Abstract :

 The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic value of microalbumuria in congenital heart disease. The exact cut–off level for the definition of microalbuminuria with regard to the risk of developing cardiovascular disease is still debated, but a growing amount of evidence has shown that the risk increases at much lower levels of urine albumin excretion. Most likely, the risk attenuates gradually with a continuous rise in albumin excretion. Design/Methods: congenital heart disease patients were selected on the basis of microalbuminuria levels. In this study, we demonstrated that microalbuminuria levels very helpful monitoring for congenital heart disease patients. Results: The levels of microalbuminuria were found to be significantly increased when compared with control Conclusions: Microalbuminuria as a marker for congenital heart disease. Its serum concentrations in healthy individuals positively correlate with congenital heart disease.
