Abstract

Despite significant strides made in childhood survival during the last 75 years, India bears the largest burden of congenital heart disease (CHD) in the world. The care of a child with CHD requires multidisciplinary collaboration and development of distinct training opportunities in developing countries to ensure outcomes similar to those achieved in high-income countries. We present a commentary on the current state of pediatric cardiac critical care in India and propose pathways to fulfil the unmet needs of Indian children. The aim is to achieve self-reliance in pediatric cardiac services and to move towards optimal outcome and intact survival of children with CHD.

小儿心脏重症监护：先天性心脏病患儿生存链条中的重要一环

尽管在过去的 75 年里，印度在儿童存活率方面取得了长足进步，但印度仍是世界上先天性心脏病（CHD）负担最重的国家。对先天性心脏病患儿的护理需要多学科合作，并在发展中国家提供独特的培训机会，以确保取得与高收入国家类似的成果。我们对印度儿科心脏重症监护的现状进行了评述，并提出了满足印度儿童未满足需求的途径。我们的目标是实现小儿心脏重症服务的自力更生，使患有先天性心脏病的儿童获得最佳治疗效果和完整的存活。
