I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

I'm really confused about my ECG results. It said there was a downslope in the ST segment and T wave inversion, and they mentioned something about infero-lateral ischaemia. When I went for a pre-employment medical exam, I had an echocardiogram and a color Doppler test, and the doctor said not to worry but didn't prescribe any medication. I'm not sure what to do next. Is there actually ischaemia, or is everything okay?

the ST segment downslope and T wave inversion indicate infero lateral Ischaemia. Since you have already undergone an ECHOCARDIOGRAM and color Doppler test, and the doctor mentioned that there is nothing to worry about, it is likely that the Ischaemia is not severe and does not require immediate medication. However, it is important to follow up with regular check-ups to monitor your heart health. If you experience any symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried and need some guidance. I know someone who's a 20-year-old female, not married, and she has 50 percent artery blockage. She's also experiencing breathlessness and chest pain when she's physically active. She doesn't have diabetes or hypertension, so we're confused about whether she needs stenting or not. What would you suggest?

A person with 50 percent artery blockage who is experiencing breathlessness and chest pain during physical activity may benefit from stenting. For this individual, I recommend considering the use of aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. However, the final decision on stenting should be made after consulting with a cardiologist. It's important to also make lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and avoiding smoking to improve heart health."
