I believe that many parents suddenly feel unusually heavy and overwhelmed after learning that their babies have precocious heart disease, but the baby is certainly the hope of a family, parents’ first choice must be to go to the hospital in a timely manner, but parents who are eager to save their children, do you actually understand precocious heart disease? How should you face this problem? Here I will give you a brief lecture on precordial disease and how you should face it. First of all, adjust the mentality, with the progress of medical technology, common precocious heart disease can be surgical or interventional treatment to obtain satisfactory results, so parents should face the disease with a scientific attitude, do not be overly pessimistic; second, reasonable feeding, if the baby does not discomfort performance, diet need not be strictly limited. If the baby has wheezing, edema, abdominal distension and other symptoms, should be under the guidance of pediatric cardiologist reasonable feeding; third, oxygen, for mild, non-cyanotic preconditioning baby generally do not need oxygen. For cyanotic preconditioned babies, they should be given intermittent low-flow oxygen (three times a day, one hour each time) to improve the hypoxic condition of the body; fourth, prevent respiratory infections, babies with arteriovenous ductus arteriosus, atrial and ventricular septal defects and other pulmonary hyperemia preconditioned babies should prevent lung infections, that is, “serious” “cold”. This type of baby, once the infection should be actively treated, do not blindly hope that the baby “produce resistance” to prevent the occurrence of heart failure, infective endocarditis, etc.; Finally, cyanotic precordial disease baby, to control the baby’s activity, this type of heart disease “exercise “bad, harmful but not beneficial, to rest more, drink an appropriate amount of water, avoid strenuous exercise and crying, to prevent related complications; combined with other diseases: such as liver and kidney function damage, acute infectious diseases, infectious rash, etc., should be cured to a pediatric specialist hospital before transferring to cardiac surgery for surgical treatment. After a general understanding of how to do, now look at what is congenital heart disease, how to get congenital heart disease and how to deal with congenital heart disease: 1, what is congenital heart disease (congenital heart disease)? Congenital heart disease (congenital heart disease) is a local anatomical abnormality caused by a disorder in the formation of the heart and large blood vessels during embryonic development (within the first 2-3 months of pregnancy). Congenital heart disease accounts for 28% of all congenital birth defect diseases and is the most common congenital malformation. 2.What types of congenital heart disease are there? According to statistics, about six to eight out of every thousand babies born in China suffer from congenital heart disease. Common congenital heart diseases include ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, pulmonary artery stenosis, tetralogy of Fallot, etc. 3.What are the causes of congenital heart disease? Precardiac disease is the result of the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. (1) Environmental factors: viral or bacterial infections in the first trimester of pregnancy, especially rubella virus. (1) Environmental factors: viral or bacterial infections in the first trimester, especially rubella virus, maternal malnutrition, diabetes mellitus, use of radiation and cytotoxic drugs in the early stages of pregnancy, and the age of the mother. (2) Genetic factors: Precocious heart disease has a tendency to develop in families to some extent. Genetic studies have concluded that most precocious heart disease is formed by the interaction of multiple genes and environmental factors. (3) other: some precardiac disease in the highland area more, some precardiac disease has a significant difference in the incidence of male and female sex, indicating that the altitude of the birthplace and gender is also related to the occurrence of the disease. 4.What are the typical symptoms of precardiac disease? Precocious heart disease can produce different symptoms depending on its type. Neonatal precocious heart disease mainly manifests as cyanosis and heart failure; infants as easy to catch cold, recurrent pneumonia, heart failure and hypoxic attacks; young children as murmur, cyanosis, squatting and growth retardation. Children often have both of the above symptoms. 5.How to detect precordial disease? When a child is found to have bruised lips and fingernails or bruised after crying, the first thing to consider is the possibility of precardiac disease. Non-cyanotic precocious heart disease is often not easily recognized by parents in the early stage. If the child has poor growth and development within 1 year old, is thin, often has pneumonia, shortness of breath after feeding, bruising around the mouth and blossoming skin, the possibility of precocious heart disease should be noted. As babies with precardiac disease are prone to combined lung infections or other malformations, treatment involves multidisciplinary pediatric expertise, so it is recommended to visit a pediatric specialty hospital. 6.Does precocious heart disease heal on its own? The majority of precardiac diseases cannot heal on their own and require surgery or interventional treatment. A small number of children with ventricular septal defects, atrial septal defects and patent ductus arteriosus with a diameter of less than 5 mm have the possibility of healing on their own and can be observed and followed up. Ventricular septal defect or atrial septal defect with a diameter of less than 5 mm has no significant effect on the function and growth of the child’s heart and can be followed up regularly, but attention should be paid to the prevention of infection and infective endocarditis. There are also some small defects, such as ventricular defects in the subaortic trunk area, even if they are less than 5 mm, which can lead to aortic valve prolapse due to their proximity to the aortic valve, and should be treated by active surgery. 7.When is the best time to operate for precordial disease? The optimal best time for surgery depends on a variety of factors, including the complexity of the congenital malformation, the baby’s age and weight, general development and nutritional status, etc. Generally for simple congenital heart disease, 1 – 5 years old is recommended. If the baby is too young, low weight, poor systemic development and nutritional status, it will increase the risk of surgery; if the baby is too old, the heart will compensate for the increase in size, and some may even have increased pulmonary artery pressure, which will also increase the difficulty of surgery and longer recovery time after surgery. For combined pulmonary hypertension, congenital malformations that are serious and affect growth and development, malformations that threaten the life of the child, and complex malformations that require staged surgery, the earlier the surgery the better, regardless of age.
