  -Contributed by Prarthna Raheja Millions of poor children in India die every year because they lack quality healthcare, thus suffering from fatal health issues, such as congenital heart defects (CHDs). Genesis Foundation, as a prominent non-governmental agency, is working towards solving the crisis by offering medical treatment to critically ill, poor children. With a donation for heart surgery , you will be able to save lives and bring hope to families who can no longer access quality medical services. The Burden of Congenital Heart Defects in India Congenital heart disease is a very common birth defect in India, found in approximately 200,000 newborns annually . Such defects, such as heart structural malformations, usually require urgent surgical intervention or catheter-based treatment. Failure to treat these in time results in many children living with terrible health conditions or losing their lives. The socioeconomic context aggravates this issue, with families earning les...

The Smallest Baby to be Operated Upon in India for a Heart Disorder

-
Thank God for the Small Miracles! 

Shiv

Seventeen years is how long Lalmati and Mohanlal had waited for a child to be born to them. Their happiness knew no bounds when Lalmati’s pregnancy was confirmed. They couldn’t wait to meet their little bundle of joy, and it seems, neither could he, for their little son, born at 28 weeks, was born 12 weeks premature, in his impatience to cuddle with his loving parents. 


The premature birth itself was a terrifying ordeal for the family, with their tiny baby weighing only a kilogram, and it meant constant vigilance by doctors in the intensive care unit. He was being treated in a level III intensive care unit, under the care of vigilant neonatologists. Over the next 23 days, Shiv, as he was named by his parents, continued to lose weight despite tube feeding and the best of care afforded by the doctors. He was finally diagnosed as having a heart disorder known as patent ductus arteriosus(PDA). PDA occurs when there is an unwanted connection between the two major blood vessels of the heart; the aorta, and the pulmonary artery. Due to this connection, oxygenated blood from the aorta is shunted into the pulmonary artery, depriving the body of oxygen rich blood. Thus often these children face health problems that impede their growth, and in some cases even succumb to further complications. 


What makes this case unique is that, at 900 grams, Shiv happens to be the smallest baby in India to undergo PDA device closure. Thus today, not only is he a miracle for his parents, but also for the medical fraternity in the country. Genesis Foundation, is blessed to have been a part of his record recovery and helping this littlest of hearts find its beat in the world.

We have supported over 1450 critically ill under-privileged children, from families with a monthly income of less than Rs 10,000 ($150) per month
