Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A comparison of children with Down's syndrome classified according to having congenital heart disease has shown no differences in contact with the general practitioner, new episodes of respiratory illness, acute admission to hospital or mortality over the period of 1981. It is suggested that the prognostic significance of coincidental congenital heart disease in Down's syndrome be questioned.
