During the early stages of formation of heart in children, the natural process may get disturbed in some children due to various factors that may be genetic or environmental. Unfortunately, we do not have much control over these factors. These factors can interact to alter the development of the heart during the early stages and hence may cause a defect in the heart of the child. This type of heart defect that is present since the time of birth is known as Congenital Heart Defect (CHD).Many of such defects may either obstruct blood flow in the heart or may cause blood to flow in an abnormal pattern through the heart.
