Caring for Little Hearts That Are Still Growing

Our specialised paediatric cardiac team provides comprehensive and innovative care for infants, children and adolescents with congenital heart conditions.

Working closely across disciplines like paediatric cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery and critical care, we focus on accurate diagnosis, personalised treatment planning and long-term heart health. From early detection and advanced imaging to interventional procedures and surgical care, our goal is to support each child’s growth, development and quality of life through coordinated, family-centred care.

Heart Conditions We Treat

Our team provides expert evaluation and treatment for a wide range of paediatric heart conditions.

Congenital heart disease describes structural abnormalities in the heart that are present from birth. Our team provides personalised monitoring and corrective treatment to support healthy heart function as children grow.

Some children are born with multiple or complex heart abnormalities that may require staged treatments or surgery over time, and our specialists carefully plan each step to support safe growth and development.

Heart valve or outflow tract conditions affect how blood moves through the heart, and early assessment allows our cardiology and surgical teams to determine the most appropriate repair or management strategy.

Children who have undergone heart surgery often require structured follow-up to monitor heart function, physical development and activity levels as they grow. Our hospital provides coordinated post-operative care supported by an in-house Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) equipped with modern, specialised monitoring and life-support systems, ensuring children receive close observation and expert management during the critical recovery period and throughout their long-term cardiac follow-up.

Certain heart conditions, such as Kawasaki disease, rheumatic heart disease or myocarditis, develop after birth. Early specialist care helps prevent long-term cardiac complications.

Families and referring doctors may seek a cardiology-led second opinion to review the diagnosis, evaluate treatment options and determine the most appropriate timing for intervention.

Diagnostic and Assessment Services

Echocardiography and Electrocardiogram (ECG)

These non-invasive tests assess the heart’s structure and electrical activity, helping doctors detect abnormalities in heart rhythm, blood flow and cardiac function.

Cardiac CT and Cardiac MRI

Advanced imaging provides detailed visualisation of the heart and surrounding vessels, supporting accurate diagnosis of complex congenital heart conditions.

Cardiac Catheterisation (Diagnostic)

A thin catheter is guided through blood vessels to the heart to measure pressure, oxygen levels and blood flow, providing important information for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Long-Term Cardiac Monitoring

Portable monitoring devices allow doctors to track a child’s heart rhythm over an extended period to detect intermittent or activity-related rhythm abnormalities.

Fetal and Neonatal Heart Assessment

Specialised cardiac evaluation during pregnancy or shortly after birth helps identify congenital heart conditions early and allows care teams to plan timely intervention. Our cardiologists work closely with fetal-maternal medicine specialists, enabling coordinated prenatal assessment, early counselling for families, and careful planning of delivery and neonatal cardiac care when a heart condition is detected before birth.
