Introduction: Congenital heart disease is a lot of babies at birth, such a condition will affect the baby's physical health, but also affect their growth and development, so why do babies have congenital heart disease?
There are many parents who feel that they are obviously healthy, and they have also done tests before getting married, they do not have any genetic history, and their chromosomes are normal, why do children born have congenital heart disease? This is because there are many causes of congenital heart disease, and genetic factors actually account for only about 8% of the cases. Most of the reasons are caused by the bad external environment at the time of pregnancy, that is, during pregnancyFor example, some women do not supplement enough folic acid during pregnancy, or catch a cold during pregnancy, or are infected with viruses, etc., such conditions will induce congenital heart disease in children.
Congenital heart disease refers to the development disorder or abnormality of a child's own development due to heart or blood vessel disorders during their own development. And after birth, the vascular channels inside your heart may not close automatically. Once a congenital heart attack occurs, it will cause the child's blood circulation system to be blocked, resulting in growth retardation, heart failure, high blood pressure and other complications.
Moreover, children with congenital heart disease are usually very poor in constitution, very easy to catch colds, and also have difficulties in feeding, and it is easy to faint suddenly.
The prevention of congenital heart disease is still to create a good environment for pregnant mothers, first of all, there should be no bad habits. Second, you should not be exposed to some things that are harmful to your child's health, and at the same time, you should strengthen your health care in diet and exercise, and supplement more folic acid. It is to eat more vegetables and fruits, supplement folic acid, and conduct regular pregnancy tests to detect problems in time.

There are many cases of congenital heart disease in babies, which may be caused by genetic mutations in the embryonic stage, or they may be caused by parental inheritance. In the first 3 months of pregnancy to about 6 months of pregnancy, it belongs to the high incidence of fetal congenital heart disease, if the husband and wife belong to the immediate family, the risk of congenital heart disease of the baby can be increased by about 5 to 6 times.
-
Environmental factors, if the environment is very polluted, can cause the baby to have this disease, if the mother is sick when she is pregnant, and then takes certain drugs, this will also cause this disease.
-
Congenital heart disease in babies is usually caused by a family history, and it may be a family member of the family.
-
In general, the baby will have congenital heart disease in the family, and in this case, there are relatives in the parents' respective families who have a history of congenital heart disease.
-
In fact, it may be genetic, or it may be caused by genetic mutations.
-
Family genetic mother has congenital heart disease, pregnancy will affect the fetus, born baby will have congenital heart disease, and there is a person in the family who has heart disease, which may also be inherited, so the pregnant mother is uncomfortable when pregnant, ask the obstetrician and gynecologist not to take medicine privately, do prenatal examination on time, and the baby should be regularly checked for what is wrong with the baby after birth.

Congenital heart disease is a relatively common disease among congenital malformations, accounting for about 28% of all congenital malformations. Generally speaking, the formation of the heart and large blood vessels is hindered during embryonic development, and there are anatomical abnormalities such as developmental abnormalities, and the heart is abnormal after the birth of the child. Therefore, after discovering this situation, it is necessary to take ** measures in time.
So what are the usual symptoms of congenital heart disease?
1. Growth and development are restricted.
Children with congenital heart disease generally have poor growth and development, and often have physical emaciation and abnormal sweating during the development process. If parents find out that their children have this condition, most of what happens is related to congenital heart disease and therefore needs to be taken seriously.
2. Decreased resistance.
After the appearance of congenital heart disease, the heart function is greatly reduced, and the resistance is also affected. Patients usually have recurrent respiratory infections, colds, etc., and in severe cases, pneumonia is often born. Therefore, after detecting this abnormal symptom, it is necessary to perform a ** on congenital heart disease.
3. Easy fatigue and weakness.
In general, a common symptom of congenital heart disease is fatigue easily. Children can express their physical exhaustion and their mental state can become very poor. This is associated with a decline in heart function, so be alert to congenital heart disease when detecting this.
4. Difficulty in breastfeeding.
After the general occurrence of Tianxian heart disease, young children will have difficulty breastfeeding, weakness and weakness during breastfeeding, and usually will have symptoms of shortness of breath. Therefore, after detecting these abnormal signs, it is necessary to be alert to congenital heart disease, which is associated with the development of heart disease, which only occurs when the child's heart function is declining.
5. Nails and lips above color.
When a child has congenital heart disease, it can be known by some changes in the body. Generally suffering from congenital heart disease, the nails are often purple or the lip color is strange, and it is easy to cry. Once these abnormalities are detected, an electrocardiogram (ECG) should be performed in time to understand the health of the heart.
How do I care for a baby with a congenital heart defect?
1. Do a good job of early diagnosis.
Prenatal care for pregnant women can avoid the occurrence of heart defects in the baby, so it is important to have regular labor check-ups. This is because many heart defects come from the mother's infection. Once diagnosed during pregnancy, you can get better care ahead of time.
2. Follow the doctor's instructions.
Depending on the severity of your child's condition, the doctor will tell you how to care for and avoid a heart attack, as well as how to provide emergency relief if the child has an illness. Follow your doctor's instructions and don't take care of your child in your own way.
3. Pay attention to your children at all times.
Your child may have a lot of physical activity when he or she grows up, so pay special attention to your child's condition to avoid situations where you don't need to work on your heart and get sick.
4. Be sure to make regular rounds.
Babies with congenital conditions should have regular consultations and health check-ups. This prevents other complications, early ** exacerbation of the disease.
-
Now like a baby with heart disease, there will be symptoms of shortness of breath, chest tightness, and poor breathing. Baby, if you find that you have congenital heart disease, you must go to a regular hospital**, do not delay the baby's condition.
-
There will be cyanosis and purple of the complexion, as well as paleness of the nails and lips. Activity is not tolerated. Often prone to wheezing, shortness of breath, and low immunity, will be prone to illness and cold.
-
1. Frequent colds, repeated bronchitis and pneumonia.
2. Difficulty in feeding or infant refusal to eat, choking cough, often stop eating, shortness of breath, paleness, breathlessness, etc.
3. Persistent cyanosis is most obvious at the tip of the nose, lips, and nail beds.

