💚 Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Awareness Day – 15th July (Global)
Shining a Light on a Rare and Serious Birth Condition
On 15th July, the global community observes Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Awareness Day, dedicated to raising awareness about this rare and serious birth defect. Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) occurs when a baby's diaphragm fails to form properly during pregnancy, allowing abdominal organs to move into the chest cavity and restricting lung development.
This day honors the brave children who face this condition, their families, and the medical professionals who care for them. It aims to educate the public, promote research, and advocate for better care and treatment options for infants diagnosed with CDH.
