We did not identify significant risk factors for arrhythmias post-HT. An Atrial extrasystole was detected in one patient at 96 months.

Atrial septal defect (ASD) is a congenital heart defect. Known as one of the most common congenital heart defects in children, ASD affects more than 2,000 babies each year. Preventing ASD Since ASD is a congenital heart condition that develops in the fetus and is present at birth, it’s not possible to prevent it.