Hello, in the first three months of pregnancy, pregnant women are affected by viral infections, radioactive radiation and certain drugs, lack of nutrition and certain genetic factors, which make the fetus's heart develop abnormally, which can lead to congenital heart disease. I hope you find my answer helpful and I wish you good health and happiness.
-
In infancy, it is found that feeding difficulties, lack of weight gain, thin body, developmental delay, shortness of breath, cyanosis of the lips, and easy access to colds may be congenital heart disease

Congenital heart disease is a malformation of the heart vessels caused by abnormal development of blood vessels in the heart during the fetal period, and is the most common heart disease in childhood. Including atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, tetralogy of Fallot, large vessel misalignment, pulmonary artery stenosis, aortic coarctation, etc.
In the past 20 years, due to the development of advanced modern examination technology and the progress of cryogenic anesthesia, cardiopulmonary bypass and cardiac surgery, many common congenital heart diseases can be accurately diagnosed and surged, and some complex heart malformations can also be operated on.
1. **: Any factors that affect the development of the heart embryo during the fetal period may cause heart malformations, such as rubella, epidemics, mumps, coxsackievirus infection, diabetes, hypercalcemia, etc., and the pregnant mother is exposed to radiation; Pregnant mothers take anti-cancer drugs or drugs such as mettoconin.
2. Clinical manifestations:
1. Children may lag behind in growth and development compared with children of the same age, and are susceptible to respiratory tract infections.
2. Atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus usually have no bruising in the early stage, but bruising may occur after strenuous activity or crying and laughing, and bruising may occur in the late stage with age. Right-to-left shunt congenital heart disease, severe cardiac malformations, such as tetralogy of Fallot, can occur after birth or weeks to months in children with bruising, and gradually worsen.
3. Cardiac auscultation, systolic murmur can be heard at the left sternal edge.
4. Children with tetralogy of Fallot need to squat down frequently to rest during activities to reduce shortness of breath, and sometimes fainting (temporary cerebral hypoxia changes) may occur, and even convulsions may be life-threatening; In addition, children with tetralogy of Fallot have bulging fingers and toes at the ends of their fingers and toes, called clubbing.
In addition, atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus are often prone to pneumonia and heart failure, and tetralogy of Fallot can often be complicated by cerebral thrombosis and brain abscess, and the above-mentioned congenital heart diseases are prone to bacterial endocarditis in addition to atrial septal defect.
3. Diagnostic measures:
Cardiac radiography, electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiac echocardiogram (ECG)** may be performed. Echocardiology** examination has the greatest diagnostic value, which can show the size, location, blood shunt and other vascular malformations of atrial septal and ventricular septal defects; Cardiac catheterization and cardiovascular angiography should be performed before surgery to further confirm the diagnosis and prepare for surgery.
Fourth, ** method:
1. Surgery**: Congenital heart disease is surgery**, which can generally be operated at the age of 4-5 years, such as severe symptoms or bacterial endocarditis that can not be controlled for a long time.
2. Internal medicine**: Internal medicine before congenital heart disease surgery is mainly to avoid strenuous activities, prevent or **infection, and if there is heart failure, it should be active**.
When congenital heart disease appears, it is first necessary to actively accept **, there are many methods in current medicine, you can choose conservative**, choose surgery**, and you can also consider intervention**, choose the right **method can achieve good results, will not affect the condition. >>>More
In daily situations, we should let him stay calm at all times, do not have this kind of joy or compassion, and secondly, try to let him go to bed early and get up early, develop more regular living habits, pay attention to light diet, and finally remember that the living environment must maintain air circulation, never go to crowded places.
1.Congenital heart disease, which is common in infants, is possible. If the baby has an atrial septal defect, it is a small secondary foramen type, and the natural closure rate is 15% within 4 years of age. >>>More
Hello, in view of the variability of the condition, it is recommended to visit the hospital to check the recent color ultrasound, understand the recent condition, and guide**; It is not known the current age of the child, given the results of previous examinations, it is a small atrial defect that is around one year old with the possibility of spontaneous recovery. It is recommended to have regular re-examinations, and if there is no self-healing, it is recommended to visit the hospital as soon as possible, because with the increase of age, complications will gradually increase, and the condition will gradually worsen, affecting the effect of **. If not, the danger of seizures is always present. >>>More
There should be no surgery anymore, and there is no need to go to Guangdong, that is, Liu Yinglong in Beijing and Xu Zhiwei in Shanghai, let's take a look at the two of them.
