The APRICOTS Lab

Partnership4CHD Program

About our Program:

Our team includes specialists at UVM in Pediatric Cardiology, Dr. Flyer and Dr. Haxel, Pediatric Psychology, Dr. Hughes Lansing, and Pediatric Cardiology Nursing, who are working to build better support programs for families navigating a fetal congenital heart disease (CHD) diagnosis. Our first step in our program development is learning more from our families about their experiences. Read on below to learn about our current study and advisory committees as well as find resources for navigating a fetal CHD diagnosis and accessing support for perinatal mental health.
