Popis: Objective: Cardiovascular diseases emerge as one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality in developed countries. These risks are even higher in women with prosthetic cardiac valves. The core of the care for these women and the fetus during the hypercoagulable state of the pregnancy and postpartum period is the achievement of coagulation control using adjusted anticoagulation therapy protocols. A multidisciplinary team that includes obstetricians, cardiologists, hematologists, and anesthesiologists in a referral center is essential for an optimal maternal-fetal outcome. In particular, these measures are directed at preventing one of the most serious complications associated with mechanical valve dysfunction. The dysfunctional valve in the mitral position increases maternal and fetal mortality by 30%, especially in the presence of heart failure symptoms. Here we present a case of a 32-week pregnant woman diagnosed with dysfunction of the mechanical mitral valve (MV) and an emergency multidisciplinary approach to her treatment.
