Article Synopsis
- - Venous thromboembolism (VTE) significantly contributes to maternal mortality, with pregnant and postpartum women at about five times greater risk than non-pregnant women due to increased clotting tendencies during this period.
- - Various non-obstetric risk factors can further elevate the likelihood of VTE, making it essential to distinguish symptoms since they may resemble normal pregnancy signs.
- - Diagnosis relies on tools like D-dimer testing, ultrasonography, and CT pulmonary angiography, while treatment primarily involves anticoagulation with heparin, though advanced therapies are available for high-risk cases.
Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a leading cause of mortality. Not only is PE associated with short-term mortality, but up to ~20% of patients might suffer from long-term consequences such as post-PE syndrome and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Current risk stratification tools poorly predict those who are at risk for short-term deterioration and those who develop long-term consequences.
