EISENMENGER SYNDROME IN PREGNANCY- A REVIEW ARTICLE
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Eisenmenger syndrome is very rare in pregnant women. Debates remain concerning the management of Eisenmenger syndrome in this patient population and the prognosis is unclear in terms of maternal and fetoneonatal outcomes. Epidural analgesia is preferred for Cesarean section as it alleviates perioperative pain and reduces the pulmonary and systemic vascular resistances. Maternal mortality in the presence of Eisenmenger syndrome is reported as 30-50% and even up to 65% in those with Cesarean section. The major causes of death could be hypovolemia, thromboembolism and preeclampsia. The purpose of this article is to discuss the debates of Eisenmenger syndrome in pregnancy and the possible resolutions.[1]
