Description

Resha Reya Ganthan and Francesco Rotatori pool studies on a heart condition tied to pregnancy, in a 2026 review. The condition weakens the heart's main pumping chamber near the end of pregnancy or after birth. It is a key cause of heart illness and death in mothers. The authors set out to sum up death rates and other outcomes.

They searched three databases through April 2026. Sixty studies with 44,922 patients met their rules. The pooled death rate was seven percent. Rates varied widely across studies, from zero to over 25 percent. Heart failure hospital stays were also pooled. The wide spread shows how much setting and care shape the outlook for these mothers.
