Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a disease of unknown etiology which affects pregnant females during late pregnancy or during the first 5 months post-partum. The clinical presentation of these patients is similar to that of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Anesthetic management of such cases poses a challenge; due to the increased risk of various perioperative complications. We report the successful anesthetic management of lower segment caesarean section in a patient with PPCM.
围产期心肌病(PPCM)是一种病因不明的疾病,影响妊娠晚期或产后前5个月的孕妇。这些患者的临床表现与扩张型心肌病患者相似。此类病例的麻醉管理具有挑战性,因为围手术期各种并发症的风险增加。我们报告了1例围产期心肌病患者成功实施下段剖宫产术的麻醉管理情况。
