While the CDH Survival Calculator has been tested extensively, we are interested in any user observations of unreasonable estimates. Please let us know using our inquiry form.

Disclaimer: All calculations must be confirmed before use. This prognostic model was developed based on the isolated, left-sided CDH infants treated at high-volume facilities in Japan. The suggested results do not substitute for clinical judgment. Factors other than explanatory of our model variables also influence prognosis. Parents require detailed consultation with physicians or other health care professionals before deciding on a treatment plan. We shall not be liable for any special, consequential, or exemplary damages resulting, in whole or part, from the use of, or reliance upon, this website. Calculations are completed within the web browser, and we do not collect any data.
