        About the Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Pulmonology, Allergology and Gastroenterology at University Hospital Halle (Saale)

        The Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Pulmonology, Allergology and Gastroenterology at the University Hospital Halle (Saale) offers a full range of medical services in its areas of specialization. The department provides medical care for newborns, young children, and adolescents with diseases of the cardiovascular system, lungs and airways, allergic diseases, and gastrointestinal pathologies. The medical facility has an advanced diagnostic base for comprehensive examinations. The department's specialists have exceptional experience and knowledge necessary for comprehensive and effective treatment of young patients. Children can receive both inpatient and outpatient medical care in the department. During the therapeutic process, reliable methods with proven effectiveness are used. If clinically indicated, endoscopic examinations and treatment procedures can be performed. Before starting the treatment, the doctors conduct an individual consultation with the child and the parents, during which they explain in detail the features of the course of therapy and the expected results. The department's medical team works in strict accordance with current clinical protocols and the recommendations of the German Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine (DGKJ). The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Roland Haase.

        Cardiology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of congenital and acquired, acute and chronic diseases of the heart and blood vessels in newborns, children, and adolescents. The department's physicians work closely with specialists in internal medicine, radiology, genetics, cardiac surgery, etc. Adults with congenital heart defects are treated in a specialized center that is part of the department. The physicians in the department often see young patients with atrial septal defects, atrioventricular canal defects, patent foramen ovale, coarctation of the aorta, congenital mitral valve defects, Ebstein's anomaly, Kawasaki disease, tetralogy of Fallot, and transposition of the great vessels. When a heart defect is suspected, laboratory tests, chest X-ray, electrocardiography, echocardiography, and cardiac catheterization are performed. As for the treatment, drug therapy is used whenever possible, which may include the use of ACE inhibitors, diuretics, beta blockers, and other medications. The second-line treatment includes catheter-based interventional procedures, while in complex clinical situations surgical intervention is recommended.

        The team of pediatric pulmonologists treats infants, children, and adolescents with congenital and acquired, acute and chronic diseases of the airways and lungs. To assess the anatomical structure and function of the respiratory system, the department performs spirometry, body plethysmography, rigid and flexible bronchoscopy, and other examinations. Special attention is paid to early diagnosis and treatment of cystic fibrosis. This disease is very common. Although it is caused by a defect in a single gene, the clinical manifestations are quite diverse, causing damage to the airways, lungs, and digestive tract. Cystic fibrosis is incurable, so therapeutic efforts are aimed at improving the child's quality of life. The specialized Center for Cystic Fibrosis, which is part of the department, currently cares for about 50 children and 50 adults with this pathology.

        An important ​​clinical focus of the department is pediatric allergology. The medical facility diagnoses and treats various allergic diseases, such as allergic bronchial asthma, food allergies, drug allergies, allergic rhinitis, etc. Various effective methods are used to treat allergic reactions in children, including inhalations and allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT).

        The department's therapeutic offer is complemented by a wide range of services in pediatric gastroenterology. The team of doctors in this field specializes in providing medical care to young patients with celiac disease, gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, chronic constipation, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, and liver pathologies. The department's pediatric gastroenterologists successfully perform endoscopic examinations and therapeutic procedures, the most popular of which are gastroscopy, colonoscopy, polypectomy, bougienage, and endoscopic removal of foreign bodies from the digestive organs.
