Summary

The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a low-cost hybrid remotely monitored parent-mediated and clinic-based multidisciplinary early intervention (EI) for low-income infants with CHD in Brazil. The intervention protocols will be administered according to age modules, families will be monitored weekly. High risk infants also receive supplemental clinic-based interventions according to developmental needs. Controls will receive standard of care and access to early child development and nutrition practices information from the Brazilian Ministry of Health. All infants will be evaluated at within a 42-month follow-up research outpatient clinic, called NeuroCardio Baby at Santo Antonio Pediatric Hospital, of the Santa Casa de Misericordia Hospital Complex, and affiliated with The Cardiology Institute-University Foundation of Cardiology (IC-FUC), Porto Alegre, Brazil.
