The Domino Effect: Spontaneous Abortions As A Sequela Of Eisenmenger Syndrome, Riddhiben Patel, Anas Hamadeh, Laura Montoya, Senthil Thambidorai

North Texas GME Research Forum 2023

Background: Eisenmenger's syndrome (ES) is a congenital cardiac abnormality in which a significant chronic left-to-right shunt results in pulmonary arterial hypertension and a reversal of the shunting direction. A woman with ES should ideally avoid conception given the increased risk of unexpected fetal demise and maternal mortality. Case: We present a case of a 35-year-old female patient G3, P0, at 9 weeks gestation with reported PMHx of erythrocytosis and spontaneous abortions who presented to the hospital with complaints of vaginal bleeding and worsening SOB. She was noted to have a Hct of 70 and a Hb of 23.8, with SaO2 …

Introduction:

Most congenital heart disease [CHD] is diagnosed and treated in early childhood in designated children’s hospitals with parents responsible for decision-making and receipt of information. The adolescent assumes this role in preparation for transition to an adult congenital heart program. We studied the knowledge base of our adolescent CHD patients and their parents.

Methods:

Established patients with CHD, >11 y.o. and their parents, were independently surveyed in the outpatient clinic prior to being seen over a one-year period. Participation was voluntary. Cardiomyopathy, transplant and electrophysiology patients were excluded. Scores were assessed as full, partial or incomplete.

Results:

Most (98% …
