Study design: A retrospective database review was performed for all patients referred to KACC from July 2007 to March 2009 for cardiovascular evaluation because of a heart murmur detected during routine physical examination. This study included all pediatric patients from the neonatal period to 12 years of age who underwent echocardiography in our center. Patients with cyanosis, those with a significant difference in blood pressure between the upper and lower limbs, preterm neonates, patients with acquired heart disease, and syndromic or critically ill patients were excluded from this study. Results: Of the patients in the database, 245 met the inclusion criteria. The median age was 7 months (1 day to 12 years old), and the median weight was 7.85 kg (1.9–54 kg).
