The number not suspected before discharge declined over time, and only 6% were first suspected after discharge in the last four years of this eight year study. Four potentially life threatening conditions initially went unsuspected in 1996\u20138, but none after that. A policy of referring every term baby with a murmur at 1 day of age that was still present at 7\u201310 days resulted in 4.2% requiring cardiac referral; 54% of these babies still had a murmur when assessed one to two weeks later, and 33% had a structural defect. Parents said in independent, retrospectively conducted, interviews that they found it confidence building to have any possible heart defect identified early and the cause of any murmur clearly and authoritatively explained.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> Effective screening requires experience and a clear, structured, referral pathway, but can work much better than most previous reports suggest. Whether staff bring a medical or nursing background to the task may well be of less importance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/adc.2005.082636","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,3,17]],"date-time":"2006-03-17T20:24:42Z","timestamp":1142627082000},"page":"F263-F267","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["How effectively can clinical examination pick up congenital heart disease at birth?"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"91","author":[{"given":"C","family":"Patton","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E","family":"Hey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,3,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025090221292339000_91.4.F263.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/fn.85.2.F100"},{"key":"2025090221292339000_91.4.F263.2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Townsend J, Wolke S, Hayes J, et al.
