Opis

The new edition of this practical guide draws on the clinical skills of a wide range of international experts to help you recognize and manage heart disease in pregnancy. Designed for on-the-spot use, this convenient and concise text helps you identify a cardiac problem, understand its pathophysiology, and respond appropriately. Under the careful editorial direction of Drs. Oakley and Warnes, the Second Edition introduces new contributors from North America and Europe as well as new chapters on:

• pulmonary hypertension
• rheumatic heart disease
• artificial heart valves
• Marfan syndrome
• auto-immune diseases
• hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
• rhythm disorders
• hypertension
• cardiac intervention

The entire book is scrupulously updated to reflect the most current standards of care. The contributors - all recognized leaders in their respective fields - outline the pathway to diagnosis and appropriate management by a multi-disciplinary team. Although heart disease is the leading medical cause of maternal death, clinical trials in this population are few and the evidence base is small. The expert recommendations in Heart Disease in Pregnancy, Second Edition, are a welcome source of information for cardiologists, obstetricians, general practitioners, and all members of the patient care team.
