About pediatric heart surgery (ASD/VSD)
Children born with congenital heart defects such as ASD, VSD or Tetralogy of Fallot can be treated by specialist pediatric cardiac surgeons. Many simple defects can be closed with a device through a catheter, with no open surgery.
Dedicated pediatric cardiac ICUs are key, so we only work with hospitals that have them.
Who is it for?
Infants and children diagnosed with congenital heart disease.
Recovery
Device closure: discharge in 2–3 days. Open repair: about 7–10 days in hospital.
