The field of pediatric cardiology was in its early stages of development when the author of this book began his career in the mid-1960s, meaning that he was able to witness the stepwise evolution of the field over the last 50 years. This book presents this unique historical perspective, describing the development of new knowledge while providing care of patients with heart disease over this time period. It brings together advances made in the field, particularly regarding the management of congenital heart defects.

The life journey of an Indian-American pediatric cardiologist, who bestowed considerable attention to the development of new knowledge and train/teach physicians around the world while providing care of patients with heart disease over a 50-year period, is the subject of this book. The field of Pediatric Cardiology was in early development when the author began his carrier in mid-1960s. The author had the opportunity to witness first hand the stepwise evolution of Pediatric Cardiology over the last 50 years. Unique historical perspective, therefore, can be provided. This book describes these developments along with the author's contributions to Pediatric Cardiology. The purpose of this book is to bring together the advances in Pediatric Cardiology, particularly the management of congenital heart defects. Along the way, art and science of interventional pediatric cardiology will be presented, as applicable to each chapter.
Perinatal cardiology is an important developing field as high quality ultrasound is used on a growing number of pregnant women, and diagnosis prior to birth will become a more common occurrence. In addition, highly sensitive noninvasive diagnostic tools, advances in neonatal care and anesthesia, evolution of transcatheter interventional procedures and performance of complicated surgical procedures in the neonate and young infant have advanced to such an extent that almost all congenital cardiac defects can be diagnosed and “corrected.” Illustrated with over 500 figures, this book by leaders in the fields of pediatric cardiology, neonatology, pediatric cardiovascular surgery and intervent...

Recent developments in diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of cardiac and neonatal issues have advanced the care of the newborn. In order to achieve excellence in cardiac care, however, close interaction and collaboration of the pediatric cardiologists with neonatologists, pediatricians, general/family practitioners (who care for children), anesthesiologists, cardiac surgeons, pediatric cardiac intensivists, and other subspecialty pediatricians is mandatory. This book provides the reader with up-to-date, evidence-based information in three major areas of neonatology and prenatal and neonatal cardiology. First, it offers an overview of advances in the disciplines of neonatology, prenatal and n...
