- Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare pregnant women with and without cardiac disease and evaluate maternal and fetal outcomes. Methods: Fifty-four women with heart disease and fifty-seven healthy pregnant women were evaluated. Age of the patients, previous pregnancies, parity, present cardiac pathology and stage, present symptoms, type of labor, gestational week during labor, birth weight, APGAR scores were examined. All collected data was analyzed in the form of percentages (relative frequencies) and the mean ± Standard Deviation of variables. Results: Forty-one cases delivered vaginally while thirteen cases underwent cesarean section in cardiac disease group. Induction of labor was applied ten cases. Mean birth weight was 3037 ± 540 (1500-4500) g. In healthy group forty women delivered vaginally and in eighteen women labour started by induction. Seventeen cases were delivered by cesarean section. Mean birth weight was 3250± 626 (1800-4300) g. There was no difference between groups in terms of types of labor and birth weights. In cardiac disease group seven women had obstetric and one woman had medical complications. No maternal mortality was occurred. Obstetric complications included, six preterm labor, one premature rupture of membranes. Medical complication encountered was one cases of cardiac failure. In healthy group there was no medical complication. Two had preterm labour, one had in utero exitus and one perinatal death due to meconium aspiration. Preterm labor was seen significantly higher in cardiac disease group. There was no any significant difference between groups in terms of fetal and neonatal mortality. Conclusion: With careful follow-up maternal and fetal outcomes are not different in pregnant women with cardiac disease from healthy women.
