Pregnant women with mechanical valves are considered a high-risk pregnancy. They carry an increased risk of both maternal and foetal complications. This includes maternal valve thrombosis, foetal embryopathy, and haemorrhage. Cardiac surgery is generally avoided during pregnancy, and is used when there are no other alternative options. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during pregnancy is associated with high foetal mortality. Maternal mortality in the setting of CPB however, is not dissimilar to a non-pregnant woman.
