Abstract


Aortic valvular atresia is a serious birth defect that prevents the left ventricular outflow tract by causing the aortic valve cusps to fuse together. It is frequently found in the spectrum of hypoplastic left heart syndrome and can manifest as subvalvular, valvular, or supravalvular. If treatment is delayed, the disorder can lead to life-threatening consequences. In its most severe form, it is linked to severe hypoplasia or total atresia of the aortic valve. Usually accompanied by cyanotic heart disease symptoms, infants with aortic valvular atresia need to be evaluated quickly, stabilised, and undergo cardiothoracic surgery to improve long-term results and survival.

Participants in this course gain a thorough understanding of the aetiology, clinical presentation, and management strategies of aortic valvular atresia, as well as the ability to recognise the symptoms of cyanotic heart disease and take the necessary diagnostic and therapeutic actions. The training emphasises the value of interprofessional cooperation between neonatologists, cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, nurses, and other medical specialists in order to stabilise afflicted neonates and arrange surgical procedures. This collaboration tackles the intricacies of this serious congenital disorder, guaranteeing prompt care and improving patient outcomes.
