Abstract

Meeting abstractsEMPTY Summary To examine the association between aortic dimensions on cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and risk of adverse events related to pregnancy in women with coarctation of the aorta (CoA). Cardiovascular events (hypertension, sustained arrhythmia, heart failure, stroke, cardiac arrest, and/or need for an urgent cardiac procedure), obstetric complications (eclampsia, pre-term labour, post-partum hemorrhage) and fetal/neonatal events (still birth, prematurity, low birthweight, respiratory distress syndrome, intraventricular hemorrhage, death) were recorded.
