Caring for children and mothers suffering from cardiac disease is highly challenging, with issues including late diagnosis as well as inadequate infrastructure and supply of drugs. We aimed to evaluate maternal outcomes among pregnant women suffering from heart disease with a live birth, and explored the risk factors for fetal growth restriction among these patients. A retrospective study was performed at the National Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Hanoi, Vietnam) over a 3-year period from 2014 to 2016. A total of 284 patients were enrolled in the study. Overall, most women were aged below 35 years and were diagnosed with heart disease before pregnancy. Of the women experiencing rheumatic heart disease, the prevalence of mitral valve regurgitation was the highest (40.14%), while the figure for aortic valve regurgitation was the lowest (4.23%). Of women with congenital heart defects, the most common defects were ventricular septal defect (VSD) and atrial septal defect (ASD) (19.37% and 16.55%, respectively), while 5.28% of mothers were diagnosed with tetralogy of Fallot and 1.76% with patent ductus arteriosus. Noted clinical presentations of the patients included palpitation (63.38%), breathlessness (23.59%), leg edema (8.45%), and chest pain (8.1%). The common complications in the study population included 16.90% of women having heart failure and 19.37% having arrhythmias. The incidence of fetal growth restriction was 9.15%. Hypertension (odds ratio (OR): 59.75, 95% confidence interval (CI): 9.1–392.17), the heart disease types (ASD (OR: 4.27, 95% CI: 1.19–15.29) and tetralogy of Fallot (OR: 6.82, 95% CI: 1.21–38.55)), and the complications (heart failure (OR: 10.34, 95% CI: 2.75–38.87) and pulmonary edema (OR: 107.16, 95% CI: 4.96–2313.93)) were observed as risk factors for intrauterine growth restriction. This study provides a cornerstone to promote further studies and to motivate people to apply evidence-based medical care for mothers with diagnosed cardiac disease in the antenatal and postnatal periods.

Cardiovascular disease in pregnancy remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In the developed world, congenital heart disease remains the most frequently encountered presentation, and in the developing world, it is rheumatic heart disease. However, with ageing of the maternal population and cardiovascular risk factors, women are presenting with familiar cardiac conditions such as heart failure. Pre-pregnancy counselling and appropriate and timely management lead to an optimal outcome for the mother and baby. This chapter describes the physiology and provides up-to-date guidance on drug therapy of cardiovascular disease in pregnancy.

Objective of the study: Comprehensive assessment of risk factors, the implementation of which leads to FGR with early and late manifestation. To evaluate the results of the first prenatal screening: PAPP-A, B-hCG, made at 11-13 weeks. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study included 110 pregnant women. There were 48 pregnant women with early manifestation of fetal growth restriction, 62 pregnant women with late manifestation among them. Results of the study: The risk factors for the formation of the FGR are established. Statistically significant differences in the indicators between groups were not established in the analyses of structures of extragenital pathology. According to I prenatal screening, there were no statistical differences in levels (PAPP-A, b-hCG) in the early and late form of FGR.

Literature reports of placental mosaicism, including trisomy 22, were analyzed. The chance of correlation of placental aneuploidy with fetus aneuploidy, also the probability of complications in pregnancy and fetal growth restriction and postnatal patients growth in the cases of confined placental mosaicism, were demonstrated. The case of prenatal diagnosis of confined placental mosaicism of trisomy 22 with favorable outcome is presented. The necessity of cytogenic assay of amniocytes and fetal lymphocytes in the case of placental heteroploidy diagnosis was emphasized.

Background: Adults with congenital heart disease are a growing population. We describe surgical interventions, short- and long-term mortality and morbidity, and risk factors for adverse events in a population-based cohort. Methods: Patients over or equal to 18 years with congenital heart disease who underwent cardiac surgery at Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, from 1994 to 2012 were included in the study. Diagnoses, surgical procedures, postoperative complications, and survival were identified in hospital databases, medical records, and the Danish Civil Registration System. Results: Four hundred seventy-four surgeries were performed in 445 adults (50% men). The median age was 39 years (range 18-83). Thirty-nine percent had previous surgical or catheter-based interventions. Thirty-day and in-hospital mortality were 1.1%. Postoperative complications occurred in 50% of cases, most were minor such as temporary arrhythmias and pneumonia. Major complications included postoperative bleeding necessitating intervention (6%), stroke (2%), and acute temporary renal failure (1%). Multivariate analysis identified RACHS-1 categories over or equal to 3 compared to category 1 (odds ratio (OR) = 2.3; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.5-3.7), New York Heart Association functional class III and IV compared to class I (OR = 2.2; 95% CI: 1.3-3.7) and age at surgery (OR = 1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.04), as risk factors for adverse events. Survival during a median follow-up of 7.8 years (range 0 days-21.4 years) was 85% (95% CI: 80%-89%). Conclusion: Adults with congenital heart disease constitute a growing population with the need for cardiac surgery. Postoperative complications are frequent but early and late mortality are low.
