Show Notes

Dr. Katie Young, co-director of the cardioobstetrics clinic here at Mayo Clinic sits down to talk about peripartum cardiomyopathy. This is something we will likely consider many times in our careers for patients with shortness of breath in and around late pregnancy. Find out what interventions are key, what patients are most likely to suffer a bad outcome and more.
