Pediatric Cardiology & Cardiac Surgery
Pediatric Cardiology encompasses the identification and management of cardiac conditions in infants and young children. Children afflicted with cardiac diseases may exhibit symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, quickened breathing, leg swelling, abdominal bloating, shortness of breath, or cyanosis. Failing to identify and address these issues in a timely manner can potentially lead to a cardiac arrest.
The most prevalent heart problems encountered in children include Rheumatic Heart Disease, Kawasaki Disease, Arrhythmias, Atrial & Ventricular Septal defects, Pulmonary Atresia, and Ebstein's abnormality. Congenital heart issues are typically treated through advanced cardiological methods such as catheterization, interventional cardiology, pulmonary valve perforation, stenting of Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA), and balloon dilation of obstructed valves.
Babylon Children's Heart Institute boasts an Advanced Congenital Cardiovascular Care Unit, along with dedicated Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care Units, offering continuous attention to both in-patients and out-patients. We provide round-the-clock comprehensive care for congenital and critical heart ailments in infants and young children. Our exceptionally experienced team of cardiac specialists excels in performing treatments like Neonatal Valvotomy, stenting of ducts, closure of abnormal vessels (such as Coronary AV Fistula and Collaterals), as well as hybrid procedures like Per-Ventricular Device Closure and Fetal Cardiac Interventions. Over the past two years, we have successfully conducted more than 750 cardiac surgeries and over 700 cardiac catheterization procedures, serving as a hope for countless little hearts silently suffering.
