  • Title: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in pregnancy. The use of two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography during labor and delivery: a case report.
    Author: Wilansky S, Belcik T, Osborn R, Carpenter R.
    Journal: J Heart Valve Dis; 1998 May; 7(3):355-7. PubMed ID: 9651852.
    Abstract:
    Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in pregnancy can result in a high incidence of maternal complications. Although echocardiography is frequently performed in pregnant women with HCM in order to confirm their hemodynamic classification, this modality has not been applied during labor and delivery in these patients. This case report documents the application of two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography during labor and delivery in a 35-year-old woman with HCM.
