Treatment depends on the specific condition and its severity. Options include:
- Medications: To manage symptoms, control heart rate, or reduce inflammation. - Surgical Interventions: Procedures such as repairing septal defects, valve replacements, or correcting other structural abnormalities. - Catheter-Based Interventions: Less invasive procedures that can correct certain defects or blockages. - Lifestyle Changes: Diet and exercise modifications to support heart health. - Ongoing Monitoring: Regular check-ups and follow-up tests to monitor the condition and adjust treatments as necessary.
