Coronary Disease in Pregnancy: Myocardial Infarction and Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection.
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology 2020 December
Pregnancy-related maternal mortality and morbidity rates continue to increase in the United States despite global improvements in maternal outcomes. The unique hemodynamic and physiological changes of pregnancy results in a 3- to 4-fold increased risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) which causes a substantial proportion of all maternal cardiac deaths. In addition to atherosclerosis, pregnancy-associated AMI is commonly caused by nonatherosclerotic etiologies such as spontaneous coronary artery dissection, embolus to the coronary artery, and coronary vasospasm.
