Diagnostic Pathway for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy and the Need for Cardio-Obstetrics Follow-Up The figure illustrates the diagnostic pathway for peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) based on the ESC working group's recommendations. It prompts the exploration of potentially new phenotypes of peripartum heart failure and the importance of follow-up visits for patients who display elevated natriuretic peptides alongside preserved ejection fraction. This underscores the need for further research and the development of clearer recommendations to address these aspects. Adapted from Bauersachs et al. Eur J Heart Fail. 2019;21(7):827-843.
