"What is the unique things about the Medical College of Wisconsin is that we work in a very multidisciplinary way to take care of my patients. They've brought up a shock Patriot. But in addition to that we have a cardio obstetrics Atlantic run by DR Horton and dr. Cohen where these patients are referred often from smaller centres off and I followed that longitudinally and get the care that they need and afterthoughts and it's going to be one of our PCP our experts who's going to talk about pregnancy and related cardiac disease things back then and great job w n Shoe City Dave and Kate for the presentation. Thanks for asking me to talk a little bit about peripartum cardiomyopathy, which is a disease process that affects typically younger and healthier patients than we're used to seeing in cardiology. So briefly peripartum cardiomyopathy is a disease process that has a widely variable incidence for countries like Nigeria Haiti anything From one and hundred two hundred three hundred births are Complicated by this diagnosis and in countries such as Japan the incidence is much smaller at 1 in about 20,000. The United States need to some place in between those numbers with incidence rates being reported from between 1 and 1000 to 1 and four thousand and as we know it affects different populations differently its insulin is much higher and women of African American descent and women who are older at the time of their pregnancies a recent meta-analysis on that almost half of all peripartum cardiomyopathy cases occurred in women over thirty years of age during their index pregnancy other pathologies of that are associated with peripartum cardiomyopathy include the spectrum of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. So everything off gestational hypertension up to an including preeclampsia and eclampsia other risk factors, multi gestation, pregnancies Twins and triplets and the emerging role of a genetic. Position towards cardiomyopathies the new information regarding a potential genetic predisposition towards peripartum cardiomyopathy, which has been found in multiple family cohorts has led an interesting critical question regarding the potential role of genetic testing in patients diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy right now. It's a fairly varied clinical practice with many experts in the field suggesting the role of genetic testing and patience with a family history of dilated cardiomyopathy is in regards to the management of peripartum cardiomyopathy. It's very similar to patients with other ideologies of reduced ejection fraction and congestive heart failure. So during the acute phase of their presentation actually manage their loading conditions, including the preload and afterload and management of their volume status. What's not often recognized is the frequency with which arrhythmia is complicate the initial diagnosis of peripartum cardiomyopathy our recent administrative level data set on that but most 20% of incident. Pardon cardiomyopathy hospitalizations are Complicated by arrhythmia with ventricular. Tachycardia being the most common are with Mia another aspect wage through the management of peripartum cardiomyopathy is the need and correct population for anticoagulation in the setting of severe well leads to solid function in the peripartum cardiomyopathy patient. It's well known that pregnancy in the immediate post-partum state are prothrombotic environments. And so there is concern that these pages may be at increased risk for thrombosis different experts in the field in different credit recommendations suggest a threshold of left ventricular ejection fraction of 30 to 35% off. The institution of anticoagulation so that's where the commonalities between acute systolic heart failure due to other ideologies and. Pardon cardiomyopathy. And and this is where we start talking about the things that are different. So as we all know any of these recommendations for management have to be made in the context of pregnancy or the potential for lactation and so several of our commonly used normal hormonal therapies need to be either avoided in the pregnant State such as in June 10th and converting enzyme Inhibitors and your attention to receptor blockers and your tips and receptor it never license Inhibitors and mineral coracoid antagonists and or used with caution in the in period of Life station. The only two medications that are commonly used in the treatment of systolic congestive heart failure that there is not adequate data during the lactose. . Our sacubitril which is an upper license inhibitor, and I have a breeding people into certain medications including commonly used medication such as ACE inhibitors Angiotensin receptor blockers, neprilysin Inhibitors and minimal corticoid antagonists in pregnancy. This is where the commonalities between the treatment of acute systolic heart failure a secondary to non pregnancy-related causes and the treatment of patients with. Particle cardiomyopathy typically ends. We have to make all of our treatment decisions in the e-text of pregnancy or potential adaptation which includes avoidance of certain medications, which are contraindicated in pregnancy additionally care should be given to the use of certain medications including neprilysin Inhibitors. And I have a breeding during lactation that there's not sufficient data to support their use right now the next factor that differs in the wage. Event of peripartum cardiomyopathy is the time course with which it's recommended to consider different relators for women with severe