What is Pediatric Cardiology?

Pediatric cardiology is the part of medical science that revolves around the diagnosis, mitigation of symptoms and treatment of heart conditions that a child may develop during his or her growing years.

Pediatric cardiologists are specialized doctors who have the know-how to treat cardiac diseases such as arrhythmia, congenital heart disease, and issues with the circulatory system of a child.

Our team at Pediatric Cardiology Specialists undergo special training that allows them to treat not only children of all ages, but also the unborn infants who have been diagnosed with congenital heart disease. A pediatric cardiologist can also arrange for all the necessary care a premature baby with heart issues or issues with its circulatory system would need to survive.

What conditions does Pediatric Cardiology treat?

Our team at Pediatric Cardiology Specialists diagnose, treat, and mitigate symptoms of the following types of heart disease in children –

  • Cardiovascular collapse – a condition that is the result of weak heart muscles in infants during their time in their mother’s womb. If the mother was unable to get the required nutrients daily during her pregnancy then chances are high that the child might develop the aforementioned medical condition.
  • Cardiac failure
  • Cyanosis – a rare condition where the skin of the infant turns blue which is an indication that the little one has issues with his or her lungs as well as the circulatory system.
  • Heart murmurs
  • Chest pain
  • Palpitations or frequent bouts of fainting
  • Congenital heart disease
  • Cardiovascular abnormalities that plague children who are in neonatal intensive care units.
  • Fetal cardiac abnormalities
  • Children who need immediate heart transplants
  • Assessing a child before the same is prepared for cardiac surgery
  • Caring for children who are terminally ill due to cardiac problems.
