Summary

Contemporary management of cyanotic congenital heart disease includes three stages of surgery. Incidence of shunt thrombosis and death between the two first stages of palliation remains important. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Clopidogrel 0.2 mg/kg/day for the reduction of all cause mortality and shunt related morbidity in neonates or infants with cyanotic congenital heart disease palliated with a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt (e.g. modified Blalock Taussig Shunt [BTS]). The secondary objective was to assess the safety of Clopidogrel in the study population.
