Pediatric Cardiology & Cardiac Surgery
Pediatric Cardiology is associated with the identification and management of cardiac ailments in infants and younger children. A child with a cardiac disease can experience symptoms like rapid heart, rapid breathing, swelling in legs or bloated stomach, shortness of breath, cyanosis, which, if not identified and treated on time can progress to cardiac arrest.
Rheumatic Heart Disease, Kawasaki Disease, Arrhythmias, Atrial & Ventricular Septal defects, Pulmonary Atresia, and Ebstein's abnormality are the most common heart problems observed in children. Congenital heart problems are generally treated with advanced cardiology treatments like catheterization, interventional cardiology, pulmonary valve perforation, stenting of PDA and balloon dilation of blocked valves.
