Overview
Cardiac Surgery at Solapur Pride Hospital specializes in all streams of cardiac surgery and is renowned for dealing with complex heart problems.
Cardiac surgery in children is recommended to repair heart defects and for the child’s wellbeing in the long-term. Certain heart defects may demand immediate surgery after birth. In some cases, surgeries are performed months or even years after birth. The type and number of surgeries needed vary on the severity of the condition. Pediatric heart surgeons are trained to offer exclusive and comprehensive care to treat children and mend the defected heart.
Minimally invasive treatment procedures are considered for the patients initially. If they do not work out, the health care team is ready to proceed with more invasive methods to prevent infection and reduce risks. This period of time is very crucial for parents. Pride Hospital realizes the situation of the parents and communicates with them regularly to update the status of their child.

Recovery from Child Cardiac Surgery: What to expect?
Post-surgery, the child will be kept in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for a couple of days for observation. The patient will be sent home depending on the surgery performed and the condition of the infant/child post-surgery. 3-4 weeks is the estimated period for recovery at home. This can extend to 6-8 weeks in case of severe surgeries.
