Hemodynamics was studied in different trimesters of pregnancy in 94 women with mitral stenosis and in 32 healthy women with pregnancy following a normal course. Each trimester in women with mitral stenosis was marked by different changes in hemodynamics. Study of the state of hemodynamics allows preclinical signs of cardiac insufficiency to be already detected in the early periods. This makes it possible to assess the risk of pregnancy and delivery in women with mitral stenosis at the right time and more correctly. The disclosure of unfavourable signs of changes in hemodynamics in conjunction with the clinical signs of cardiac insufficiency aids in the choice of the therapeutic and obstetrical tactics.
