  • What causes atrial septal defect?

    During Development the walls the atrium grow in stages, part of this is to allow oxygenated blood from mom to bypass the lungs of the fetus which cannot work until delivery and the baby inhales air. There are different patterns of failure of the system to grow and then close correctly. Small defects or holes take longer to cause symptoms and thus adults usually have smaller defects. READ MORE

If it was from heart attacks, then the goal is to identify why they had heart attacks and focus on them, i.e., smoking, familial hypercholesterolemia, etc. READ MORE
