Warning signs in infants include rapid breathing or breathlessness while feeding, profuse head sweating during breastfeeding, poor weight gain / failure to thrive, recurrent chest infections, and bluish discoloration of the lips, tongue, or nail beds (cyanosis). In older children, signs include unexplained chest pain, dizziness, or fainting during exercise.

A heart murmur is an extra whooshing sound heard through a stethoscope between heartbeats. The majority of murmurs in children are "innocent" or functional murmurs caused by normal rapid blood flow through a healthy heart. A pediatric echocardiogram distinguishes an innocent murmur from one caused by a structural congenital heart hole.

Many small muscular VSDs and tiny ASDs close naturally during the first few years of childhood. For holes that do not close on their own, pediatric cardiologists routinely perform non-surgical transcatheter device closures (inserting an umbrella-like nitinol device via a leg vein under X-ray guidance) without surgical incisions or chest scars.

Fetal echocardiography is a specialized, detailed ultrasound of the unborn baby’s heart performed between 18 and 22 weeks of pregnancy. It is recommended for pregnancies with abnormal routine anomaly scans, family histories of congenital heart defects, maternal diabetes, IVF conceptions, or twin gestations.

Kawasaki disease is an acute inflammatory illness in children under 5 causing high fever lasting over 5 days, strawberry tongue, red bloodshot eyes, body rash, and swollen lymph nodes. If untreated, it causes severe coronary artery aneurysms. Early treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and echocardiographic monitoring prevents long-term heart damage.

Bring your child’s birth records, growth and weight charts, previous pediatric clinic notes, any past ECG or chest X-ray films, and recent ultrasound or echocardiogram reports.
