Paediatric cardiology is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on treating congenital and acquired heart diseases in infants, children, and adolescents. Since the structure and rhythm of a child’s heart differ from that of an adult, young patients are treated by paediatric cardiologists who are well-versed in general paediatrics and specialize in diagnosing and managing heart conditions in children.
Medcy is committed to providing exceptional medical care, which extends to our paediatric cardiology department. Our team of expert paediatric cardiologists employs a collaborative approach in developing customised treatment plans for children, delivering precise care using advanced equipment and facilities. We create a child-friendly, comforting environment for each patient, ensuring they are relaxed, happy, and supported throughout their healthcare journey.
Heart diseases are rare in children and vary greatly from those that affect adults. Children can experience various cardiac ailments, ranging from minor conditions that can be treated with medication to more serious ones that may require surgical intervention.
Congenital heart defects are some of the most common cardiac ailments among children. They are heart abnormalities present at birth, affecting the heart’s structure, veins, arteries, and valves. An echocardiogram allows cardiologists to identify critical congenital heart defects among babies still in the womb. Other congenital heart diseases are diagnosed after birth. Critical congenital disabilities require surgery to treat the condition.
Other congenital cardiac diseases do not require immediate treatment and can resolve with time. For example, minor atrial septal defects can close on their own. Such defects are not critical and only need surgery if they are advanced in stage, interfering with daily life or larger in size.
Arrhythmias are irregular heart rhythms that may be present from birth or acquired later. It is a disorder that makes the heart beat too slow, too fast or irregularly. Some arrhythmias, like premature contractions, are harmless. However, other forms of arrhythmias can be severe and require surgical interventions, including a pacemaker implant or medication.
Certain cardiac conditions may develop later in children. For example, Kawasaki Disease – a rare condition primarily affecting children – causes inflammation in the blood vessels, including the heart. These disorders require the expertise of a paediatric cardiologist to be treated in time and restore normalcy in life.
At Medcy, we understand every child is unique, and so their treatment is tailored to their condition. We strive to create a friendly and inviting atmosphere that will put both you and your child at ease. We also employ a family-centred approach to ensure you understand your child’s condition and the treatment plan that is followed for them.
Paediatric cardiologists perform thorough evaluations, which may include non-invasive tests like echocardiograms and electrocardiograms (ECGs) to assess your child’s heart health and advanced diagnostic procedures to understand the patient’s condition comprehensively.
Paediatric cardiologists collaborate with paediatricians, neonatologists, cardiac surgeons, and other specialists to create a well-rounded treatment plan for your child.
We are committed to being there for your child every step of the way. From the initial evaluation to ongoing follow-up appointments, our team will monitor the patient’s progress, adjusting the treatment plan and ensuring the child returns with a stronger heart to a healthier life.
We combine expertise, compassion, and experience to create a medical journey that guarantees the best outcome for your little one.
