Abstract
Bakground/Aims: This single-center, cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the prevalence and patterns of cardiovascular symptoms and findings among pediatric patients aged 1-18 years, focusing on age and gender as potential influencing factors.
Methods: Pediatric patients aged 1-18 with cardiovascular symptoms were studied, categorized by age (1-6, 7-12, 13-18) and gender (male and female) using electronic medical records, undergoing comprehensive clinical assessments including examinations, ECGs, and echocardiograms. Statistical analyses unveiled prevalence trends.
Results: 720 patients were included the study and 53.9% of them were female. The prevalence of symptoms and diseases varied by age. Chest pain was common in 13-18 group; murmurs linked to congenital defects in 1-6 group. Valve and pericardial/myocardial diseases in 7-12 group, tied to rheumatic risks. Gender had minimal impact on patterns.
Conclusion: The study underscores tailored management, age-specific considerations, and gender's minor role in pediatric cardiovascular symptoms and diseases.
