The document summarizes the 2020 ESC Guidelines for the management of adult congenital heart disease (ACHD). Key points include:
- New recommendations were added for arrhythmia management emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach.
- Recommendations for Eisenmenger syndrome/pulmonary arterial hypertension include counseling patients against pregnancy and risk assessment for all patients.
- Adjusted recommendations for shunt closure depend on calculated pulmonary vascular resistance and include the option of fenestrated closure.
- Changes to recommendations for left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and aortopathies include lowering the mean gradient threshold for intervention and including BNP levels and pulmonary arterial pressure in indications for intervention.

Risk estimates for arrhythmic events and bradycardias in ACHD (1)
aConsidering the high
prevalence of VSD,
the overall risk in
unselected patients
with VSD is
considered to be
minimal.
bSCD may be due to
supraventricular
arrhythmias with
rapid AV conduction.
cVT higher estimated
risk in complex
dextro-TGA.
