ABSTRACT
Peripartum cardiomyopathy is a rare and unpredictable pregnancy-related pathology. Idiopathic cardiomyopathy is characterized by a heart failure secondary to left ventricular systolic dysfunction appearing towards the end of pregnancy or in the months following delivery with a non-specific clinic presentation. Through reviewing previous research, our critical literature review wishes to bring a concise and objective summarize for a better understanding of physiopathology, evocative symptoms and knowing of factors influencing prognosis in order to standardize peripartum management. The treatment remains mainly symptomatic but other promising treatments are still in development. In conclusion, early detection and treatment allow a better cardiac function recovery reducing cardiac transplantation.

Con la llegada de los avances tecnológicos a la valoración de la audición en los recién nacidos, ha sido posible la implantación del cribaje auditivo universal. Pero uno de los mayores problemas de estos programas es el pobre seguimiento de los niños que fallan el test inicial del cribado. Nosotros apreciamos una ventaja si se realiza el test y retest a los neonatos antes de que abandonen el hospital (AU)
