Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable with my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Please ask about newborn congenital heart disease screening.Doctor's answer:
Newborn congenital heart disease screening can be performed directly with echocardiography to determine if there is a possibility of congenital heart disease. If there is, it can also identify which type of congenital heart disease is present, and the type of surgery can be decided based on the examination results. If the child's heart is normal, further lung examinations can be conducted, such as chest X-rays. Treatment can then be administered based on the examination results.
