for a toddler neurodevelopmental evaluation in a contemporary multicenter cohort and to assess patient and center level factors associated with attending this evaluation. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of children born between September 2017 and September 2018 who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass in their first year of life at a center contributing data to the Cardiac Neurodevelopmental Outcome Collaborative and Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium clinical registries. The primary outcome was attendance for a neurodevelopmental evaluation between 11 and 30 months of age. Sociodemographic and medical characteristics and center factors specific to neurodevelopmental program design were considered as predictors for attendance. RESULTS Among 2385 patients eligible from 16 cardiac centers, the attendance rate was 29.0% (692 of 2385), with a range of 7.8% to 54.3% across individual centers. In multivariable logistic regression models, hospital-initiated (versus family-initiated) scheduling for neurodevelopmental evaluation had the largest odds ratio in predicting attendance (odds ratio = 4.24, 95% confidence interval, 2.74-6.55). Other predictors of attendance included antenatal diagnosis, absence of Trisomy 21, higher Society of Thoracic Surgeons-European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery mortality category, longer postoperative length of stay, private insurance, and residing a shorter distance from the hospital. CONCLUSIONS Attendance rates reflect some improvement but remain low. Changes to program infrastructure and design and minimizing barriers affecting access to care are essential components for improving neurodevelopmental care and outcomes for children with congenital heart disease.

Abstract
Aim: This study sought to evaluate the accuracy of the Ages and Stages Questionnaires 3rd Edition (ASQ-3) in identifying developmental delay (DD) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) born at term who underwent surgical repair.Methods: Participants had to complete ASQ-3 and Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development 3rd Edition (BSID-III) at 12 and 24 months. A child was considered at risk of DD for a ASQ-3 domain when he scored below the cutoff (≤-1SD or ≤-2SD). A child had a DD in a BSID-III domain when the score was ≤-1SD. The validity for each ASQ-3 domain and for overall ASQ-3 was measured.Results: At 12 months (n = 64), overall ASQ-3 (≤-2SD) sensitivity was 88%, specificity 74%. At 24 months (n = 82), overall ASQ-3 (≤-2SD) sensitivity was 74%, specificity 88%.Conclusion: The results support the utility of the ASQ-3 for screening the overall risk of DD in children with CHD.
