Fetal Cardiology

We provide heart care even before birth with fetal cardiology services for women whose pregnancy is considered to be high risk or for whom concerns were identified by ultrasound.


Heart Disease Evaluation

We evaluate children with symptoms that could indicate heart disease, including murmurs, fainting, palpitations, chest pain, and difficulty with exercise. To learn more about your child’s heart, we administer electrocardiography (EKG), echocardiography, exercise/stress testing, blood work, and other diagnostic tests in our clinic.


Device Management

We monitor and manage children with pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), ventricular assist devices (VADs), and wearable heart and event monitors (for example, 24-hour Holter monitoring).


Sudden Death Review

We can also help provide answers following the unexplained death of a child or young adult. We perform testing to determine whether heart disease contributed to your child’s death and whether the same issue could affect other members of your family.


Ordering Advanced Testing and Procedures

More complex testing and cardiac procedures like catheterization or heart surgery are ordered and scheduled by our providers but are performed at Duke University Hospital.


Heart Surgery and Transplant Evaluations

We provide comprehensive evaluations for pediatric heart surgery and heart transplantation. We also treat the full spectrum of pediatric heart diseases including:

In addition, we provide specialized care for children who have undergone the Fontan procedure -- the final surgery in a series of two or three that aims to repair certain congenital heart defects -- from nutrition to cardiology, hepatology, endocrinology, physical therapy, and beyond.
