Paediatric Cardiac Sciences

Overview

There are many conditions that affect the functioning of your child’s heart. Most of them can exist from birth (congenital disorders). Moreover, defects can be fatal if untreated in the first few days of life. If diagnosed precisely at the earliest, there is every chance for child to lead a normal and unrestricted life. A paediatric cardiologist is specialised in the diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases and disorders in children.

Our nurses and support staff are provided specialised training for the care of your child. We treat entire spectrum of congenital heart diseases and heart illnesses in children at our department, including congenital heart diseases, arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms), and pulmonary conditions that also involve the lungs. The team has well established and renowned doctors, surgeons, cardiologists, intensivists, and anesthesiologists for delivering exceptional outcomes in the perioperative period for all neonatal heart reconstructions to surgery for grown-up congenital heart diseases.
