Being
a single specialty hospital, EHIRC
works single mindedly towards providing
the best to heart patients. In the
private sector EHIRC is the only hospital
with a specialized multi disciplinary
team of Pediatric cardiologists, Pediatric
surgeons, anaesthesiologists and Pediatric
Intensivists who work only towards
child cardiac care. This highly trained
team is vastly experienced and has
pioneered several
cardiac techniques for children. The
department has produced results that
are comparable to the best in the
world.
The department does extensive
echocardiographic work on children
and is one of the rare centres that
feel confident in operating the child
based on the echocardiographic report.
Cardiac defects
in foetal life (unborn child) are
also diagnosed using specialized echocardiography
techniques.
Several Invasive
Pediatric Interventions are performed
routinely:
Dialating obstructive valves- Balloon
Valvuloplasty
Dialating narrow blood vessels- Balloon
Angioplasty Closing abnormal blood
vessels by coil or devices like Patent-ductus
Arteriosis, AV Fistula Atrial septal
defects- by devices placed percutaneously.
Similarly, stage-surgery of complex

are performed, in keeping with the
institute's status as a Tertiary Referral
Centre in the country.
