What is the condition of an infant's patent foramen ovale not closing?

Patient's question:

What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Please explain what it means when a child's foramen ovale does not close.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your baby's sleep is not good, and they wake up easily at night and cry. It might be that your baby lacks a sense of security. It is recommended that the mother spends more time with the baby, especially to be present the moment the baby wakes up. Seeing their loved ones nearby will make the baby feel safer. When holding the baby, try to have skin-to-skin contact to let the baby feel the warmth and tenderness of the family. Wishing your baby healthy growth.
