Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD)

During the research year (usually the second year of fellowship), fellows attend the Adults with Congenital Heart Disease clinic every eight weeks over a twelve month period. Working with faculty from Pediatric Cardiology, this rotation provides a comprehensive exposure to the diagnosis, assessment and management of outpatient presentations of most forms of congenital heart disease commonly encountered in adults. Resources include textbooks: Perloff’s Congenital Heart Disease in Adults and Perloff’s “The Clinical Recognition of Congenital Heart Disease”.
