Pediatric Cardiology

The early medical management of Heart Failure in infancy, childhood, and adolescence is necessary to save a child life. Pharmacologic therapy represents the mainstay of treatment for heart failure in children. Regenerating heart tissue through stem cell therapy is the new technique to cure the heart diseases.

Other than the use of cardiac drugs, one therapy call, stem cell therapy and most commonly medicine use to treat or prevent the cardiac diseases are diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, beta blockers, cardiac glycosides, antiplatelet agent, inotropic therapy, statins or cholesterol reducing drugs, prostaglandins inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers etc. These are the main category of medicines used to treat the heart diseases. Pulmonary Medicine has a long history of providing expert care to children and adolescents with pulmonary and sleep disorders.

Millions of children around the world are alive and thriving today because of medical research that led to prevention strategies, treatments or cures for once-common causes of childhood illness and death.

Advancements:

Immunizations

Helping preemies breathe

Reducing SIDS

Childhood cancer

Reducing HIV

Pediatric clinical research is key to developing treatments for childhood disease and illnesses.  Since so few products are labeled for pediatric use, doctors often find themselves making difficult choices when it comes to treating childhood illness, including prescribing drugs designed and licensed for adults to children without adequate safety and dosing data. Successful pediatric clinical studies have the potential to create new standards of care, increase dosage accuracy, and potentially even save lives.

^{_{How it works:}}

Pediatric research studies range from very small pilot studies to large nationwide studies. Many studies compare the effects of a new drug with those of a placebo or existing treatment. Some studies are also targeted toward the hyper-specific age range of the intended drug; for instance, if drug manufacturers hope to target infants with a drug, then the drug must be tested on infant participants.

Pediatric nursing is a medical care of toddlers up to adolescence. It develops realistic, functional and coordinated domestic care plans for the adolescents and families. Pediatric nurses analyze ailment and harm, and provide training and guide to patient’s families. General Pediatrics presents the nursing care to youth of all ages who are struggling from acute and persistent clinical and surgical conditions. It also include preventive, promotive and rehabilitative acre of children.

Progressing Advancements in Pediatric Surgery have been made in a couple of fields. Initiating work in the midst of the formative extended lengths of the power has enabled various deadly innate bends to be helped. The cautious cure of adolescence sickness has furthermore advanced gigantically.

Setting off to the more modern day advances of Minimal Access Surgery in paediatrics the fittingness of some new movements in Pediatric medicinal methodology was slower to make than its person accomplice due to the fact of the nonappearance of fittingly estimated instruments. Notwithstanding these more than a few obstructions in Minimal Invasive Surgery (MIS) of children the power progressed. At this moment, the amounts of Minimally Invasive Surgery strategies being carried out in the Pediatric age whole are developing rapidly. Crucial to its thriving is advancing in development, availability of humbler estimated devices and better getting ready.

Atherosclerosis starts offevolved in early existence with the creases of corridor greasy streaks. Corridor greasy streaks a couple of levels are found in lots every body from every human masses that has been considered. The everyday measure of conduit intimae ground blanketed greasy streaks does no longer disagree considerable amongst human populaces. While greasy streaking is clinically and potentially reversible, the motion of greasy streaks to extra conventional sores would possibly be a widespread segment of solidifying of the courses. This transformation occurs at prior a while in populaces with unreasonable dreariness and mortality from coronary cardiovascular ailment.

The enchancment of stringy plaque starts offevolved in 1920s. in this way, paying little thought to the way that administration applications that get to the bottom of to lessen back coronary cardiovascular confusion via ceasing solidifying of the supply routes may also meet a couple of accomplishment when performed to old people, these projects have to be coordinated toward men and women for the duration of the 1920s and Nineteen Thirties for perfect endowments.

Anaesthesiology function in Pediatric Surgery, as it is very vital the key position gamers by means of the Anaesthesiologist for the duration of the Surgery

Pediatric anaesthesiologists commonly supply the following services:

• Pediatric anaesthesiologists via and large provide the accompanying administrations:

• Assessment of complex medicinal troubles in babies and youngsters when medical manner is required

• Arranging of consideration for previously, amid, and after scientific procedure

• Giving Anaesthesia Care amid clinical procedure

• Cultivating a nonthreatening situation for youngsters in the working room

• Torment control, if crucial after clinical procedure, both with intravenous (IV) meds or other analgesic strategies

Anaesthesia and sedation for some, methodology out of the working room, for example, MRI, CT sweep, and radiation treatment.

Cardiac tumors in teens are rare, are more frequently benign. Rhabdomyoma, tetratoma, and fibroma are the most frequent tumors in fetuses and neonates. Sarcomas are the most common most important malignant Cardiac tumors in both teenagers and adults. Patients with cardiac tumors can be asymptomatic or might also be current with murmur, arrhythmia, heart failure and unexpected death. Echocardiography is the essential modality for contrast of symptomatic patients.

