outcomes in women with heart disease
562 women, 599 pregnancies, 13 centres
Review at <28/40, 28-37/40, peripartum,6/52 postpartum, 6/12 post
CHD (445) 74%, acquired (127) 24%, arrhythmia (27) 4%, PHT
(25) 4%
Baseline: 21 (4%) NYHA III, Cy+ 4
13% pregnancies complicated by pulmonary oedema, arrhythmia
or stroke
0% mortality
(Sui et al ; Circulation;104:July 2002)
The 4 predictors of maternal cardiac events are ;
• Prior episode of heart failure, TIA, CVA, or arrhythmia
• NYHA ≥ II or cyanosis
• Left heart obstruction (MVA < 2 cm2, AVA < 1.5 cm2,
Peak LVOTO > 30 mmHg on echo)
• Reduced LV function (EF < 40%)
0 predictors - risk of a cardiac event is 5%
1 predictor - risk of cardiac event 27%
(Sui et al, Circulation;104:July 2002)
> 1- risk of cardiac event is 75%
Obstetric Problems which increase
Maternal risk
> Twins
Pre-eclampsia
Haemorrhage
Premature Labour
Hydramnios
Pre-Pregnancy counselling ;
1. The complexity of the heart lesion
2. Appreciate impact of normal haemodynamic changes on lesion
3. Detailed knowledge of prior surgical correction(s)/interventions
4. Detailed knowledge of residua / sequelae
5. A discussion re ; long-term prognosis & risk of recurrence in
offspring ? 22q11
6. Optimisation of clinical status including drugs
7. Knowledge of other co-morbid medical problems
Pre - Pregnancy work-up
�Clinical review and examination
�Up to date TTE / stress echo
�ETT or CPEX
�Optimise and change Meds
�Communicate with obstetric team & local cardiologist
�Plan place & frequency of reviews
• Obstetric unit or cardiac unit
• Early or term
• Vaginal delivery v’s C-section
• Epidural / Spinal/ Natural
• Haemodynamic monitoring - invasive / non-invasive
• CVS drugs
• Endocarditis prophylaxis
• Duration of monitoring / observation post-partum
Labour & delivery planning
“If single do not allow marriage,
If fertile do not allow pregnancy
If pregnant do not allow delivery(!?)
If delivered do not allow breast feeding”
