Other congenital malformations of cardiac septa - what does this mean
Other congenital malformations of cardiac septa are caused by abnormal development of the septa of the heart during fetal development, resulting in defects such as atrial or ventricular septal defects, double-outlet right ventricle, and transposition of the great arteries. these congenital defects can lead to serious complications, such as heart failure, stroke, and arrhythmias.
What happens during the disease - other congenital malformations of cardiac septa
Other congenital malformations of cardiac septa is a condition in which the walls that separate the four chambers of the heart (septum) are not properly formed, leading to the mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. this condition is caused by abnormal development of the heart during fetal development, and can result in a range of cardiac abnormalities, such as ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, and double-outlet right ventricle.

How does a doctor diagnose
- Physical Examination
- Echocardiogram
- Electrocardiogram
- Cardiac Catheterization
- Chest X-Ray
- MRI
- CT Scan
Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal of the treatment: To repair or replace the septal defect and restore normal blood flow through the heart.
- Perform a physical examination to assess the size of the defect.
- Conduct imaging tests such as echocardiogram, MRI, and CT scans to get a better view of the defect.
- Prescribe medications to reduce the workload of the heart.
- Perform a minimally invasive procedure to close the defect.
- Perform open-heart surgery to repair or replace the septal defect.
- Perform a cardiac catheterization to evaluate the heart's function.
- Prescribe lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise.
12 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Other congenital malformations of cardiac septa - Prevention
The best way to prevent other congenital malformations of cardiac septa is to ensure that pregnant women receive proper pre-natal care, including regular ultrasounds and other tests to detect any potential abnormalities. early detection and treatment of these malformations can greatly reduce the risk of serious health complications for both mother and baby.
