Background: Cardiac diseases complicate 4% of pregnancies, with a mortality rate between 0 and 15%. Early referral has shown to reduce the risk of maternal major cardiac events (MACEs).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a cohort of pregnant women with heart disease from two referral centers in Mexico City.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the effectiveness of using an intrauterine hydrostatic condom to manage obstetric hemorrhage in patients who didn't respond to medical treatments.
- Conducted in a rural facility between March and August 2015, out of 955 vaginal delivery patients, 40 required this method, with a small success rate of 95% and minimal complications.
- The findings suggest that this method is an effective intervention for controlling postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony, highlighting its potential in emergency situations.
Background: Fetal echocardiography is possible to confirm with great certainty the diagnosis, in utero, Ebstein's anomaly, as well as determine its perinatal prognosis.
Objective: Review the experience of 16 cases diagnosed with Ebstein's anomaly, using fetal echocardiography, analyzing "forecast echocardiographic parameters" set by Pavlova, Huhta and Barre.
Material And Method: retrospective and descriptive analysis.
