Prophylaxis of thrombotic complications in a pregnant patients with prosthetic heart valves
In patients with prosthetic heart valves pregnancy and labor are associated with high risk. There are no established anticoagulation guidelines in pregnant women with mechanical heart valve prostheses. More often physiological hypercoagulable state during pregnancy can reveal acquired and/or inherited hemostasis abnormalities which were asymptotic before pregnancy. The presence in the history of patients the foetal loss syndrome, severe obstetric complications (severe preeclampsia, abruptio placenta, antenatal fetal death, feto-placental insufficiency), thrombosis events is an indication for the screening for genetic thrombophilia and antiphospholipid syndrome. The diagnosis of thrombophilia in patients with mechanical heart valve prostheses can explain the inefficiency of anticoagulation therapy, warfarin resistance, «floating» hemostasis markers and difficulties in adequate dose selection
