At Pune Heart Failure Clinic, we understand the unique cardiovascular challenges that can arise during pregnancy. Our Cardio-Obstetrics services are dedicated to providing specialized care for women from preconception through the postpartum period, ensuring both maternal and fetal well-being.
Our Cardio-Obstetrics Services Include
Pre-Pregnancy Assessment
For women with existing heart conditions or cardiovascular risk factors planning pregnancy, we offer thorough evaluations to assess potential risks and develop personalized care plans.
Specialized Cardiovascular Care During Pregnancy
Our multidisciplinary team collaborates to monitor and manage heart health throughout pregnancy, addressing conditions such as valvular heart disease, heart failure, congenital heart disease, vascular disorders, arrhythmias, and pulmonary hypertension.
Postpartum Cardiac Care
We provide ongoing support and treatment for women who develop peripartum cardiomyopathy or other cardiovascular conditions related to pregnancy, ensuring a smooth transition to postpartum health.
Understanding Pregnancy's Impact On The Heart
Pregnancy induces significant physiological changes in the cardiovascular system, including increased blood volume and heart rate, which can unmask or exacerbate underlying heart conditions. These changes underscore the importance of specialized cardiac care during this critical time.

Conditions like aortic or mitral stenosis can pose serious risks during pregnancy. Our team provides expert management to ensure the safety for both mother and baby.
Heart Failure
We offer comprehensive care for women with weakened heart function, including those diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy, to optimize health outcomes.
Congenital Heart Disease
For women with congenital heart conditions, we provide tailored care plans to navigate the complexities of pregnancy safely.
Vascular Disorders
Conditions such as Marfan’s Syndrome or Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome require specialized monitoring to prevent complications like aortic dissection during pregnancy.
Arrhythmias
We manage abnormal heart rhythms that may develop or worsen during pregnancy, ensuring timely intervention and treatment.
Pulmonary Hypertension
Pregnancy can pose significant risks for women with pulmonary hypertension. Our team offers expert guidance and care to manage this condition effectively.
