Valvular heart disease in pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Journal of Africa, 2016
Valvular heart disease may be a pre-existing complication of pregnancy or it may be diagnosed for the first time during pregnancy. Accurate diagnosis, tailored therapy and an understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of pregnancy are necessary components of management, best achieved through the use of multidisciplinary clinics.

Right ventricular function parameters in pulmonary hypertension: echocardiography vs. cardiac magnetic resonance

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Right ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of outcome in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is gold standard to assess RV ejection fraction (RVEFCMR), however this is a crude measure.

Higher plasma IL-6 and PTX3 are associated with worse survival in left heart failure with pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesAmerican Heart Journal Plus, 2022
Introduction: Left heart failure (LHF) is commonly complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH), increasing morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of inflammatory proteins in LHF with PH (LHF-PH).

Valvular Heart Disease in Pregnancy

open access: yesCardiology Clinics, 2021
Valvular heart disease (VHD) is generally well tolerated during pregnancy; however, the dramatic changes in hemodynamics that occur during pregnancy can lead to clinical decompensation in high-risk women. Women with VHD considering pregnancy should undergo preconception counseling with a high-risk obstetrician and cardiologist to review the maternal ...

Right ventricular stroke work index by echocardiography in adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background In adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), right ventricular (RV) failure may worsen rapidly, resulting in a poor prognosis. In this population, non-invasive assessment of RV function is challenging.
