Stollery Cardiac Program Virtual Symposium: Fetal–Perinatal–Neonatal Cardiac Continuum 2021

Comprehensive Congenital Heart Disease Care from Fetal Diagnosis to Neonatal Management

The Stollery Cardiac Program Virtual Symposium: Fetal–Perinatal–Neonatal Cardiac Continuum 2021 is a specialized educational program dedicated to the multidisciplinary management of congenital and acquired cardiac conditions across the critical continuum of fetal, perinatal, and neonatal care.

Developed by the renowned Stollery Children’s Hospital Cardiac Program, this virtual symposium brings together experts in pediatric cardiology, fetal cardiology, neonatology, pediatric cardiac surgery, maternal-fetal medicine, intensive care, and cardiac imaging to discuss contemporary approaches to the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of complex congenital heart disease.

The program emphasizes collaborative care models and highlights advances in prenatal diagnosis, fetal echocardiography, perinatal planning, neonatal stabilization, surgical intervention, and postnatal cardiac management.

Program Overview

Congenital heart disease management increasingly requires coordinated care beginning before birth and extending through delivery, neonatal stabilization, surgical intervention, and long-term follow-up.

The Fetal–Perinatal–Neonatal Cardiac Continuum Symposium 2021 focuses on optimizing outcomes through early diagnosis, multidisciplinary planning, and evidence-based treatment strategies. The program reviews current approaches to fetal cardiac imaging, prenatal counseling, delivery planning, neonatal cardiovascular support, and surgical decision-making.

Participants gain practical insights into managing complex congenital heart disease while improving communication and coordination among the diverse specialists involved in pediatric cardiac care.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

• Recognize congenital cardiac abnormalities during fetal evaluation

• Interpret fetal echocardiography findings more effectively

• Develop comprehensive perinatal management plans

• Optimize neonatal stabilization strategies for congenital heart disease

• Apply multidisciplinary approaches to complex cardiac cases

• Understand current surgical treatment options for congenital heart defects

• Improve coordination between obstetric, neonatal, cardiology, and surgical teams

• Integrate evidence-based practices into congenital heart disease management

• Enhance patient outcomes through early diagnosis and intervention

• Strengthen continuity of care across fetal and neonatal cardiac services
