The new edition of this practical guide draws on the clinical skills of a wide range of international experts to help you recognize and manage heart disease in pregnancy. Designed for on-the-spot use, this convenient and concise text helps you identify a cardiac problem, understand its pathophysiology, and respond appropriately. Under the careful editorial direction of Drs. Oakley and Warnes, the Second Edition introduces new contributors from North America and Europe as well as new chapters on: * pulmonary hypertension * rheumatic heart disease * artificial heart valves * Marfan syndrome * auto-immune diseases * hypertrophic cardiomyopathy * rhythm disorders * hypertension * cardiac intervention The entire book is scrupulously updated to reflect the most current standards of care. The contributors - all recognized leaders in their respective fields - outline the pathway to diagnosis and appropriate management by a multi-disciplinary team. Although heart disease is the leading medical cause of maternal death, clinical trials in this population are few and the evidence base is small.
The expert recommendations in Heart Disease in Pregnancy, Second Edition, are a welcome source of information for cardiologists, obstetricians, general practitioners, and all members of the patient care team.

Dr. Jian-Fang Ren is a Senior Research Investigator in the experimental and clinical electrophysiology laboratories at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. He has been a pioneer in using intracardiac ultrasound imaging for electrophysiologic applications. He has authored or co-authored over one hundred original manuscripts including seminal publications related to the use of intracardiac ultrasound imaging technology and catheter ablation of inappropriate sinus tachycardia and atrial fibrillation. He has mentored over fifty trainees on the use of intracardiac echo and has lectured internationally on the subject matter. Dr. Francis Marchlinski is a Professor of Medicine and Director of Electrophysiology for the University of Pennsylvania Health System. He has been actively involved in cardiac Electrophysiology investigation and training for over twenty-five years. He has authored numerous articles on the utility of a variety of imaging techniques for facilitating electrophysiologic mapping and ablation. Dr. David Callans is a Professor of Medicine and Director of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Laboratory at the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania. He has been a pioneer in the use of intracardiac echocardiography in cardiac electrophysiology. He has authored a number of original publications and reviews, lectured and has organized training sessions for electrophysiologists on the use of intracardiac echo. Dr. David Schwartzman is a Associate Professor of Medicine and Director of the Atrial Fibrillation Center at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. He has been actively involved in the development of intracardiac echo imaging in cardiac electrophysiology and has continued to published original manuscripts and well-respected, state-of-the-art reviews on the subject.
