Some CHDs are diagnosed during pregnancy using a special type
of ultrasound called a foetal echocardiogram. However, some heart defects are not
found during pregnancy. In these cases, heart defects may be detected at birth or

heart defect has been repaired. People with a CHD can develop other health
problems over time, depending on their specific heart defect, the number of
