2. VALVULAR HEART DISEASE i) MITRAL STENOSIS: Anaesthetic considerations are to maintain a slow heart rate, venous return and SVR, avoid aorto-caval compression, treat atrial fibrillation (AF) aggressively, try and maintain sinus rhythm, prevent pain, hypoxaemia, hypercarbia and acidosis as these can increase PVR. Both general anaesthesia and regional techniques have been used.

Tachycardia may decrease time for coronary perfusion of the hypertrophied LV.

1. CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE (CHD) Atrial septal / ventricular septal defects in pregnancy are often well tolerated during pregnancy. When anaesthetizing patients with CHD, using either a regional technique or general anaesthesia, the following factors must be kept in mind; prevention of accidental intravenous infusion of air bubbles, when planning epidural anaesthesia, loss of resistance to saline rather than air should be used to identify the epidural space , a slow onset of epidural analgesia

ANESTHESIA FOR CESAREAN DELIVERY FOR CARDIAC PATIENTS: • Patients with mWHO class I or II cardiac disease typically tolerate a traditional intrathecal dose of local anesthesia (eg, hyperbaric bupivacaine 10–15 mg) for cesarean delivery. Depending on the cardiovascular lesion, patients with mWHO class III or IV lesions may benefit from a more gradual-onset sympathectomy. • Neuraxial anesthesia for most patients with cardiac disease undergoing caesarean delivery should be considered.

3. PRIMARY PULMONARY HYPERTENSION: Anaesthetic management is similar to that of the Eisenmenger syndrome. Elective caesarean section is the preferred method of delivery. Both regional and general anaesthesia can be used for caesarean delivery. For regional anaesthetic technique using a slow induction epidural anaesthesia is advised. Vasopressors are only used if absolutely necessary, as they increase pulmonary artery pressure.