Heart failure can be characterized as an unexpected stop in powerful blood stream because of the disappointment of the heart. It is caused when the heart's electrical framework breakdowns. The individual segment in the meeting discusses all the connected heart illnesses. In heart failure demise results when the heart unexpectedly quits working appropriately. This might be brought about by unusual, or unpredictable, heart rhythms, cardiomyopathy (A thickened heart muscle), Heart prescriptions, Electrical variations from the norm, Electrical irregularities, Recreational medication employments. A few indications of the capture could be an unexpected loss of responsiveness, strange breathing, swooning, weariness, power outages, discombobulation, chest torment, windedness, shortcoming, and retching. The most well-known reason for Cardiac capture is the coronary illness. Coronary course infection regularly brings about coronary ischemia and ventricular fibrillation.

Pediatric Cardiology Conference-2023 welcomes all the Pediatricians, Cardiologists, Researchers, Pulmonologists, Student Communities, Academic & Business Delegates from Medical, Health Care institutions to join this conference in Chicago, USA. The Conference provides an excellent opportunity to share, exchange knowledge and establish research collaborations and networking. Pediatric Cardiology Conference-2023 is an initiative to bring together the diverse communities working in the field of cardiology to help millions of children fighting with heart diseases, for better treatment and medication alternatives.

A birth defect is happens when children’s are developing in the mother's body. Most birth defects happen during the first 3 months of pregnancy. The various birth defects are like heart defects, alcohol syndrome, Down syndrome, Fragile X syndrome, Anotia/Microtia and many more. For most birth defects, the cause is unknown

Cardiovascular Diseases are types of heart disease observed in children and adolescents.  Rheumatic heart diseases are thought to result from an autoimmune response, but the exact pathogenesis remains unclear. As many as 39% of patients with acute rheumatic fever may develop varying degrees of pancarditis with associated valve insufficiency, heart failure, pericarditis, and even death.

This track include more about the acute coronary syndromes, Congestive Heart Failure, inflammatory heart diseases, Pediatric angina pectoris, ischaemic heart diseases, rheumatic heart diseases, valvular heart diseases, peripheral artery diseases, pulmonary embolism and vascular rings.

During the past decade, our understanding of the pathophysiology of coronary artery disease (CAD) has undergone a remarkable evolution. We review here how these advances have altered our concepts of and clinical approaches to both the chronic and acute phases of CAD. Previously considered a cholesterol storage disease, we currently view atherosclerosis as an inflammatory disorder. Aggressive management of modifiable risk factors reduces cardiovascular events and should accompany appropriate revascularization. The main evaluation factors are Cardiovascular Biology, Blood Cholesterol & Obesity, Family history, Heart Physiology and Computational Biology of Heart etc.

Childhood lungs diseases is not a disease but a group of disorders However, most lungs diseases share a common pathophysiologic feature, namely, structural remodelling of the distal airspaces, leading to impaired gas exchange. In general, this remodelling has been believed to be the sequela of persistent inflammation; however, more recently, the paradigm has shifted away from inflammation to one of tissue injury with aberrant wound healing resulting in collagenous fibrosis

Some miscellaneous cardiac diseases are cardiomegaly-an enlarged heart. But it's usually caused by high blood pressure (hypertension) or coronary artery disease. Marfan syndrome inherited genetic defect weakens connective tissues- including those in the heart. Cardio-metabolic risk refers to your chances of having diabetes, heart disease or stroke. Kawasaki disease is a rare childhood illness that affects the blood vessels.  A rare birth defect, heterotaxy syndrome usually involves heart defects of varying types and severity.

Under this the major sub-track are cardiovascular diseases in diabetes, cardiovascular diseases in pregnancy, sports cardiology, non-coronary myocardial disease, infectious diseases of the heart, cardio-metabolic disorder, cardio oncology cerebrovascular diseases (stroke), Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, Kawasaki disease, Marfan syndrome and heterodoxy syndrome.

A heart transplant is a surgical procedure performed to remove the diseased heart from a patient and replace it with a healthy one from an organ donor. In order to remove the heart from the donor, two or more doctors must declare the donor brain-dead. Before a person can be put on a waiting list for a heart transplant, a doctor makes the determination that this is the best treatment option available for the person's heart failure.  The most common reason is that one or both ventricles have aren't functioning properly and severe heart failure is present. Ventricular failure can happen in many forms of congenital heart disease, but is more common in congenital defects with a single ventricle or if long-standing valve obstruction or leakage has led to irreversible heart failure. While a heart transplant is a major operation, your chance of survival is good, with appropriate follow-up care.

