Antenatal Diagnosis of Congenital Heart Disease: Early Detection for Better Outcomes

Antenatal diagnosis refers to the detection of congenital heart disease (CHD) in the developing fetus during pregnancy. This early identification is crucial as it allows for timely medical intervention, preparation, and support for both the baby and the expecting parents . Routine prenatal screening tests such as fetal ultrasound scans and maternal blood tests may sometimes indicate a higher risk of CHD, prompting further evaluation with fetal echocardiography.

PH Life Care

Why We Need a Medical Management Program for Pulmonary Hypertension

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex and progressive condition characterized by elevated blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries, leading to significant cardiovascular and functional impairments. A structured medical management program is crucial to effectively manage PH and improve outcomes for patients.

Community Awareness Program

Community awareness regarding congenital heart disease (CHD) is critical for improving health outcomes, reducing mortality, and enhancing the quality of life for affected children. The most Important benefit among many of Community Awareness for CHD is Early Detection and Treatment.

• Recognizing Symptoms: Awareness helps parents and caregivers identify early signs of CHD, such as rapid breathing, bluish skin, and poor feeding, prompting timely medical consultation.

Donation of echocardiography machine and training of doctors in Government hospitals

In order to make Government hospitals self-sustainable to manage pediatric cardiac screening and diagnosis, Child Heart Foundation donates echocardiography machines to district hospitals. Echocardiography is a vital diagnostic tool used to assess cardiac structure and function through ultrasound imaging. The combination of training doctors in echocardiography and donating echo machines can transform cardiac care delivery, particularly in resource-limited settings, leading to profound improvements in health outcomes. Training doctors in echocardiography is essential to ensure accurate interpretation of results, effective patient management, and enhanced cardiovascular care. This training is certified by National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC).

Pediatric Cardiac Centers

Setting up Pediatric Cardiac Centers in Government District Hospitals

Setting up pediatric cardiac centers in government district hospitals involves a comprehensive approach to ensure the centers are equipped, staffed, and managed effectively. These centers are set up in phased plan.

Awareness & Training of Frontline Workers

Community awareness regarding congenital heart disease (CHD) is critical for improving health outcomes, reducing mortality, and enhancing the quality of life for affected children. As frontline workers which includes ASHA and Anganwadi workers are first point of contact to any pregnant women and new born, it is very essential to make them aware about the early symptoms of CHD and train them in oximeter usage.

CHF Medical Camps

Organizing medical camps for the identification of suspected cases of congenital heart disease (CHD) is an effective strategy to enhance early detection and ensure timely intervention, especially in the most vulnerable population. They help in Identifying Undiagnosed Cases facilitating early intervention which is critical for better health outcomes . They serve as an important public health intervention, especially in areas with limited healthcare infrastructure.
