Delivery recommendations Vaginal delivery • Vaginal delivery 1st choice in most patients (Class I) – associated with less change in cardiac output – associated with less blood loss – associated with less infection risk – associated with less risk of venous thrombosis and thrombo-embolism ESC Guidelines, EHJ 2011 Delivery recommendations Caesarean section Roos-Hesselink et al, EHJ 2012 Delivery recommendations Caesarean section • In general, CS is reserved for obstetric indications ! • CS should be considered (Class IIa): – dilatation of ascending aorta >45 mm – severe aortic stenosis – pre-term labour while on oral anticoagulants – Eisenmenger syndrome – Severe heart failure ! • CS may be considered (Class IIb): – Marfan syndrome with aortic diameters 40-45 mm ESC Guidelines, EHJ 2011 Anesthetic management of women with heart disease The Toronto experience • 657 pregnancies (602 NYHA I/II, 55 NYHA III/IV) in 1986-2004 – 0.4% of all deliveries – epidural analgesia: 84% vs 83% – CS 29% vs 31 % • 192 cesarian deliveries, 110 (57%) unplanned) • 82 planned CS deliveries, only 5 for maternal cardiac indications Goldszmidt et al, Int J Cardiol 2010 Optimizing vaginal delivery hemodynamics • • • • • Epidural placed early No supine positioning Local anesthetics without epinephrine Minimize/titrate postpartum Oxytocin administration Aim: to minimize change of cardiac output <10% Arendt KW et al, Expert Rev.
