Summary:
Hence if the heart faces a problem like a congenital heart defect, life can be a tricky treat, especially during childhood. Congenital heart defect (CHD) is a manner of saying that an individual suffers from heart issues from the time s/he was born. Kids who have a heart defect are usually born with it. In some serious cases though, surgery or a cardiac catheterisation might be required to lessen the effects of the heart defect, or to overall repair the defect. In case of severe concerns, the child can be taken to either a paediatric cardiologist or a paediatric heart surgeon..
