What is VSD Treatment?
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) treatment involves medical management or surgical intervention to correct the congenital heart defect known as VSD. It aims to close the abnormal opening between the heart's ventricles, allowing for proper blood flow and improved heart function.
What is the Cost of VSD Treatment?
Treatment name Cost range
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) Treatment Rs.115440 to Rs.153920
Device Closure- ASD VSD Rs.208680 to Rs.278240
Tetralogy of Fallot Repair Rs.199800 to Rs.266400
Who Performs VSD Treatment?
VSD treatment can be performed by a pediatric cardiologist or a cardiothoracic surgeon who specializes in congenital heart defects. These specialists have expertise in diagnosing and managing VSD and determining the most appropriate treatment approach for each patient.
Technology Used in VSD Treatment:
VSD treatment may involve the use of various technologies to facilitate the procedure and enhance outcomes. Some technologies commonly employed include:
Transcatheter closure: This minimally invasive technique involves the use of catheters and specialized devices to close the VSD without open-heart surgery.
Cardiopulmonary bypass machine: In cases where open-heart surgery is required, a cardiopulmonary bypass machine may be used to temporarily take over the heart and lung functions during the procedure.
Advanced imaging techniques: Advanced imaging technologies such as echocardiography, cardiac CT scan, or cardiac MRI can aid in the precise diagnosis, planning, and intraoperative visualization of the VSD.
