The Women's and Children's Hospital Affiliated to Ningbo University issued an information statement on December 20: The autopsy report showed that “the size of the atrial septal defect is 1.0 cm x 0.9 cm”, not 0.3 cm as stated by the patient. At the time of the autopsy, the child's heart stopped and was much smaller than when it was full of blood and beating during birth. An atrial septal defect of about 1 cm has a great impact on the growth and development of 5-month-old children.
