1456 Linda AllenI believe this would've helped my nephew who was born with a congenital heart defect...luckily he was one of the small percentage that survived past the first 20 minutes so that Vanderbilt was able to save him.

1462 JudieI have a granddaughter who was born with a heart that had to be surgically one year ago. We knew before she was born that she would need heart surgery. All parents need to know prior to delivery that their child has a heart defect and what can be done about it. Thank you.

1472 Tina Van NameI lost my son to a congenital heart defect. Don't let a baby go unexpectedly to a heart defect that could have been detected.

1476 Kristi WeathersMy son and my great niece both were born with congenital heart defects; my son's condition was diagnosed immediately; my niece was 3 weeks old before hers was diagnosed; she almost died. Her defect could have been diagnosed in the nursery had a pulse oximetry reading been done!!
1477 Megan MoorePlease make this test become part of all other regular newborn screening tests...it is so important!
1478 Tina M. Walppulse oximetry is such a quick, easy & painless way to test newborns. I have heard of too many people who didn't find out until much later that something was wrong with their little one, and simple pulse oximetry would have probably prevented the mistake in the first place!

1481 Kerri PenningtonI have a 9 month old baby girl with HLHS. We were fortunate to have known her CHD before I gave birth, however I know many families who didn't know their child had a CHD until a problem came up. It is so much more beneficial to know ASAP! A pulse Ox is a very easy means of detection, but could make a huge difference in detecting CHDs.

1498 Doug BI hope they are able to find more funding for CHD research in peds
1499 Susan SanfordI support these tests and all other research that is possible for Congenital Heart Disease in newborns. There are so many cases now a days that this should have been mandatory years ago.
1500 Tonya Kelseywe found out when our 8 year old son was 6 that he was born with CHD.I think this test is very important,if we would have had this test we he was born i would have known then.
