A small number of babies may develop congenital heart diseases such as single atrium or single ventricle due to incomplete congenital development at birth. And the baby may have obvious symptoms, such as tachycardia or slow growth after birth. So how long can a baby live with a single atrium?
For normal people, there are usually two atria, but if a baby is diagnosed with a single atrium after birth. If left untreated, the baby may only live for a few months at most. However, if surgical treatment is taken in a timely manner and maintained for a long time, life may be extended, and this situation varies from person to person. Depending on each person's own physical condition, the survival time can range from a few months to several years.
If a baby is diagnosed with monoatrial congenital heart disease after birth, even if surgery is taken for treatment in a timely manner, it will still affect the baby's later growth and life, and various abilities will be lower than those of normal children. As for how long one can live, it cannot be accurately estimated. Various illnesses are divided into two types: curable and incurable, and the specific situation also needs to be judged based on individual physical condition and the severity of the illness.
And congenital heart disease with a single atrium in infants is a relatively serious cardiac malformation that is difficult to cure. Even with surgical treatment, this process is quite difficult. So pregnant mothers must undergo regular prenatal check ups and pay more attention to their personal diet and lifestyle habits to ensure that their babies can be born healthy.
