Study Summary
Babies can be born with heart problems and sometimes need a heart surgery to fix the heart problem. Heart surgery can cause swelling from the build-up of extra fluid. Swelling can make it harder for babies to breath and has to be treated with medicine called diuretics. Swelling is hard to measure in babies, so it can be hard to know how much diuretic they need to treat the swelling. The investigators are looking for a better way to measure swelling in babies who have had heart surgery. Ultrasound uses sound waves to take pictures of the inside of the body. Ultrasound is used to take pictures of babies before they are born and to take pictures of their heart after they are born. New ultrasound software has been made from a company called MuscleSound that can quickly measure the amount of swelling in adults, usually in less than 2 minutes. This software has not yet been used to measure swelling in kids. This study plans to learn more about swelling in babies and will try to measure swelling in babies before and after heart surgery with the new ultrasound software. The study will also make the same measurements in babies who do not have heart disease to compare to babies having heart surgery.
