The numbers in parentheses represent the standard error of the estimate. According to the Bethesda classification of congenital heart disease, simple lesions with coexisting pulmonary hypertension were classified as complex lesions. CHD indicates congenital heart disease; PDA, patent ductus arteriosus; PH, pulmonary hypertension; TOF, tetralogy of Fallot.
