Who's in CHARGE? Multidisciplinary management of patients with CHARGE association.
Archives of Disease in Childhood 1990 Februrary
Clinical experience of 50 patients with the CHARGE association is reviewed and problems with management of children born with multiple system involvement is highlighted.

Mortality was largely due not to the structural heart defects or choanal abnormalities, but reflected underlying pharyngeal and laryngeal incoordination, which resulted in aspiration of secretions. Outcome is likely to be improved if collaboration between specialist surgical teams allows necessary procedures to be performed using the minimum number of anaesthetics. Examination of both the short and long term management of these children has stressed the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to their care.
