Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
RBBB (right bundle branch block) in ASD patient is suggestive of worsening of heart disease.
And ASD size of 4.4 cm is too large.
Better to consult cardiac surgeon and discuss about surgical repair of ASD.
Surgery is the only option for her. She might need valvular replacement also.
So consult cardiac surgeon as soon as possible and discuss all these.
Don't wait at home.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your sister. Thanks
