What is the congenital heart defect life expectancy?
It really depends on what congenital heart defect you are talking about. Your question is tagged in the Spina Bifida category, and as far as I know there is no particular heart defect more common in people with spina bifida than in the general population. The severity and life expectancy of heart defects can range from death immediately upon birth, to totally asymptomatic with a normal life expectancy, so if you want a better explanation, try asking again but please be sure to include the specific type of defect, since there are many.
Can heart defects kill?
Yes, heart defects can kill. A heart defect is a structural abnormality in the heart. It makes the heart inefficient. The heart has to work harder to sustain life. The heart wears out or enlarges from being overworked. It might not be enough to oxygenate the body to sustain life. Most babies are born with an Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA). This is an extra pathway in the heart for the fetus. Around 10 days, this PDA closes. Without this extra pathway, some defective hearts are unable to sustain life. Surgery or medicines are required to save the life. Alternately, some heart defects are benign. A Still's Murmer is a heart murmer that can only be detected when the patient is horizontal. It has no known ill effects.
What is a vsd saddle?
A VSD saddle, or Ventricular Septal Defect saddle, is a medical device used to repair a congenital heart defect known as a ventricular septal defect (VSD), which is an abnormal opening in the heart's septum that separates the left and right ventricles. The saddle-shaped device is designed to occlude the defect, allowing the heart to function more effectively by preventing the mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. It is typically used in minimally invasive procedures and can improve the patient's quality of life by reducing symptoms associated with the defect.

Is there a bright future for children with heart defects?
Yes, of course there is a bright future for children with heart defects. The future is whatever you make of it, so someone with a heart defect can still have a happy life, with a wonderful future, healthy relationships, and a good career. It's what that person makes of his opportunities in life.
What affect does a congenital heart defect have on life insurance premiums?
None. First of all, the client is given a medical exam, depending on the amount of insurance being bought. If the defect is found, the client (assuming he is 18 and over) is not insurable and in all probabilities, will not be insured by the company. However, second, if the client passes the exam and does not know of the defect, there is no record of the defect, and the client was absolutely honest, and the medical examiners don't detect a problem, the client is insured. The premiums are what the premiums should be. Third, if the defect is found to exist AFTER the first premium, there is no reason for the company to change the life insurance premiums. It was their responsibility to detect the defect, and who's to say that the defect didn't, in fact, occur AFTER the policy was delivered?

Defect life cycle?
Once a bug / defect is found in a software application, it undergoes various stages which forms a defect life cycle. The stages can be as listed below. 1) Open (Once the defect is found) 2) Fixed (Once the developer provides a fix for the defect) 3) Closed (Once the tester confirms after verification that the issue is resolved) 4) Reopen (If the issue is not resolved, the defect can be reopened) The above stages vary from organisation to organisation.

What is meant by 'No gross congenital abnormality seen at present'?
The medical term "gross" means course or large; large enough to be visible to the naked eye; macroscopic. A congenital anomaly may be viewed as a physical, metabolic, or anatomic deviation from the normal pattern of development that is apparent at birth or detected during the first year of life. Congenital anomalies affect 1 in 30 children and the leading cause of infant deaths according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Examples of gross congenital anomalies would be a heart defect, kidney malformation, or even an extremity malformation (visible birth defect).
