<p>No decision has been made to close the Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) service at
the Royal Brompton and Harefield NHS Foundation Trust.</p><p> </p><p>The particular
circumstances at the Royal Brompton mean that NHS England’s CHD proposals would, if
implemented, have an impact on the Trust’s paediatric respiratory service. NHS England
has therefore formed a specialist panel to review the potential impact of the CHD
proposals on paediatric respiratory services at the Royal Brompton.</p><p> </p><p>If
a decision is taken to stop commissioning children’s CHD surgical services, NHS England
will work with the Trust to manage the impact on paediatric respiratory services.</p>
