Congenital heart disease in pregnancy
Cardiol Clin.
2012 Aug.
Abstract
Heart disease is a main cause of maternal mortality in the United States and the United Kingdom. Most deaths are from acquired conditions. However, due to the increased survival of children born with congenital heart disease (CHD) over the past 30 years, the population of adults with congenital heart disease in the U.S. now exceeds 1 million. Thus, there are now more adults with CHD than children with CHD. Many of these adult survivors of pediatric heart disease are of childbearing age and are considering pregnancy. This article reviews the literature concerning pregnancy and CHD.
