Paediatric and Foetal Cardiology

At our Paediatric Cardiology Department, we are dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment and long-term care of heart conditions in children — from newborns to adolescents. With a compassionate team and advanced technology, we provide personalised treatment plans designed to ensure every child receives the expert care they deserve.

Our Specialised Services include:

Diagnostic Work Up

  • Foetal Echocardiography

    A specialised ultrasound to detect heart issues before birth.

    Key benefits:

    Early Detection: High-resolution imaging to identify congenital heart defects, Foetal arrhythmia and Foetal cardiac dysfunction

    Prenatal Planning: Helping families prepare for treatment after delivery. We also provide facility of advanced Foetal cardiac imaging including STIC and 4-D Foetal echocardiography.

  • Paediatric Echocardiography and Color Doppler Study

    Detects the majority of Congenital Heart Defects such as ASD, VSD, PDA, Valvular Stenotic and Regurgitant Lesions and complex anatomies like Tetralogy of Fallot, DORV, TGA, Truncus Arteriosus and Single Ventricle Physiology.

    Detects Functional Cardiac Abnormalities such as Dilated Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Restrictive Cardiomyopathy.

    Detects Pulmonary Hypertension and helps in both Diagnosis and Prognostication, as well as in assessing the response to therapy.

Medical Management

  • Cardiomyopathy & Heart Failure

    This condition affects the heart muscle's ability to pump blood effectively. Our approach includes:

    Medication Management: To strengthen heart function and manage symptoms.

    Lifestyle Guidance: Personalised advice on diet, exercise and daily activities.

    Advanced Interventions: In severe cases, pacemakers or defibrillators may be implanted.

  • Arrhythmias

    Irregular heart rhythms can range from harmless to life-threatening. We provide:

    Electrophysiology Studies: Mapping the heart’s electrical system to pinpoint abnormalities.

    Medications: Tailored anti-arrhythmic drug regimens.

    Ablation Therapy: Targeted catheter-based treatment to correct faulty heart rhythms.

    Pacemaker Implantation: To support and regulate heartbeat in critical cases.

  • Bacterial Endocarditis

    An infection of the heart’s inner lining requiring urgent care. Treatment options include:

    IV Antibiotics: Powerful, targeted antibiotic therapy.

    Surgical Repair: In cases of valve damage, surgical intervention may be necessary.

  • Heart Syndromes & Myocarditis

    We specialise in the treatment of various heart syndromes and myocarditis (inflammation of the heart). Treatment involves:

    Comprehensive Diagnostics: Including Echocardiograms, MRIs and Lab Tests.

    Anti-inflammatory Medications: To reduce heart inflammation and support recovery.

    Ongoing Monitoring: With regular follow-ups and tailored care plans.

  • Pulmonary Hypertension

    High pulmonary pressure can strain the heart and affect breathing. Management includes:

    Medications: Such as vasodilators to reduce lung pressure.

    Oxygen Therapy: To improve oxygen levels and ease symptoms.

    Interventional Procedures: When necessary, catheter-based treatments are performed.

  • Paediatric Inflammatory Multisystem Syndrome (PIMS)

    Linked to COVID-19, PIMS causes inflammation in multiple organs including the heart. Care includes:

    IVIG and Steroids: To combat inflammation.

    Intensive Support: In critical cases, care is provided in a paediatric ICU setting.

  • Kawasaki Disease

    A condition that inflames blood vessels and can impact the heart. Treatment involves:

    IVIG Infusion: To reduce inflammation and prevent coronary complications.

    Aspirin Therapy: To lower inflammation and reduce clot risk.

    Long-Term Monitoring: With regular Echocardiograms.

  • Syndromes with Cardiac Diseases

    We manage heart-related complications in genetic and developmental syndromes. Services include:

    Detailed Cardiac Assessment: Using advanced diagnostics.

    Individualised Care Plans: Focused on the child’s unique medical needs.

  • Neonatal Pulmonary Hypertension (PPHN)

    A critical condition in newborns that demands immediate care. Treatment strategies include:

    Respiratory Support: Including advanced ventilation techniques.

    Inhaled Nitric Oxide Therapy: To relax blood vessels and improve oxygenation.

    ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation): For life-saving support in severe cases.

Your child’s heart is in expert hands.

Paediatric and Congenital Cardiac Surgery

Paediatric and Congenital Cardiac Surgery is a specialised field focussing on diagnosing and treating heart defects present since birth (congenital). These delicate surgical procedures are performed on neonates, infants, children and adolescents to repair structural abnormalities in the heart and restore healthy circulation and function.

At Neotia Bhagirathi Woman and Child Care Centre, New Town, our experienced paediatric cardiac surgical team is determined to provide world-class care for some of the most complex heart conditions in children offering hope and healing to families from around the every socioeconomic layers.

Cardiac Anaesthesia and Critical Care

Caring for children with heart conditions requires more than just medical knowledge—it demands precision, empathy and highly specialised skills. Our Paediatric Cardiac Anaesthesia and Critical Care team is dedicated to providing safe, expert care for neonates, infants, children and adolescents undergoing cardiac surgery or interventions.

What is Paediatric Cardiac Anaesthesia?

Paediatric cardiac anaesthesia is a super-specialised field focusing on children with congenital or acquired heart diseases. From newborns with complex cardiac anomalies to older children undergoing corrective cardiac surgeries, our anaesthesiologists tailor anaesthesia plans based on age, weight, heart function and overall health.

Our services include:

Preoperative assessment and planning.
Anaesthetic management for open-heart surgeries on cardiopulmonary bypass (e.g., ASD / VSD repair, Tetralogy of Fallot correction, arterial switch operations, etc).
Sedation and anaesthesia for cardiac catheterizations, cathlab interventions and imaging (MRI / CT).
Ultrasound guided invasive lines.
Intraoperative monitoring including paediatric transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) / neonatal epicardial echocardiography.
Intraoperative Transcranial Doppler for complex cardiac surgery involving the arch of aorta to optimize cerebral protection.

Paediatric Cardiac Critical Care

Post-surgery, children are closely monitored in our Paediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (PCICU), which is specially designed for the needs of young patients. Also preoperative or preprocedural optimization is done when required. Our critical care specialists are trained in managing:

  • Neonatal and paediatric ventilatory support.

  • Arrhythmias and post-operative bleeding.

  • Cardiorespiratory and haemodynamic instability with inotropic therapy and extended cardiopulmonary bypass when needed.

  • Multisystem organ support for complex conditions.
