What are the new technologies for the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart disease?

The latest advances in congenital heart disease include the following aspects: 1. Intrauterine surgery, which is to put the operation time on the premise, and the fetus is completed when the fetus is in the mother's womb; 2. On the progress of heart transplantation: there is still a certain gap between the work of the entire Chinese organ donation bank and that of Western countries.

Heart transplantation in children is currently in its infancy. 70%-80% of congenital heart disease can be surgically or otherwise**, after all, 10%-20% of patients cannot be surgically operated**. In cardiac surgery, there is a single ventricular pathway, after the operation, the child has only one ventricle and one atria, and a heart transplant is still required in the long term; 3. The development of modern biotechnology has revolutionized many alternative materials in the process of cardiac surgery.

For example, bovine pericardium is now used to repair heart defects, widen the outflow tract, or widen blood vessels. Through current biotechnology, all the antigenicity of the bovine pericardium has been removed, and allogeneic tissue can be used to replace the repair of the heart. In terms of long-term efficacy, it may take a little time for pig hearts to be transplanted into humans, but it is entirely possible.

Because pigs are currently the closest animal to the human body's tissues and organs, including various physiological characteristics. If all the antigenic rejection reactions of the pig's heart can be controlled very well, it will bring revolutionary changes to heart surgery. In addition to biomaterials, there are many alloys, metals, and other related polymers, such as magnesium alloy scaffolds that are being developed.

If magnesium alloy stents are placed in blood vessels with miraculous properties, it can be ablated in the end, and the stenosis problem can be solved for a period of time. After the problem of stenosis is solved, it will be absorbed by the body. If the titanium-nickel alloy bracket is placed, the stenosis is solved at present, but it will become a new stenosis factor in the future; 4. There is also good progress in stem cell transplantation of the heart.

If you are diagnosed with congenital heart disease, depending on which type it is, there are several types of congenital heart disease that can be minimally invasive**. For example, interventional **, which is a non-incisive operation, is to make an injection from the groin, a very small needle, and then through the guide wire, along the blood vessels to the heart, and then go to the place to carry out some heart disease repair surgery. For example, if there is an atrial defect and a patent ductus arteriosus, these can be done through this, and then if your congenital heart disease is more complicated, you may need to do a conventional surgery such as a median thoracotomy.

And if you are older, you can also do us do thoracoscopic surgery, which depends on your age, according to your weight, according to your condition, there are these three ways to choose.

Diagnosis of congenital heart disease: atrial septal defect, interventional closure surgery should be possible, under local anesthesia, the risk of trauma is small, it is recommended to go to the cardiac surgery department of the local hospital for examination, and formulate a specific plan, I hope it can help you.

The general ** of congenital heart disease is mainly surgery, and now our country, including the world, basically has some such as insufficiency or mild stenosis, which can be done through minimally invasive surgery. Of course, some big ones, such as the tetralogy of Fallot, etc., need to have open heart surgery, which is more complicated. There are only some well-known hospitals in our country that can do it.

Heart disease doesn't seem to be easy to treat, but it is common to prevent the onset and maintenance of the disease.

I believe that everyone will be frightened when they hear about heart disease, it is true that heart disease is difficult to treat, and it is even more difficult for children with congenital heart diseaseSo let's talk about this frightening pediatric congenital heart disease and how to treat this disease, in fact, most heart diseases can still be cured well.

We all know that our normal heart is divided into four chambers, namely the left and right atrium, the left and right ventricles, the two atria are not connected to each other, and the two ventricles are also not connected to each other, if the two atria are connected, we call it atrial septal defect. Pediatric congenital heart disease is a common disease that seriously endangers children's physical and mental health. Early detection, early diagnosis, and early diagnosis are the keys to saving the lives of these children.

In fact, congenital heart disease is a heart disease that occurs after birth, and then congenital heart disease develops abnormally in the mother's belly, that is, some channels that should have been closed are not closed, the atria and ventricles are not separated, and the abnormal heart structure caused by abnormal development in the mother's stomach still exists after birth is called congenital heart disease. The exact cause of congenital heart malformations is unknown, but they can be broadly grouped into two broad categories, environmental factors and genetic factors.

When we go to the hospital, we are generally advised to do the traditional way of congenital heart disease is thoracotomy, the risk of thoracotomy is relatively large, the ribs have to be broken, a big scar is left after surgery, and then a large amount of blood transfusion is required, blood transfusion is also easy to bring some viral infections, and some can also cause blood clots. Therefore, this method is still very risky, and some children can't get off the operating tableWith the development of medical technology, most congenital heart diseases can be carried out by minimally invasive methods, that is, interventional methods, and the interventional hospital stay is short, generally four or five days, and some can even be discharged after two or three days. This method is relatively risky, and many recoveries are fast, so it's still worth a try.

Finally, I hope that babies with congenital heart disease can get a good ** and be cured.

Congenital heart disease, because of his extensive clinical manifestations, some people have no clinical manifestations, and there are more serious clinical manifestations, even life-threatening, so for congenital heart disease without clinical manifestations, we can observe, but for some patients who have obvious clinical manifestations, such as dyspnea, such as paradoxical embolism, etc., such some patients, we should consider active **, then**including, minimally invasive interventional blocking**, which is also the most mainstream ** method at present, in addition, For some patients with complex congenital heart disease or who cannot use intervention**, we can use surgery to deal with it.

