1. Cyanosis: Bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes due to decreased oxygen levels in the blood.
2. Tachypnea: Rapid breathing, often as a compensatory mechanism for decreased oxygen levels.
3. Poor feeding: Difficulty in feeding or poor weight gain due to increased energy expenditure from heart defects.
4. Failure to thrive: Inadequate growth and development compared to peers.
5. Clubbing of fingers and toes: Enlargement and rounding of the fingertips and toes due to chronic hypoxia.
6. Murmurs: Abnormal heart sounds heard on auscultation due to turbulent blood flow through the heart.
7. Arrhythmias: Abnormal heart rhythms that can present as palpitations, dizziness, or syncope.
8. Developmental delays: Delayed milestones in motor, cognitive, or language development due to decreased oxygen delivery to the brain.

1. Cyanosis: A bluish discoloration of the skin, lips, and nail beds due to insufficient oxygenation of the blood.
2. Dyspnea: Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, especially during exertion.
3. Tachycardia: Rapid heart rate.
4. Tachypnea: Rapid respiratory rate.
5. Heart murmur: An abnormal sound heard through a stethoscope when blood flows through a narrowed or leaky heart valve.
6. Enlarged heart: A palpable or visible swelling in the chest area due to increased heart size.
7. Clubbing: Enlarged and rounded fingertips or toenails due to prolonged decreased oxygenation.
8. Developmental delay: Growth and developmental delays due to reduced oxygen and nutrient delivery to the body.
