2 Pregnancy and Congenital Heart Disease Case Review Heidi M. Connolly, M.D. Professor of Medicine Chair for Education Division of Cardiovascular Diseases Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN

3 Disclosure I have no conflicts of interest to disclose

4 Background 2% of pregnancies involve maternal CV disease Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common form of HD to affect women of childbearing age in North America CV disease does not preclude pregnancy but poses risk to mother and fetus Informed CV evaluation ideal pre-pregnancy

5 Question 1

6 Pregnancy Not Advised (1) Which of the following patients would you advise avoid pregnancy? 1. Bicuspid aortic valve with moderate AS 2. Asymptomatic pt with LVEF 45% 3. Marfan syndrome pt with aorta 46 mm 4. Repaired cyanotic CHD

7 Pregnancy Not Advised Severe pulmonary arterial hypertension Severe obstructive lesions AS, MS, PS, HCM, Coarctation Ventricular dysfunction CHF - NYHA Class III or IV, EF <40% Prior peripartum cardiomyopathy Dilated or unstable aorta Marfan with aorta mm Severe cyanosis

8 Pregnancy Risk Regurgitant valve lesions generally well tolerated Complex lesions assess on case by case basis Risk of inheritance 3-5% with most CHD Genetic disorders

9 Pregnancy Not Advised (1) Which of the following patients would you advise avoid pregnancy? 1. Bicuspid aortic valve with moderate AS 2. Asymptomatic pt with LVEF 45% 3. Marfan syndrome pt with aorta 46 mm 4. Repaired cyanotic CHD

19 Case 3

20 Pregnancy management

21 Management of shunt lesions in pregnancy

22 Pregnancy Case Management (3) 26-Year-Old Female One prior uncomplicated pregnancy Currently 19 weeks pregnant Occasional palpitations Low dose aspirin Murmur on physical exam Echo Secundum ASD, Right heart enlarged No pulmonary hypertension

23 Pregnancy Case Management (3) Management during pregnancy? 1. Surgical intervention 2. Device intervention 3. Observation 4. Warfarin anticoagulation

24 ASD and Pregnancy Unrepaired ASD neonatal risk vs repaired pre-eclampsia risk, SGA births fetal mortality L to R shunt may with CO change during pregnancy, balanced by PVR Paradoxical embolism risk Familial types- consider screening Warnes et al: JACC 2008

25 Evaluation during pregnancy History, exam, ECG, med review Echo and additional imaging +/- Cardiac catheterization Genetics referral/testing Frequency of cardiac follow-up depends on type of CHD

26 Pregnancy Case Management (3) Management during pregnancy? 1. Surgical intervention 2. Device intervention 3. Observation 4. Warfarin anticoagulation

27 Case 4

29 Pregnancy Case Management (4) 30-Year-Old Female Murmur since childhood, no symptoms Presents for pre-pregnancy evaluation Systolic murmur along left sternal border Echo Pulmonic valve stenosis Moderate PS mean gradient 15 mmhg Mild PR Normal right heart size and function

30 Pregnancy Case Management (4) What do you suggest? 1. OK to proceed with pregnancy 2. Balloon pulmonary valve intervention prior to pregnancy 3. Surgical intervention prior to pregnancy 4. Consultation with congenital heart specialist prior to pregnancy

31 Pulmonic Stenosis Pregnancy usually well tolerated unless very severe Percutaneous valvotomy can be performed during pregnancy No maternal CV events >100 preg Outcome Preterm delivery in 14.5% Fetal mortality 0.8% Perinatal mortality 4% Recurrent CHD 3% Noonan s syndrome Drenthen et al: JACC 2007

32 Pregnancy Case Management (4) What do you suggest? 1. OK to proceed with pregnancy 2. Balloon pulmonary valve intervention prior to pregnancy 3. Surgical intervention prior to pregnancy 4. Consultation with congenital heart specialist prior to pregnancy

33 Case 5

34 Genetic/Aortic Disorders

35 Genetic/Aortic Disorders (5) 20-Year-Old Female Pre-pregnancy counseling FH of Marfan, dissection, ectopia lentis Asymptomatic Ao root 41 mm

36 Genetic/Aortic Disorders (5) What would you recommend? 1. OK to proceed with pregnancy 2. Avoid pregnancy 3. Start beta-blocker before pregnancy 4. Start angiotensin receptor blocker before pregnancy

37 Marfan Syndrome Unpredictable maternal risk Dissection, rupture, IE, CHF Risk based on Preexisting medial changes Changes with pregnancy- Physiologic, hormonal Fetal risks- 50% inheritance Autosomal dominant

38 Preconceptual Counseling In addition to routine obstetric screening Detailed CV history, FH, medications and exam Echo aorta and valves Aortic imaging Aorta >45 mm no pregnancy Aorta 40 mm reasonable if low risk Aorta mm individualize Genetics, prenatal diagnosis

39 Pregnancy Management Management in Marfan and other aortic disorders similar During pregnancy Beta-blocker Regular aortic imaging (individualize), Fetal echo Peripartum Facilitated vaginal delivery C-section for aorta > 40 mm or increasing in size Endocarditis prophylaxis Postpartum FU - dissection risk persists Future evaluation of lactation risk