There are many types of congenital heart disease, such as surgery, intervention, and drugs. The choice of the best method and the timing of surgery depends mainly on the extent and extent of the congenital heart malformation. Simple and minor malformations such as atrial septal defects, simple pulmonary stenosis, and small defect diameters have no significant effect on hemodynamics and can be life-long without any **.

Severe congenital heart disease, such as complete transposition of the great arteries or hypoplastic left heart syndrome, must be operated on immediately after birth or the child will not survive.

Congenital heart disease, commonly seen in pulmonary artery stenosis, coarctation of the aorta, left-to-right shunts such as atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, and right-to-left shunts such as tetralogy of Fallot, large vessel dislocation, etc. It is recommended to go to the cardiology department of a tertiary hospital for further examination, cardiac color ultrasound, ambulatory electrocardiogram, and cardiac enzyme examination, and a clear diagnosis can be accurate**.

Congenital heart disease is a malformation of the heart and blood vessels in the early stages of pregnancy! Some are genetic.

As for **, it depends on what type of heart disease it is.

This is usually done through surgery.

Problem Analysis: Hello. According to the results of the echocardiology you provided, the patient has congenital heart disease, atrial septal defect, tricuspid regurgitation (severe), mitral regurgitation (mild to moderate), pulmonary stenosis (mild), although there are many diagnoses, but the last two lesions are relatively mild and may not need to be corrected; The key lies in the first two lesions.

Among them, the caliber of the room shortage is medium to large. If it is just a simple atrial defect, you can consider blocking it through interventional means, the advantage is that thoracotomy is avoided, the pain is small, and the recovery is fast; However, due to the fact that the patient has tricuspid regurgitation at the same time, which cannot be solved by intervention, thoracotomy is still the most ideal method. In addition, from the ultrasound description, it cannot be ruled out that the patient has a partial atrioventricular septal defect, which is a slightly more complex congenital heart disease that can also manifest as atrial defect.

For 2. Tricuspid regurgitation, surgery is the only effective means. The above analysis may be a bit complicated for you, to put it simply, thoracotomy may be the most ideal way, this kind of surgery has been very mature, in my case, the success rate of the operation is about 98% 99%, and the total hospitalization cost is about 40,000 yuan. Now congenital heart disease has caused a more obvious impact on patients, the most direct manifestation is that the heart has been significantly enlarged, and if it is delayed, the heart function will only deteriorate day by day, and arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation may occur, so it is not possible to do without surgery.

Patients are advised to seek surgery as early as possible**.

Hello, the above situation is necessary to go to the hospital for cardiac ultrasound examination, if there is congenital heart disease and symptoms can be operated**.

Hello: Congenital heart disease has a certain degree of familial tendency, which may be caused by parental germ cells and chromosomal aberrations. Genetic studies suggest that most congenital heart diseases are caused by the interaction of multiple genes with environmental factors.

Hello, according to the cardiac ultrasound you provided, this is caused by a slight increase in pulmonary artery pressure caused by valvular regurgitation, as long as the child's cardiac ejection fraction is normal, daily activities are not affected, but can not do strenuous physical exercise, can not be too weight-bearing, pay attention to rest, school running try not to participate.

First of all, go to a regular hospital for an examination to determine what type of heart disease it is, and then formulate a ** method according to the results of the examination.

How old is the patient? According to the color ultrasound patient, it is congenital heart disease and ventricular septal defect! Surgery is recommended**!

Analysis:

Hello, there are many types of congenital heart disease, and it must be determined according to which disease is specific and the severity of the condition.

Guidance: At present, common congenital heart diseases such as ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, tetralogy of Fallot, etc., these congenital heart diseases are generally surgery**.

There are two methods for congenital heart disease: 1. Direct thoracotomy with surgical thoracotomy and open-heart repair under cardiopulmonary bypass. It is characterized by large trauma, general anesthesia, cardiopulmonary bypass, long hospital stay, and permanent scars on the chest after surgery, which permanently damage the child's physical, mental and personality and is not conducive to the overall healthy growth of the child. 2 Cardiac catheterization for congenital heart disease**It is a sub-discipline developed on the basis of cardiac intervention in the past 15 years.

By puncturing the femoral artery or femoral vein, a special catheter is inserted, and the special occluder is sent from the peripheral blood vessels to the desired lesion site, and the occluder is released and fixed at the lesion site to achieve the purpose of **. The emergence of interventional surgery has fundamentally changed the concept of congenital heart disease, which has now become the majority.

Congenital heart disease.

The preferred method. It has obvious advantages: it does not require a chest opening, does not leave knife marks without affecting aesthetics; Few complications and high safety; The hospital stay is short, and you can be discharged after 4-5 days of hospitalization; **Works well.

After the occluder is implanted, the abnormal blood flow can be completely blocked, and the body's own endothelial cells have been covered on its surface for 1 month, and the endothelial cells will completely embed the occluder after 3 months, and the occluder will not fall off.
