  • Title: Acute myocardial infarction in pregnancy: a case report and subject review.
    Author: Fayomi O, Nazar R.
    Journal: Emerg Med J; 2007 Nov; 24(11):800-1. PubMed ID: 17954849.
    Abstract:
    Myocardial infarction in pregnancy is uncommon. Use of thrombolytic treatment is relatively contraindicated. Early recognition as well as a multidisciplinary approach to the management of these cases is important, as untreated there is a high maternal and fetal mortality. The case presented here highlights the importance of early transfer to a specialist centre for percutaneous coronary intervention.
