| Factor | prevalence of parent reported executive dysfunction |
| Description | There was a high prevalence of parent reported executive dysfunction in our sample, with 64.8% of parents reporting at least one elevation on the BRIEF, compared with 29.7% of controls (odds ratio=4.37; 95% CI: 2.35, 8.14, P<0.0001). |

| Conclusion | School aged children with CHD have an increased prevalence of executive dysfunction, especially problems with working memory and flexibility, and are underserved by the school system. The increased risk for executive dysfunction in those with CHD and prematurity or CHD with aortic obstruction suggests an etiology of delayed brain development in the fetal and neonatal periods, while male gender may increase susceptibility to brain injury. |
