Congenital Heart Disease
Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) refers to a group of structural abnormalities in the heart that are present from birth. These conditions can vary widely, from simple defects that may go unnoticed for years to more complex issues that require immediate medical attention after birth. CHD affects how blood flows through the heart, potentially impacting oxygen supply to the rest of the body.
Common types of CHD include atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, and more severe conditions like Tetralogy of Fallot. Thanks to advancements in medical technology and early diagnosis, many people with CHD can lead fulfilling lives with proper care and treatment.
At AORTA, we strive to provide clear and compassionate information about CHD to help individuals and families navigate this journey. From understanding the causes and types to exploring treatment options and prevention strategies, our goal is to empower you with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about heart health.
