Pediatric cardiology and cardiac surgery:
During the early stages of formation of heart in children, the natural process may get disturbed in some children due to various factors that may be genetic or environmental. Sadly, we do not have much control over these factors. These factors can interact to alter the development of the heart during the early stages of growth and hence may cause a defect in the heart of the child. This type of heart defect that is present since the time of birth is known as Congenital Heart Defect (CHD). Many of such defects may either obstruct blood flow in the heart or may cause blood to flow in an abnormal pattern through the heart. Congenital heart defects are among the most common birth defects. Not all congenital heart defects may need treatment but there are some serious congenital heart defects that may require treatment like medication or surgery. Our network heart hospitals for children in India have the most sophisticated technology available, including specially designed and dedicated inpatient wards, operation theatres, examination rooms, and post-operative intensive care units (ICU). The operation theatres and the intensive care units are equipped with high-end support devices with a necessary infrastructural backup that is required to give your child the best care. Our pool of pediatric heart hospitals in India has some of the best pediatric cardiac surgeons and pediatric cardiologists who use a multi-disciplinary team-based approach in the treatment of various complex heart diseases in infants and children.
