Bastion Lighting Colours Blue, Pink and Yellow: Global Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) Awareness Day on April 19
Time and date:
CDH occurs when the diaphragm fails to fully form during pregnancy, allowing organs to migrate from the
abdominal cavity into the chest cavity and thereby inhibiting lung growth. CDH strikes 1 in every 2500 babies. The overall survival rate is 50% while the cause is unknown.
