Track: Paediatric Cardiology
“Understanding and Managing Cardiovascular Conditions in Children”
Paediatric cardiology focuses on diagnosing and treating heart conditions in infants, children, and adolescents. This session will cover the unique aspects of cardiovascular care in the paediatric population, from congenital heart defects to acquired heart conditions. Participants will gain insights into the latest diagnostic tools, treatment strategies, and the multidisciplinary approach required for optimal care.
Key Topics and Highlights:
Paediatric Heart Failure: Understand the causes and management of heart failure in children, including dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and myocarditis. This segment will cover pharmacologic treatments, device therapies, and strategies for managing acute and chronic heart failure.
Arrhythmias in Children: Learn about the diagnosis and treatment of arrhythmias in the paediatric population, including supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular arrhythmias, and congenital conduction disorders. Topics will include electrophysiological studies, catheter ablation, and the use of implantable devices.
Cardiac Imaging in Paediatrics: Discover the latest advancements in imaging techniques for paediatric cardiology, including echocardiography, MRI, and CT scans. This discussion will focus on the use of these technologies in diagnosing and monitoring cardiovascular conditions in children.
Transition to Adult Care: Address the challenges and strategies involved in transitioning paediatric cardiology patients to adult care. Topics will include the importance of coordinated care, long-term follow-up, and managing ongoing health needs as patients move into adulthood.
Psychosocial Aspects and Family Support: Examine the psychosocial impact of cardiovascular conditions on children and their families. This segment will cover strategies for providing emotional support, addressing developmental concerns, and involving families in the care process.
Summary:
The "Paediatric Cardiology" session aims to provide a comprehensive overview of cardiovascular care in the paediatric population. By addressing congenital heart defects, heart failure, arrhythmias, preventive care, and imaging techniques, this session will equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge needed to effectively manage cardiovascular conditions in children. Attendees will also gain insights into the challenges of transitioning patients to adult care and the importance of psychosocial support. This session is particularly valuable for paediatric cardiologists, cardiology fellows, paediatricians, and other healthcare providers involved in the care of young patients
