How do i know if a baby has a hole in the heart?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to MD: Your local pediatrician is often the first person to detect a "hole in the heart". This can be done with the use of a stethoscope. If there is any doubt an simple ultrasound of the heart can usually detect a problem. First step is talk to your pediatrician.
