The details of diagnosis for each diagnostic category are as follows; Tetralogy of Fallot, mitral regurgitation, double outlet right ventricle, and transposition of great arteries for “Cyanotic”, ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect for “Left to right shunt”, and coarctation of aorta, aortic stenosis, and pulmonary stenosis for “Obstructive”. Mitral regurgitation was put into cyanotic group based on the final outcome of the condition like mitral prolapse or cardiac failure which will lead to cyanosis.
A Fisher’s exact test for the 3 x 4 table was significant (p=0.010).
