pediatric transplant cardiology

Pediatric transplant cardiology is a specialized medical field focused on children with severe heart disease who need a heart transplant. Specialists evaluate children's heart conditions, determine if a transplant is necessary, and manage their care before and after surgery. The goal is to improve heart function and quality of life. This involves coordinating with a transplant team, monitoring for signs of rejection, and handling medications to prevent that. Overall, it provides critical support for children with life-threatening heart problems, helping them live healthier, longer lives.
