New conception of interventional therapy for congenital heart disease in neonates

Abstract

The main clinical manifestations of neonatal critical and complex congenital heart disease (CHD) are cardiac insufficiency and severe hypoxemia.Because of the rapid development of the CHD, most children will die early.Through the analysis of the successful interventional treatment of some severe CHDs in the neonatal, the indivi-dualized interventional treatment can be used according to different congenital malformations, and the interventional materials, which are different from the pediatric cardiology, are used reasonably.So many interventional therapies before or after surgery were used, and even, replace traditional surgical treatment to cure or palliate the CHD in neonates. Key words: Congenital heart disease; Interventional therapy; Infant, newborn
