cardiac surgery care

Congenital heart defects affect approximately nine out of every 1,000 children born in India, as per a 2018 scientific report. These conditions often require ongoing medical or surgical intervention to ensure optimal health and development. Majority of the children with common congenital heart defects lead a normal life after cardiac surgery. Many parents will need financial support for surgery.
