Pediatric Cardiology

At Diagnostic Center “Heart”, we offer specialized care for the heart health of children from newborns to 18 years of age. Our pediatric cardiology office is equipped with the necessary diagnostic technology, and examinations are carried out by an experienced specialist with attention, patience, and an age-appropriate approach tailored to each child’s condition.

Cardiac problems in children may be congenital or acquired, and some can occur without clear symptoms. That’s why timely consultation is important—even when it’s only for a suspicion or preventive check. We provide reliable diagnostics, follow-up, and recommendations—with maximum precision and clear language for parents.

What is pediatric cardiology?

Pediatric cardiology focuses on identifying and monitoring heart conditions in children—from newborns to adolescents. It includes evaluating the heart’s structure and function, diagnosing heart murmurs, arrhythmias, congenital defects, and conditions presenting with shortness of breath, fatigue, or rapid heartbeat.

At our center, we offer both initial assessments and follow-up consultations after a diagnosis or referral from a pediatrician.

When should you consult a pediatric cardiologist?

A consultation with a pediatric cardiologist is recommended in the following cases:

  • Heart murmur detected by a pediatrician
  • Frequent complaints of palpitations, skipped or rapid heartbeat
  • Shortness of breath, easy fatigue, or pallor during physical activity
  • Chest pain, especially in older children
  • Dizziness or fainting
  • Newborns with congenital anomalies or after high-risk pregnancy
  • Family history of heart disease
  • Suspected high blood pressure
  • Monitoring after a viral infection, especially COVID-19, flu, or scarlet fever
  • Preventive exam for children involved in sports or before joining a sports club
What does the pediatric cardiologist treat and monitor?

The pediatric cardiologist at Diagnostic Center “Heart” diagnoses and monitors:

  • Congenital heart defects
  • Physiological and pathological heart murmurs
  • Arrhythmias and rhythm disorders
  • Myocarditis and pericarditis
  • Childhood hypertension
  • Long QT syndrome and other congenital electrical disorders
  • Heart failure
  • Assessment of heart function after severe infections
  • Cardiac adaptation in premature or high-risk newborns
  • Prevention in families with a history of cardiac disease
What to expect during a pediatric cardiology consultation?

The consultation begins with a detailed interview with the parents—it is important to discuss symptoms, family history, and medical background. This is followed by:

  • Measurement of pulse and blood pressure
  • Cardiac auscultation (listening to the heart)
  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) – assessment of rhythm and electrical activity
  • Echocardiography (heart ultrasound) – ultrasound evaluation of cardiac structure and function
  • If needed – referral for additional tests or stress testing

The consultations take place in a calm environment, ensuring maximum comfort for children and clear communication with parents.
