Present at birth, congenital heart diseases (birth)
Development of structural defects of the heart occurring before birth is known as congenital heart disorders (CHDs). These flaws can compromise the walls, valves, or blood arteries of the heart, therefore altering blood flow. Heart defects range from mild issues like atrial or ventricular septal defects (small holes in the heart) to serious conditions like hypoplastic left heart syndrome (parts of the heart are not fully developed).
Although the precise causes of CHDs are yet unknown, genetic elements, maternal illnesses, diabetes, or prenatal drug abuse could all have a role. The degree of the abnormality will affect the symptoms; they could be quick breathing, bluish skin (cyanosis), tiredness, and poor weight gain in young children. Some moderate conditions could go unseen until much later in life.
Prenatal ultrasounds, echocardiograms, or cardiac MRIs usually help diagnose problems. Depending on the degree of the abnormality, treatment choices consist of medicines, catheter-based procedures, or open-heart surgery. Severe conditions could call for a heart transplant.
Many people with CHDs today have healthy lives with appropriate therapy and surveillance thanks to developments in medical treatment. Improving outcomes and raising the quality of life for affected people depend much on early diagnosis and quick intervention.
