Characterization of digoxin therapeutic drug monitoring and incidence of toxicity in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease
Investigating Serum Monitoring in Children with Single Ventricle
Brief description of study.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the extent of digoxin serum concentration monitoring currently being performed in children born with only one heart ventricle in order to quantify the incidence of supratherapeutic concentrations discovered.
Detailed description of study

Eligibility of study
You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:
- Conditions: congenital heart disease
-
Age: 100 years or below
-
Gender: All
This study investigates how often digoxin serum concentration is monitored in children who are born with only one heart ventricle. Digoxin is a medication used to help the heart work better, and it's important to check its levels in the blood to ensure safety.
The study aims to find out how many children have high levels of digoxin in their blood. This involves checking the blood concentration of digoxin to see if it is too high, which can be harmful.
- Who can participate: Children born with only one heart ventricle who are receiving digoxin treatment may be eligible to participate.
- Study details: Participants will have their blood tested to measure digoxin levels. This will assist in determining if the levels are too high, which could be dangerous.
