What are the treatment options for newborn heart problems?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I am sorry to hear about your child's heart condition. Congenital heart disease is relatively common in children. To assess the severity, could you provide more details about the exact condition the doctor has diagnosed? That way, I can guide you on the best possible management.

Take care.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have reviewed the attached report (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Your child has a ventricular septal defect of small to medium size, which is a hole in the lower part of the heart. I typically do not prescribe any medications to children at an early age. Surgery may be considered later in life if symptoms develop. There is no need to worry.

I hope this helps.

Please feel free to reach out in case of further queries.

Thank you.
