FAQ’S
Who is a congenital cardiologist?
Patients with congenital heart disease have a very fragile heart that requires advanced surgery. A congenital cardiologist is a physician who has immense knowledge about the disease and the most effective treatments for its cure.
Can congenital heart defects be cured?
Congenital heart disease can be treated successfully if detected at an early stage. Some heart defects, on the other hand, may not be severe enough to be repaired during infancy, but they may cause complications later in life. Adults with congenital heart disease are treated differently depending on the severity of their condition. The patient might either need to be carefully monitored, or might need treatment or surgery.
Is congenital heart defect a disability?
Symptomatic Congenital Heart Disease can qualify an individual for Social Security Disability benefits, according to the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) guidelines.
Is congenital heart defect a heart disease?
The term “congenital” refers to something that is present at birth. While the terms “congenital heart defect” and “congenital heart disease” are often similar, yet the word”defect” describes the condition more precisely. This is a deficiency or abnormality in the heart, not a disease. When the heart or blood vessels near the heart do not grow normally before birth, it is called a congenital heart defect (CHD).
How common are congenital heart defects?
Congenital heart defects are the most common form of birth defect affecting nearly 1% of all births. These are present at birth and affect the structure and function of a baby’s heart. A vital congenital heart defect affects about one out of every four babies born with a heart defect.
