Children with congenital heart defects often face delayed growth and weaker joint and muscle development. Knee and elbow ultrasound provides a detailed analysis of joint structures and functions, enabling tailored care plans to support healthy growth and mobility.

Benefits of Knee and Elbow Ultrasound

  1. Detailed Joint Assessment
    Ultrasound visualizes the structure of the knees and elbows, helping identify issues like inflammation, fluid buildup, or bone abnormalities.
  2. Customized Rehabilitation Plans
    The results guide personalized rehabilitation, including physical therapy or modified exercise routines to suit the child’s specific needs.
  3. Safe and Painless Procedure
    The ultrasound is non-invasive and radiation-free, making it a comfortable and safe option for children of all ages.

Linking Joint Health to Overall Development

Strong and functional joints are essential for daily activities, from play to learning. For children with congenital heart defects, maintaining joint health supports their overall development, improving mobility and quality of life.
