Incidence and outcomes of acute high-risk chest pain diseases during pregnancy and puerperium.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

To investigate the incidence and outcomes of acute high-risk chest pain diseases, including acute myocardial infarction (AMI), aortic dissection (AD), and pulmonary embolism (PE) during pregnancy and puerperium.

Methods

The National Inpatient Sample was queried to identify pregnancy-related hospitalizations from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2017. Temporal trends in the incidence and mortality of AMI, AD and PE were extracted.

Results

Among 41,174,101 hospitalizations, acute high-risk chest pain diseases were diagnosed in 40,285 (0.098%). The incidence increased from 79.92/100,000 in 2008 to 114.79/100,000 in 2017 (P_trend < 0.0001). The most frequent was PE (86.5%), followed by AMI (9.6%) and AD (3.3%). The incidence of PE in pregnancy decreased after
