Paediatric Cardiology

Paediatric cardiologists specialise in diagnosing and treating heart problems in children. Contrary to popular belief, children can also be diagnosed with heart conditions due to a variety of factors such as structural differences by birth or viral infections that affect the heart. Some examples of heart conditions among children are hole-in-the-heart (atrial septal defect), rheumatic heart disease or other congenital heart disease. Paediatric cardiologists commonly work with patients before birth, through childhood and into adulthood depending on each patient’s individual conditions.
