title: BERTE--a database for children with congenital heart defects.
abstract: To secure the follow-up of children with congenital heart defects in Norway the Dept. of Pediatric Cardiology has developed a tailor-made database. This also simplifies the regular flow of information about these patients both inside the hospital and between the hospital and the others who are in charge of the patient care on various levels.
