The Department of Pediatric Cardiac Sciences at Yashoda Medicity and Yashoda Super Speciality Hospital, Kaushambi offers comprehensive care for children with heart diseases, from prenatal diagnosis to adulthood follow-up. Pediatric cardiology focuses on understanding the anatomy and function of the normal heart, as well as detecting and treating abnormalities that develop before or after birth.
With congenital heart disease affecting 8–10 per 1,000 live births and 30–50% of these requiring intervention within the first year, our department addresses an urgent need for quality, affordable, and accessible care.
Our multidisciplinary team, comprising pediatric cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and critical care specialists, works in harmony to provide seamless preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care. Leveraging medical, surgical, and non-surgical (percutaneous) interventions, we aim to ensure that children with heart disease not only survive but thrive, with 75% of children with critical heart disease now able to live healthy lives thanks to modern advances.
Our paediatric cardiology unit provides comprehensive care for children with heart conditions, beginning as early as the fetal stage and continuing into adulthood. The team manages the full spectrum of congenital heart diseases as well as acquired conditions such as rheumatic heart disease, Kawasaki disease, MIS-C, Marfan syndrome and Long QT syndrome.
Deliver the highest standard of medical care for children with congenital and acquired heart problems.
Offer guidance and emotional support to families, helping them understand their child’s condition and treatment journey.
Work closely with community physicians to promote heart health and well-being in children.
Our diagnostic facilities are designed to provide accurate assessment across all age groups.
Echocardiography Laboratory
The echocardiography laboratory evaluates patients ranging from the fetus to the adult with congenital heart disease, providing high quality diagnostic services in a patient-friendly environment.
Transthoracic echocardiography
Transesophageal echocardiography
Intraoperative echocardiography (epicardial and transesophageal) to support surgical procedures
Advanced Imaging
3D echocardiography
Multi-slice CT scan
Cardiac MRI
Fetal Echocardiography and Prenatal Counselling
A detailed ultrasound of the fetal heart, usually done between 18–22 weeks of pregnancy, helps detect structural or rhythm abnormalities early. This enables counselling for parents, planning of delivery at the right centre, and immediate treatment if required.
Cardiac Catheterization
Diagnostic procedures including angiography for detailed heart evaluation
Interventional procedures that avoid open-heart surgery in selected cases:
Closure of atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), coronary artery fistula, pulmonary AV malformation and aortopulmonary collaterals
Balloon dilatation for aortic, pulmonary and mitral valves, coarctation of aorta, and pulmonary artery narrowing
Balloon atrial septostomy in newborns with specific defects
Stenting procedures such as ductal stenting in neonates, coarctation and pulmonary artery stenting
Fetal cardiac unit:
Prenatal diagnosis and counseling of pregnant mothers with suspected heart defects in the fetus, prenatal treatment for fetuses with cardiac rhythm disorders.
A full spectrum of paediatric cardiac surgeries is offered, ranging from corrective to palliative procedures.
Open-heart procedures
Closure of shunt lesions such as ASD, VSD and AVSD
Repair of cyanotic heart diseases including Tetralogy of Fallot, Double Outlet Right Ventricle (DORV), and TAPVC
Complex arterial switch and double switch operations, Senning and Rastelli procedures
Valve repair and replacement for congenital and acquired diseases
Specialised surgeries such as ALCAPA repair, single-ventricle palliation (Glenn and Fontan), conduit repairs and redo surgeries
Surgery for Ebstein’s anomaly
Closed-heart procedures
PDA ligation
Repair of coarctation of aorta
Pulmonary artery (PA) banding
BT shunt and vascular ring division
Repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia
The PCICU is located next to the operating theatres for smooth patient transfer and immediate support.
Equipped with advanced ventilators, monitoring systems and life-support technology
Staffed by a dedicated team trained in managing complex paediatric heart cases, from neonates to young adults
Provides stabilisation before surgery, post-operative care, and advanced support for critically ill children transferred from other hospitals
Adults with CHD:
Adults with unrepaired CHD
Adult with repaired congenital heart disease
The most rapidly growing population of patients with congenital heart disease is the adult with repaired congenital heart disease. We provide coordinated and comprehensive care for such patients.
Congenital heart defects (ASD, VSD, PDA, AVSD, Tetralogy of Fallot, TAPVC, DORV, single ventricle physiology)
Acquired heart diseases (rheumatic heart disease, Kawasaki disease, MIS-C)
Cardiomyopathies and genetic syndromes (Marfan syndrome, Long QT syndrome)
Valve disorders (stenosis, regurgitation)
Complex and rare cardiac anomalies (Ebstein’s anomaly, ALCAPA)
Fetal heart rhythm abnormalities detected in utero
State-of-the-art echocardiography lab with transthoracic, transesophageal, and intraoperative imaging
Advanced imaging with 3D echo, cardiac MRI, and multi-slice CT scan
Modern cardiac catheterization lab for diagnostic and interventional procedures
Fetal cardiac unit with detailed fetal echocardiograms between 18–22 weeks for early detection and planning
Pediatric Cardiac ICU with cutting-edge monitoring and life-support systems
Senior Consultant, Pediatric and Adult Congenital Cardiologist
Senior Consultant - Pediatric Cardio- thoracic and Vascular Surery
A tremendous job has been done by Dr. Amit Sharma. I met with an accident in which the ACL ligament of my left knee was completely torn. I met Dr. Amit Sharma then he analysed the situation and told us about the procedure and the time period to recover from the injury. He has performed a successful surgery. The good thing is the confidence that Dr. Amit Sharma has on his surgery that he didn’t put braces on the knee while other doctors put the braces on for a month and then started Physiotherapy which will take a longer time period to heal from the injury. Dr. Amit Sharma has started the Physiotherapy from the very next day of the...

Dr. Amit Sharma has started the Physiotherapy from the very next day of the surgery and i was discharged in 2 days, and the Physiotherapy is undergoing at my home. It's the 10th day today and I have gained so much confidence in 10 days that I am recovering very fast and in a few weeks I will be able to walk without any support.
Thanks to Dr. Amit Sharma, he is really having magical hands, he is very kind in nature, in my regular visits all of my stress went away after talking to him.
Again Thank You so much Doctor

A young female was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness, loss of appetite, and intermittent vomiting. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with urea of 200 mg/dl, creatinine of 8 mg/dl, and haemoglobin of 9 g/dl. She was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of her neck and was advised AV fistula creation along with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week. She consulted our expert team of doctors, Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Vaibhav Saxena, and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal, at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospital, Kaushambi. They recommended renal transplantation as ...
A young female was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness, loss of appetite, and intermittent vomiting. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with urea of 200 mg/dl, creatinine of 8 mg/dl, and haemoglobin of 9 g/dl. She was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of her neck and was advised AV fistula creation along with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.
She consulted our expert team of doctors, Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Vaibhav Saxena, and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal, at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospital, Kaushambi. They recommended renal transplantation as the best form of renal replacement therapy. Her transplant workup was initiated, and her mother, who had a matching blood group, was identified as the donor.
After obtaining clearance from cardiology, pulmonology, gynaecology, and psychiatry, as well as approval from the authorisation committee, she successfully underwent renal transplantation with ATG induction. Post-transplant, she maintained good urine output with steadily decreasing creatinine levels and was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl.
She continues to do well on outpatient follow-up, two years after her transplant, with stable graft function.