Cancers are an abnormal growth in the muscle. Heart tumors, also called cardiac tumors, are extremely rare in children. Primary lung neoplasms are also rare in children, but they comprise a broad and interesting spectrum of lesions, some of which are familiar from other tissue sites, and some of which are unique to the Pediatric lung. This session mainly focus on the different type of pediatric heart and lungs cancer as Myxomas & Fibromas, Lung Carcinoma, Rhabdomyosarcoma and Angiosarcoma etc.

If your child shows signs of having an abnormal heart rhythm (an arrhythmia), staff from our Electrophysiology Service will evaluate her heart's electrical system using an electrophysiology study (EPS). Arrhythmias result when the heart's electrical system functions abnormally or when there is an extra electrical connection or abnormal electrical focus in the heart.

Pediatric electrophysiologists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of rhythm abnormalities in pediatric, congenital heart disease, and inherited arrhythmia syndrome patients. The field originated out of the unique knowledge base that rhythm management in young patients required. In the 1970s, pediatric electrophysiology was recognized as a distinct cardiac subspecialty and it has evolved rapidly since that time. Despite the considerable growth in personnel, technology, and complexity that the field has undergone, further opportunities to progress pediatric electrophysiology exist.

Interventional cardiology refers to diagnostics and non-surgical treatments of the heart. Cardiac interventions are used to diagnosis and treat many types of heart disease. Stanford interventional cardiology is a world leader in percutaneous coronary revascularization, which re-establishes blood flow to the heart when its vessels have been damaged or blocked. Each year, the staffs of the Section of Invasive and Interventional Cardiology see thousands of patients with almost every kind of heart disease. Our interventionists treat people of all ages from around the world who have serious, sometimes life-threatening, cardiac conditions.

Pediatric cardiologists are trained to diagnose and treat heart problems in infants, children and young adults. Severe heart disease generally becomes evident during the first few months after birth. Some babies are blue or have very low blood pressure shortly after birth. Other defects cause breathing difficulties, feeding problems, or poor weight gain. Pediatric cardiologists are help to diagnose the heart diseases based on the medical and family histories, risk factors, a physical exam, and the results from tests and procedures as Echocardiography  that is very basic test to check whether heart is having any problem or not. After the diagnosis only patient risk factor will determine and treatment will start.

The various diagnosis tests are used for specially heart disease as Pediatric angiocardiography, cardiac solography, electrophysiology test, heart MRI, Fetal echocardiography, Pediatric Interventional Cardiology endothelial function evaluation, electrophysiological studies, blood pressure monitoring and Pediatric nuclear cardiology etc. Pediatric nuclear cardiology studies use non-invasive techniques to assess myocardial blood flow, evaluate the pumping function of the heart as well as visualize the size and location of a heart attack.

In childhood a disorder which involves both the heart and lungs problems, called Pediatric Cardiopulmonary disease. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is the visceral fat deposit around the heart and is commonly increased in obese subjects. EAT is related to Cardio Metabolic risk factors and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adults, but this relationship is not well known in children. (MI) Myocardial infarction is rare in childhood and adolescence. Children usually have either an acute inflammatory condition of the coronary arteries diseases or an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery (LCA). Peripheral vascular diseases (PVDs) are circulation disorders that affect blood vessels outside of the heart and brain. In PVD, blood vessels are narrowed. Narrowing is usually caused by arteriosclerosis. We will be discussed more about the common problem of the baby heart as Cardiomyopathy, Myocarditis, Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, Hypertension, Heart Murmur, Cardiac Arrest, Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia, Cyanotic Heart Disease, and Pediatric Arrhythmia as well as more about Pediatric lungs disorders as Upper Airway Abnormalities, Child Interstitial Lung Disease (child), Chronic and Recurrent Respiratory Infections, Congenital Abnormalities and Pediatrics Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases etc.

The two most common types of stroke are ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke: Ischaemic strokes happen when the artery that supplies blood to your brain is blocked, for example by a blood clot and haemorrhagic strokes happen when a blood vessel bursts and bleeds into  your brain, damaging brain tissue and starving some of your brain cells of blood and oxygen. Without a constant blood supply, your brain cells will be damaged or die, which can affect the way your body and mind work.

A congenital heart defect is an abnormality present at birth. Most heart defects are spotted during childhood, but sometimes a person may reach adulthood before discovering a heart defect. Congenital heart defects are partly preventable through rubella vaccination, the adding of iodine to salt, and the adding of folic acid to certain food products.

This session will give brief information on atrial septal defect, Cineangiography, ventricular septal defect, Coarctation of the aorta, transposition of the great arteries, tetralogy of Fallot, acquired heart diseases, aortic dissection, myocardial infarction, pleural effusion, Endocarditis, Atrial Fibrillation atherosclerosis and many more. About the sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the unexpected death caused by loss of heart function or cardiac stroke.

Clinical pediatrics is the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. The aim of this section is to offer a platform to pediatric clinicians, physicians, and healthcare professionals to present cutting-edge basic and applied health research; and quality clinical services in general and specialty pediatrics.
