This trial is building a large research database by collecting tissue samples (like blood) and detailed health information from adults with congenital heart disease—a condition where the heart doesn't develop normally before birth—as well as people with related heart and lung conditions. Researchers will use this information and samples to better understand these diseases and develop new treatments.
Many questions remain about why congenital heart disease and related conditions develop and how to treat them best. By gathering samples and detailed health data from many patients over time, researchers hope to uncover new insights that could lead to better care.

If you join, you would donate a tissue sample (such as blood) during a clinic visit and answer detailed surveys about your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle. The research team will collect information from your medical records and may contact you at future clinic visits or via surveys to gather ongoing health updates. There is no specific medication being tested—this is purely an information and sample collection study.
