No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Heart disease among pregnant women is increasing in incidence. The cardiovascular changes associated with pregnancy may be particularly hazardous for both mother and fetus in a subset of these patients. The period of greatest risk is peripartum while these patients are under the care of the obstetrician and anesthesiologist. We will evaluate the anesthetic management of all women with heart disease whose pregnancies were followed at the University Health Network and/or Mount Sinai Hospital between 1986 and 2001.
