Pediatric Preventive Cardiology

Pediatric Preventive Cardiology focuses on the heart health of children, aiming to prevent heart-related issues before they occur. This specialty involves monitoring and assessing risk factors like obesity, high cholesterol, and family history of heart disease, which can affect a child's long-term cardiovascular health. Pediatric cardiologists provide guidance on healthy lifestyle choices—such as proper nutrition and physical activity—to help children maintain a healthy heart. By addressing these aspects early on, the goal is to reduce the risk of developing heart disease later in life, ensuring a healthier future for young patients.
