Investigators from Northwestern University Zero in on Cardiac Arrhythmias (Peripartum Management of Cardiac Arrhythmias: a Narrative Review).

Researchers from Northwestern University have conducted a study on the management of cardiac arrhythmias during pregnancy, highlighting the increasing incidence of arrhythmias among pregnant individuals. The study focuses on common arrhythmias, risk factors, diagnosis, and management strategies, as well as recommendations for peripartum monitoring and labor analgesia. Additionally, the research reviews the management of cardioversion, pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, and advanced cardiac life support in the context of pregnancy. This peer-reviewed study provides valuable insights for anesthesiologists caring for obstetric patients. [Extracted from the article]
