What exactly does this do to different parts of this body system (Cardiovascular System)?
Congenital, present at birth, heart diseases affect the child’s heart and its structure.
Cardiovascular defects consist of obstructed blood flow, holes in the heart, heart valve
defects. Complications of the cardiovascular system include slower growth and development,
congestive heart failure, heart rhythm problems, cyanosis, emotional issues, stroke, and a need
When the heart is beating too fast, too slowly, or irregularly, also known as arrhythmias,
or abnormal heart rhythms are labled as heart rhythm problems. Artial fibrillation is found as a
common type of serious arrhythmia, in which the two upper chambers of the heart (atria) beat
irregularly and fast, although, most are harmless. Arrhythmias can cause, shortness of breath,
dizziness, and fatigue, also increasing the risk of suffering a stroke. Some arrhythmias could be
treated with drugs and some need defibrillation to reset and normalize electrical activity.
Although researchers aren't sure what exactly causes most of these defects. To their
conclusions, genetics, certain medical conditions, some medications and environmental factors,
The exact causes of congenital heart defects are unknown, so it may not be possible to
prevent these conditions. There are things that may lessen the overall risk of your child having
these issues and possibly heart defects: keep up with flu and rubella vaccinations, avoid alcohol
and medication during pregnancy, intake 400 micrograms of folic acid supplement during the
first trimester of pregnancy, try natural remedies and over the counter medications if needed,
avoid those who are known to have infection, keep diabetes under control if diagnosed with it,
Treatments of the congenital heart include procedures using catheterization, open heart
surgery, heart transplant, and medications. Some long-term treatments are lifelong monitoring
Congenital heart defects are the most widely recognized sort of birth imperfection. They
influence 8 out of each 1,000 infants. Every year, in excess of 35,000 children in the United
States are brought into the world with congenital heart defects. A large number of these
deformities are straightforward conditions. They require no treatment or are effectively settled. A
few infants are born with complex forms of congenital heart defects. These deformities require
- Serious heart defects can be diagnosed while the baby is still in the womb, if not,
some time after birth. A few imperfections aren't analyzed until some other time
following the issue after some time. This test determined issues to have how the
heart is framed and how well it's functioning. Different tests incorporate
- In the United States, more than one million grown-ups are living with congenital
heart defects.
