Congenital Heart Disease in Adults

Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) in adults refers to heart defects present at birth that continue to affect individuals into adulthood. These conditions can range from simple issues, such as small holes in the heart, to complex problems requiring multiple surgeries. Advances in pediatric cardiology have improved early detection and treatment, allowing many individuals with CHD to live fulfilling lives. However, they may still face challenges, including heart function issues or arrhythmias, and often require ongoing care from specialized healthcare providers. Regular monitoring and management are essential for maintaining health as they age.
