Article is devoted to the analysis of material on the relevance of congenital heart defects in the Kyrgyz Republic. The main groups of factors affecting the aetiology of congenital heart defects have been identified. Assessment of social, medical and legal provisions that have developed in cardiac surgery at the present stage dictates the need for monitoring before and after surgical correction, which can provide an improvement in the mechanism for providing medical care to patients. Based on the analysis, measures are proposed to improve the quality of medical care for this category of patients.

Pulse Oximetry Screening

ABSTRACTCritical congenital heart defects (CCHD) are a subset of congenital heart defects that require acute diagnosis and interventions in order to provide optimal health outcomes for newborns. The incidence of infants with CCHD may be as high as six per 1,000 live births.1 Pulse oximetry screening is a new tool used in many nurseries to detect the presence of CCHD with high reliability. This article includes an overview of CCHD and the pulse oximetry screen, including the primary and secondary targets, a test algorithm, reliability, cost-effectiveness, limitations, national recommendations, and implications for nurses, particularly their role in the NICU.
