Dr. Smita Mishra, Paediatric Cardiologist, Associate Director - Jaypee Hospital, will talk on what can be done if a TGA baby is born in a remote area in this video. In such situations, prostaglandins are the best treatment option. A new born center should be provided with prostaglandin injection. They should be given in an infusion form and should be transferred to tertiary care center after the injection has been started. These injections are life saving for these babies.
