Pediatric Cardiology
Pediatric cardiology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of heart conditions in children. It involves a comprehensive understanding of both pediatric medicine and cardiology, tailored to the unique needs of young patients.
Common Conditions Treated by Pediatric Cardiologists
Congenital heart defects
These are heart problems present at birth. They can range from mild to severe and may require surgical intervention.
Rhythm disorders
Irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias) can occur in children and may require treatment to prevent serious complications.
Heart muscle diseases
Conditions affecting the heart muscle, such as cardiomyopathy or myocarditis, can also affect children.
Infectious heart diseases
Infections like endocarditis can damage the heart valves or heart muscle in children.
High blood pressure
While less common in children, high blood pressure can still have significant health consequences.
