Complex Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development and function of the heart. It is a congenital heart defect that occurs in approximately one in 10,000 people worldwide. CCHD affects all ages and can range from mild to severe. The symptoms of CCHD can vary depending on the severity of the condition, but they usually include symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, and fatigue. The condition can also cause abnormal heart rhythms and can lead to more severe complications such as cyanosis, decreased blood pressure, and heart failure. CCHD is a genetic disorder that is passed down from parents to their children through the transmission of genetic mutations. It is usually diagnosed through a combination of physical examination, electrocardiogram, and genetic testing. There is currently no cure for CCHD, and treatment is focused on managing symptoms and improving quality of life. The condition is usually treated with a combination of medications, devices, and lifestyle modifications. CCHD is a serious and complex disorder that can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life. If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with CCHD, it is important to seek medical attention and to work closely with a healthcare team to manage the condition and prevent complications.
