In this episode we walk parents through what a heart murmur can mean, when murmurs are innocent, and when further testing is needed — essential information for anyone who’s been told their child has a murmur. Guest Dr. Thomas Chin, MD, director of pediatric cardiology at University of Maryland Golisano Children’s Hospital, explains evaluation steps and common causes. This video covers heart murmurs, pediatric cardiology evaluation, echocardiogram use, and congenital heart defects in clear, parent-friendly terms. Watch for practical guidance on referrals, screening, and follow up.
