Congenital Heart Diseases (CHD) are diseases and structural defects of heart and large blood vessels which are present at the time of birth. Some of these anomalies can encompass the heart’s walls, valves or blood vessels, consequently influencing blood circulation and oxygen supply to the entire body. The symptoms of CHD can range from mild or nonexistent and not requiring any treatment to severe and requiring surgery. Common types of CHD include Atrial Septal Defect (ASD), Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), and Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA). Prevention and timely treatment is important when it comes to controlling symptoms and therefore encouraging enhanced life prospects of affected individuals.
Diabetes, Obesity, and Stroke are interconnected health issues that significantly impact cardiovascular health.
Diabetes is a chronic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels that can cause long-term damage to blood vessels and neurons. Diabetes patients are more likely to develop atherosclerosis (artery narrowing) and other vascular problems, which increases their chance of having a stroke. Obesity: Being overweight is a significant risk factor for a variety of health issues, including cardiovascular disease and stroke. Stroke: A medical emergency in which blood flow to a portion of the brain is disrupted, resulting in brain damage. Uncontrolled diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, smoking, and high cholesterol all increase the risk of a stroke.
