The following variables were assessed: sex, genetic syndrome, type of cardiopathy, progress and complications. Descriptive statistics was used to process the data.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>: Down syndrome was more frequent as the main congenital anomaly, with a total of 22 patients for 47,8 % and the female sex with 28 cases representing 60,8 %. Cardiac shunt predominated in 33 patients (71,7 %), 19 of them suffered from Down syndrome. Most of the patients had a favorable progress. Malnutrition was the complication that stood out in 30 patients (65,2 %).</p><p><strong>Conclusions</strong>: the predominance of cardiac shunt, in several cases associated with Down syndrome, was the most relevant characteristic in the studied population.</p> |
