Since then, all 50 states have passed laws or established newborn screening programs, making CCHD screening the standard of care in the U.S. A stakeholder work group including representatives from American Heart Association (AHA), American College of Cardiology (ACC) and APHL met in Washington, DC, in 2018 to review the evidence and recommended streamlining the current nationally recommended algorithm. This webinar provides an opportunity to engage and discuss the new recommendations with the authors of a manuscript recently published in PEDIATRICS that contain the recommendations from the stakeholder meeting. Implications for public health programs, rationale for the recommended changes and remaining data collection and educational opportunities will all be addressed.2020-10-15T16:00:00Z2020-10-15T17:00:00Zhttps://aphl.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_a0ntxaQ4SHOhb6gX6fX68Q, https://aphl.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_a0ntxaQ4SHOhb6gX6fX68Q APHL Blog Untitled [2] Corporate Members - Diamond Level Corporate Members - Platinum Level From APHL Membership Become a Corporate Member Visibility, Insight, Information Join as a memberSupport APHLView All Corporate Members It looks like your browser does not have JavaScript enabled.
