Labor onset and delivery mode in women with congenital heart disease—A nationwide cohort study
Maternal CHD was associated with higher risks of induced labor and cesarean delivery. From 1994 to 2014, the increase in induced labor was steeper in childbirths of women with CHD than in those of women without heart disease. The occurrence of cesarean deliveries rose in childbirths of women with mild CHD but was stable in childbirths of women with moderate/severe CHD.
