Interpretation of "ACOG Practice Bulletin of Pregnancy and Heart Disease (2019)" / 中华围产医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Maternal heart disease has emerged as one of the major diseases threatening pregnant women's safety and long-term cardiovascular health. It is worth noting that there is a large gap in pregnancy prognosis with various cardiovascular diseases. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) has published a practice bulletin named "Pregnancy and Heart Disease" in April 2019, which addressed the prevalence, risk factors, and heart disease effects on pregnancy and the puerperium. It outlined the common types and tiered care recommendations for cardiovascular diseases during pregnancy and puerperium.
