 Hi, I am Dr. Kavya Malikarjan, Consultant Pediatric Cardiologist at Manipal Hospital's Old Airport Road. I am in the Department of Cardiology as Pediatric Cardiology Consultant. My areas of expertise include start from fetal echocardiography and counseling, neonatal clinical evaluation, echo and counseling, pediatric clinical evaluation, echocardiography including trans thoracic and trans esophageal echoes and counseling. I also do structural heart interventions in children like device closures of atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, valvuloplasties in children and coctoplasties. Also we do neonatal cardiac interventions and some of the heart diseases in children like ASDs, VSTs and PDAs without surgery we can close it with device. So this also we do at Manipal Hospital. And at Manipal Hospital the Department of Pediatric Cardiology is equipped with state of the art infrastructure, extremely good echo machine support and also cath lab support. Also we have a very good surgical team and neonatal gene team to support us in neonatal cardiac interventions and postoperative management. Some of the structural heart diseases in children like atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defect and PDA these can be closed without surgery and the recovery time is really very fast. We admit them on the day previous to the procedure, do the procedure and next day discharge with very good post procedural outcomes. So this is one of the areas where I say even newborn structural interventions like valvuloplasties are done routinely at our send cup. With good neonatal gene backup and cardiac surgical team backup we are doing all kinds of newborn cardiac surgeries. We are also offering 24 bar 7 cover to newborn neonates with cardiac problems. And also when we diagnose antinatally with the help of fetal echo there is coordination we can we also offer transport support if the baby is delivered at that particular center. And we retrieve the babies to our NICU or cardiac ICU and have treated them either in the cath lab intervention procedures or in the form of surgical interventions. So all kinds of support including 24 bar 7 we give coverage for pediatric cardiology here at Manipal hospitals. I would like to say to all the parents who have children suffering from heart diseases that is not the end. There is lot of hope with very good positive outcomes. Children are living practically a normal life after having been treated for congenital heart diseases and even acquired heart diseases.