40 Genetic/Aortic Disorders (5) 20-yo Pre-pregnancy counseling FH of Marfan, dissection, ectopia lentis Ao root 41 mm What would you recommend? 1. OK to proceed with pregnancy 2. Avoid pregnancy 3. Start beta-blocker before pregnancy 4. Start angiotensin receptor blocker before pregnancy

41 Anticoagulation for Mechanical Prosthetic Valve Valve in Pregnancy

42 25-Year-Old Female (6) Mechanical St. Jude MVR Seeks prepregnancy counseling Asymptomatic Warfarin 4 mg per day, aspirin 81 mg daily Exam BP 110/60 Normal mechanical S1, no murmur Otherwise normal examination

43 Question (6) Which of following is most appropriate AC regimen for this patient when pregnant? 1. Stop warfarin; start aspirin and clopidogrel 2. Stop warfarin; start weight-based LMWH 3. Stop warfarin; start unfractionated heparin 5000 units subcutaneously twice daily 4. Continue INR adjusted warfarin

44 Anticoagulation in Pregnancy Hematologic changes clotting factor concentration platelet adhesiveness fibrinolysis and protein S activity risk thrombosis and embolism

45 Anticoagulation During Pregnancy Maternal Risks Fetal Risks

46 Warfarin in Pregnancy Low molecular weight crosses placenta Fetal AC effect and duration vs maternal Vit K dependent factors in fetal liver risk of fetal loss, prematurity, stillbirth, fetal IC hemorrhage, retroplacental hemorrhage Embryopathy risk exposure 6-12 weeks Incidence 4-10% Dose related Oakley: Br Heart J, 1995 Vitale: J Am Coll Cardiol, 1999

47 Prosthetic Valves And Pregnancy Fetal complications Warfarin 5 mg 5/33 (15%) No embryopathy Warfarin >5 mg 22/25 (88%) 9% embryopathy Vitale N et al. JACC, 1999

48 UF Heparin in Pregnancy molecular weight does not cross placenta Short half-life variable response risk pt PTT x control, 6 hr Treatment of choice late pregnancy, delivery risk of prosthetic valve thrombosis TE events, maternal and fetal mortality Long-term use osteoporosis ~30%, sterile abscesses, platelets, alopecia

49 LMWH in Pregnancy Does not cross the placenta No teratogenic effects Antithrombotic protection Potential advantages Bioavailability, administration ease osteoporosis and thrombocytopenia Melissari: Thromb & Hemost, 1992

50 LMWH in Pregnancy Weight based LMWH inadequate in pregnancy Measure anti-xa activity Peak (4 hr post) anti-xa level ~1.0 U/mL Anti-Xa adjusted LMWH with ASA vs warfarin PV thrombosis Improved fetal outcomes Barbour L: Am J Obstet Gynecol 2004 McLintock et al: BJOG 2009

51 Pregnant Patient with Mechanical Prosthesis Therapeutic anticoagulation with frequent monitoring (I) Class I Class IIa First trimester Baseline warfarin dose 5 mg/d Continue warfarin with close INR monitoring (IIa) OR Dose-adjusted LMWH 2 /d (target anti-xa level 0.8 U/mL to 1.2 U/mL 4 to 6 h post dose) (IIb) OR Dose-adjusted continuous infusion of UFH (with an aptt at least 2 control) (IIb) Baseline warfarin dose >5 mg/d Dose-adjusted LMWH 2 /d (target anti-xa level 0.8 U/mL to 1.2 U/mL 4 to 6 h post dose (IIa) OR Dose-adjusted continuous infusion of UFH (with an aptt at least 2 control) (IIa) Class IIb First trimester ACC/AHA VHD Guidelines 2014

52 Pregnant Patient with Mechanical Prosthesis Second and third trimesters Class I Warfarin to goal INR plus ASA 75 mg to 100 mg QD (I) Before planned vaginal delivery Discontinue warfarin and doseadjusted continuous infusion of UFH (with an aptt at least 2 control) (I) ACC/AHA VHD Guidelines 2014

53 25-Year-Old with Mechanical MVR Warfarin 4 mg with Therapeutic INR Which of following is most appropriate AC regimen for this patient when pregnant? 1. Stop warfarin; start aspirin and clopidogrel 2. Stop warfarin; start weight-based LMWH 3. Stop warfarin; start unfractionated heparin 5000 units subcutaneously twice daily 4. Continue INR adjusted warfarin

54 AC in Pregnancy for Mechanical Valve AC must be therapeutic Warfarin preferred in 1 st trimester if therapeutic dose is 5 mg UFH is treatment of choice near delivery LMWH can be used but for mechanical valves must be adjusted to anti-xa level

55 Conclusions Women with an MHV have only a 58% chance of experiencing an uncomplicated pregnancy with a live birth. The markedly increased mortality and morbidity warrant extensive prepregnancy counseling and centralization of care.
