We care for children and young adults who鈥檝e had or currently have cancer.

Your child鈥檚 care depends on their cancer treatment (type and doses), age, related health issues, family history of cardiovascular disease, test results and other factors.

Once we identify the risk, we introduce a healthy lifestyle that includes diet, nutrition and physical activity. 

We offer complete care for kids, such as:

• Total health assessment and heart disease risk identification, including height, weight, body mass index (BMI) and other measurements, blood pressure monitoring and lipid testing (cholesterol and triglycerides)
• Heart imaging and diagnostic tests, like electrocardiogram, echocardiogram (or echo), Holter event monitoring and, as needed, heart CT and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)
• Cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess physical fitness level and cardiovascular reserve (how the heart and lungs respond to increased activity), and a stress echo if needed
• Cardiac rehabilitation and fitness programs that include heart-specific therapies and exercises
• Cancer survivorship programs with our oncology team to address diet and nutrition and mental health for overall wellness 
• Medically supervised weight loss program to help manage weight in a healthy way
• Full range of heart care, if needed, from expert preventive services to cardiac interventional and electrophysiology procedures (using thin tubes, or catheters, threaded through blood vessels) to cardiothoracic surgery and heart transplant (in Delaware)
• Heart failure and cardiomyopathy program including medical management and mechanical circulatory support with ventricular assist devices as a bridge to transplant
• Referral for additional testing and care with 91大神 experts in more than 30 pediatric specialties as needed
• Transition to adult health care, helping young adults take control of their health and move their care to adult providers when it鈥檚 time
