Tiny Tickers aims to 1.Improve the detection and diagnosis of CHD; 2. Educate and support health professionals; 3. Advance treatment and care of patients and 4. Improve the experience of families affected by CHD
5,000 heart babies are born in the UK each year yet only one third of them are diagnosed before birth. A baby is born with a serious heart condition every two hours in the UK and despite congenital heart disease being one of the biggest killers of infants in the UK, only around half of congenital heart defects are picked up during routine prenatal scanning. It is absolutely vital that we provide a safety net for the 1,000 babies each year that leave hospital with their heart defect undetected. We want to increase early detection rates of cardiac conditions thus improving a baby's chances of survival and long-term quality of life.
