Key result
Multidisciplinary management of PAH in pregnancy is linked to 100% maternal survival.
Why the study?
Despite high pregnancy-associated maternal mortality and guidelines advising against pregnancy, more young women with well-controlled PAH choose to pursue pregnancy.
Does a multidisciplinary standardized management approach improve maternal and offspring outcomes in women with pulmonary arterial hypertension who become pregnant?
Observational (n=16)
No

May support multidisciplinary PAH pregnancy care; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Kamp et al. (2020) conducted an observational in Pulmonary arterial hypertension (n=16). Multidisciplinary standardized management of pregnancy was evaluated on Maternal and neonatal outcomes. Multidisciplinary management of 25 pregnancies in 16 women with pulmonary arterial hypertension resulted in 17 successful pregnancies with 18 healthy newborns and survival of all delivering mothers.
