Hello! With the question: "What should I do for ventricular septal disease in children to progress well?" Your doctor will answer as follows:
Ventricular septal defect is a common congenital heart disease. Only a very low percentage are self-occlusive (with small openings), and most require intervention or surgery.
Children with ventricular septal defect need to be cared for, have good nutrition to help improve their health, and monitor their pathology regularly to determine the time of intervention.
You should register for an examination with congenital heart specialists of one of the Vinmec Health System hospitals nationwide for specific instructions.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions about Vinmec. Best regards!
