Approach to inherited arrhythmias in pregnancy

Pregnancy is not contraindicated and generally safe in women with IA. Vaginal delivery is generally well tolerated and operative delivery should be reserved to patients with heart failure, recurrent arrhythmia, or obstetric indications. Maternal risk stratification is mandatory to identify women at...
