Arrhythmogenic mechanisms in pregnancy and principles of treat-ment of arrhythmias in pregnant women
According to the latest data for June 2024, the frequency of arrhythmias in pregnant women was 68%. Most often, these are arrhythmias on the background of concomitant pathology, although the possibility of "benign arrhythmias" that occur as a result of normal physiological processes during pregnancy cannot be excluded. Sinus tachycardia, ventricular and atrial extrasystole are more common in pregnant women. The higher the gestation period, the higher the risk of arrhyth-mias: 1st trimester - 23.4%, 2nd trimester - 46.3%, 3rd trimester - 61.7%. In this article, we will analyze some of the mechanisms of arrhythmias without previous pathology against the back-ground of a normal pregnancy, as well as find out the principles of treatment of arrhythmias, groups of drugs that can be used in this group of patients.
