FEATURES OF PREGNANCY AND DELIVERY IN WOMEN WITH UNREPAIRED ATRIAL AND VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECTS
Тоджиева, Нигина
Abstract
Congenital heart defects represent an important problem in modern cardio-obstetric practice, particularly unrepaired atrial and ventricular septal defects, in which the course of pregnancy is determined by the hemodynamic significance of the defect and the functional state of the cardiovascular system. This article summarizes current evidence on pregnancy, delivery, and the early postpartum period in women with unrepaired atrial and ventricular septal defects. Cardiovascular, obstetric, and perinatal complications, the effects of volume overload, pulmonary hypertension, and ventricular dysfunction on pregnancy outcomes, as well as current approaches to delivery management are considered. The available evidence indicates that, in the absence of significant hemodynamic abnormalities, pregnancy outcomes are favorable in most patients; however, these women require individualized risk assessment, dynamic monitoring, and multidisciplinary management.
