Résumé

Objectives To characterize the prevalence of use of early remedial services and its associated demographic, medical, and cognitive factors in children aged 4-6 years with corrected transposition of the great arteries (TGA). Study design This was a prospective study of neurocognitive outcomes after TGA. Children underwent formal neu-ropsychological testing including general intelligence and a comprehensive battery of executive functions (EF) including motor and interference control, short-term memory, and working memory as well as cognitive flexibility. Parental reports on the children's behavior and EF were also evaluated. Demographic factors and preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative factors as well as cognitive factors were examined according to the current use of remediation. Results Forty-five patients (67% male) and their parents participated in this study. Twenty-four (53%) patients were receiving remedial services. Male sex, a postnatal diagnosis of TGA, and a longer postoperative intensive care unit stay were significantly associated with use of remediation. Children receiving remediation had lower EF scores, had more severe EF deficits as observed by formal testing, and were rated as having more behavioral daily life difficulties. However, in the group without remediation, 13 children (43%) also displayed EF deficits rated as moderate to severe. Conclusions Demographic and medical factors could help identify children at higher risk for neurocognitive delays.
