An excellent reminder of the critical role of early counselling, multidisciplinary collaboration, and personalised care to optimise outcomes for mothers and babies.
Thanks again to all the speakers who made it such an insightful, inspiring day.
Interactive case-based sessions in the afternoon highlighted real-world scenarios such as pulmonary hypertension, Fontan circulation, aortic stenosis, and mechanical valve management in pregnancy.
Such a wealth of knowledge imparted from leaders in the field including pre-conception counselling, fertility and pregnancy planning, miscarriage and termination considerations, and multidisciplinary antenatal management for complex maternal cardiac conditions.
What an excellent, engaging joint conference with the British Congenital Cardiac Association (BCCA). “Pregnancy: a Bumpy road” focused on the challenges of managing pregnancy in women with cardiac disease.
