Congenital Birth Defects

1 Congenital congenital deficiency Congenital deficiency, congenital abnormality is a term used to describe developmental disorders present at birth. There are many genetic and environmental interactions in the complex transition from fertilized eggs to fully formed people. The developmental stages affecting the interaction affect the type of birth defect. Causes of birth defects can be divided into two types, genetic and environmental. There is also congenital deficiency due to multifactorial inheritance (George, 2007).

Congenital malformation is birth defects at birth such as cleft lip, cleft cleft, Down's syndrome, heart defects. Usually this happens when mothers consume alcohol, but there are also genetic or unknown causes. Congenital malformations have a major impact on infant mortality. Malnutrition and infection are the leading cause of death in least developed countries. In the Caribbean and Latin America, congenital malformations are only 5% of infant deaths in these countries, infants' malnutrition and infectious diseases in the 1980s accounted for 7% to 27%. In more advanced countries such as the United States, infant mortality rates are rising due to congenital malformations. These birth defects are mainly related to the heart and the central nervous system. In the 19th century, the number of infants who died of heart disease decreased.

Congenital disease (also known as birth defect) is a condition that occurs at birth or before birth, regardless of cause. Among these diseases, diseases characterized by structural abnormalities are called "congenital abnormalities" and involve developing fetal defects. Causes and symptoms of birth defects are very different. Substances causing congenital deficiency are called teratogenic substances. Several diseases can be detected prenatally by prenatal diagnosis (screening). (Reference: https: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_disorder)

How does Indian health insurance contribute to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal, specifically Goal 4 (due to congenital disease), to reduce child mortality rate?

The birth of a child is fun. But sometimes even this joy can be hurt by misfortune. Congenital deficiency or congenital deficiency is a nightmare to expect parents. Congenital heart failure points out that there is a cardiac malformation or dysfunction at birth. The original literal meaning is "appear at birth." Congenital heart failure is diagnosed at birth, early in the infant, even before birth. Congenital heart failure is a number of conditions characterized by heart failure or abnormalities at birth. It does not mean heart disease. These abnormalities can affect heart walls, heart valves, blood vessels supplying the heart, or blood flow around the heart.
