Mitral Stenosis and Pregnancy: Multidisciplinary Approach
Abstract: The incidence of rheumatic mitral stenosis is grossly reduced in India. Still, among heart disease complicating pregnancy, rheumatic mitral stenosis occupies a greater segment. The unique physiological changes in pregnancy and the pathological impact of mitral stenosis over pregnancy and labour are discussed in detail. A multidisciplinary approach in the diagnosis and management reduces the mortality and morbidity during peripartum. The labour analgesia technique and the evidence-based regional and general anaesthesia techniques are discussed at length in this article.
