Children with atrial septal defect (ASD) 7mm can self-heal.
Generally speaking, if the child is younger than 3 years old, especially in children under 1 and a half years old, when the ASD 7mm usually has a high probability of self-healing, pay attention to regular follow-up and observation, and temporarily do not need special treatment. However, if the child is older than 3 years old, the possibility of self-healing of atrial septal defect 7mm is small, especially in children with repeated respiratory tract infection, congestive heart failure, etc., surgical intervention should be given in time to restore the normal structure of the heart.
