This is a pretty good article on HLHS, thanks. - invalidname

This page needs to be edited as it has been copied word for word from the American Heart Association's article on it here:

Baby Fae
Baby Fae had HLHS (her doctor died today which is how I ended up here). Worth mentioning in this article? I can't figure out a way to do it other than a See Also section. CSZero (talk) 22:11, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Good work Chris, a few suggestions you might consider as we complete our development of these articles:
 * When discussing the male predominance in epidemiology, consider rewording "thought to be" to "has been demonstrated/shown in population-based studies". This appears to be more definitive of the true distribution shown through clinical evaluation.
 * Rather than citing UptoDate, you may consider the article cited on the UptoDate page (PMID: 19909991). This is an open access article that the layperson could access without having to utilize an UptoDate login
 * Signs and Symptoms: when discussing early symptoms, I would rephrase "Early symptoms might include poor feeding or cyanosis that does not respond to oxygen administration". This is more of a syntax edit that clarifies that the cyanosis is independent of poor feeding.
 * Consider combining the last two sentences of "Pathogenesis > Altered Blood Flow" In some cases of aortic stenosis that occur in fetal development, there is added stress on the left ventricle in utero. This can eventually lead to decreased perfusion and stop the growth of the left ventricle.[14].
 * I did not see any inclusion of the future of stem cell therapies that you mentioned in your plan to edit
 * When introducing the motor delay in the prognosis section, there is a typo in the word "Additionally".
 * Other developmental delays are introduced in the first paragraph in "Prognosis", you may further develop these if you can find adequate resources to build on those complications.

Happy to offer further assistance as we continue to build these topics. Kjlockart (talk) 23:16, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
