How should congenital heart disease in children be treated best?

Congenital heart disease is a kind of congenital malformation, which is relatively common among congenital diseases. However, if people can discover this disease early and take reasonable treatment methods in time, timely treatment can still have a complete cure effect. However, if it is not treated in time, the child’s life may be threatened. So what is the best way to treat congenital heart disease in children?

If parents find that surgery is indicated based on examination results, they should take their baby for treatment as soon as possible to avoid missing the opportunity for surgery. If the heart has already had changes in heartbeat and heart function, surgery cannot be performed. You should go to the cardiac surgery department as soon as possible and let the doctor decide the timing of the operation. After the operation, there was no difference between him and other children of the same age.

Congenital heart disease can be treated surgically. There are roughly two methods of surgery: one is surgical treatment and the other is interventional treatment. However, surgery is currently the main treatment for congenital heart disease. The surgical treatment effect is quite good for relatively simple congenital heart disease. For example, surgical treatment of congenital heart disease such as atrial septal defect is very effective.

Interventional therapy for congenital heart disease has not been around for a long time and is an emerging method for treating congenital heart disease. This method has unique advantages for congenital heart diseases including patent ductus arteriosus, partial ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect. Some patients with congenital heart disease who require surgical correction can also use interventional therapy.

It is worth mentioning that although surgery is the main method for treating congenital heart disease, and the scope of surgery is relatively broad, it has a good effect on simple congenital heart disease. However, treating complex congenital heart disease may cause certain trauma to the patient, and after the operation, the patient's physical recovery requires a long period of time.

When you have a heart disease, it is best to eat more light foods. During this period, you can choose to let your child eat more low-salt foods. If the child is still young and cannot undergo surgery, you must pay more attention to the child's care. If the child shows any abnormalities or physical discomfort, you need to take the child to the hospital for examination and treatment immediately.
