Fig. 1. Above (A, left), at 1 year, motor (PDI) and (B, right), cognitive (MDI) outcome were significantly impaired compared to the norm [PDI 57 (49–99), p <0.001; MDI 91 (65–109), p = 0.002]. Below (C, left), at 4 years of age, comparable results after Hybrid and Norwood procedure for cognitive outcome [median IQ: Norwood 92 (80–104) vs. Hybrid 88 (76–116), p = 1.0], (D, right) lower IQ in the early period compared to children treated in the late period independent of performed procedure [IQ early period 87 (76–101) vs. late period 96 (80–116), p = 0.03]. PDI: psychomotor development index; MDI: mental development index; IQ: intelligence quotient
