Cardiac disease is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality. Catastrophic outcomes typically encountered are due to gaps in knowledge and communication between health care providers. There is a great need for a standardized approach for care of this very high-risk group of pregnant women.
The book encompasses detailed obstetrics and cardiology perspectives that are crucial in the management of the commonly encountered cardiac conditions in pregnancy. This text aims to provide guidance to the whole team caring for a pregnant cardiac patient consisting of obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine, hospitalists, cardiologists, obstetric anaesthesiologists, emergency physicians, primary care providers and nurses.
Features:
Cardio-Obstetric team organization
Preconception counselling and family planning considerations
Cardiovascular disease screening and risk stratification of a pregnant cardiac patient
Management of a wide spectrum of cardiovascular diagnoses through use of checklists and algorithms in a simple format
Essential key points for each cardiac diagnosis
Recenzijas
This book is most appropriate for general obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine physicians, and cardiologists interested in pregnancy care. This is certainly a book that many obstetricians and maternal-fetal medicine providers, including me, will be adding to their collection.