systolic dysfunction often times. I'll be recovery occurs within the three to six-month Mark after diagnosis. However recovery has been documented out to two years and so most experts in the field recommend consideration of a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator for women with relatively recent on set. Pardon cardiomyopathy as a bridge to a more permanent device. So in terms of pathology specific treatment bromocriptine is a medication which inhibits the secretion of prolactin and has been studied in peripartum cardiomyopathy in a real small studies. However, there are significant risks associated with the medication including the risk of thrombosis and the majority of the small studies Collective control group home. Right. Now there isn't consensus in the field. Whether bromocriptine should be part of standardized treatment for peripartum cardiomyopathy. And there's a lot of recent work being done towards developing the 7th. Dr. McNamara is in the initial phases of the rebirth trial which is a trial that will look at bromocriptine and outcomes in the treatment of acute peripartum cardiomyopathy. So the good news about peripartum cardiomyopathy is that it's associated with a much higher rate of recovery compared to other forms of reduced ejection fraction over several data sets and wage importantly, the only perspective it is that we have the iPad trial about seventy to seventy-five per-cent of women recover the Earth their ejection fraction at 12 months so much better rate of recovery compared to other cardiomyopathies at Medical College of Wisconsin and freighter. We have a specific Clinic to.

"The health condition of the blues J. balmy Easter who suddenly collapsed on the team bench during a game Tuesday night in Anaheim on Friday the blues announced that Bouwmeester underwent a successful cardiac procedure well in a California hospital here to talk with us about that is doctor Michael them doctor them as us new Kerr cardiologists at SSM health Saint Louis University hospital doctor then thanks for joining us again it's my pleasure St Louis blues have announced that Jay Bouwmeester had an implantable cardioverter defibrillator and ICD implanted by doctors at the university of California Irvine tell us what is this device and why would you need one absolutely so an icy D. implantable cardiac defibrillator is sort of like a pacemaker so we implanted kind of in the shoulder just below the collarbone most the time there's either one or two wires which extend for this device into the vein and they get implanted in the heart and what this does is actually monitors your heart beat on a twenty four seven basis and is programmed to detect if your heart rhythm goes into a bad heart rhythm we would call that ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation and if that were to occur than it has two ways to try to get your heart out of that resume one would be to try to pace it really rapidly to break that fast heart rhythm the second and the more common way is actually to deliver a shock inside the heart which would cause that heart rhythm to end and a normal with them to continue and so the reasons why we would put these and really fall into two one as preventative where there are some people with some heart conditions where the risk of developing one of these heart rhythms is high enough that we would put one in for prevention meaning that we think that your risk for developing one of these heart rhythms and we'd like to make sure that this doesn't because your demise or likely in Jabal misters case the concept was we think that you had one of these heart rhythms and we you know we sent you had one of these heart rhythms you are at risk for having in again and so you get one of these put in to prevent a yes from causing a problem edit if this would occur any time down the road what's the recovery time for something like this and what it limit activity so the recovery time is not long this is put in with an incision in the skin and and the devices actually put under the skin and so you have to allow that skin incision to heal the wires that go into the heart actually have to be healed inside the heart and so most people will be put in a swing with some immobility the arm for a few days and SO in most the time we put them in the non dominant harm or the non dominant side so if you're right handed it would go on the left side or vice versa in so those would be the activities or the is sort of the recovery time and activity limitations that somebody would have this getting an ICD have anything to do with having a fib or atrial fibrillation so for Jay Bouwmeester have an icy D. placed again and unfortunately can only speculate but the likelihood is to me that it's not about he troll for relation in any way shape or form is about the believe or the occurrence of a either ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation as the heart rhythms that caused him to collapse on the bench the other night ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia are the two rhythms that are not compatible with continued to live and do you require an immediate electric shock as he received immediately there while on the bench to convert your heart from one of these bad heart rhythms to a more normal rhythm which allows blood flow to occur again how rare is something like this in a world class athlete Mike Jay Bouwmeester so the occurrence of intricate or for violation of intricate tech Carty would not be very common in this type of an individual of but I believe the first time that this actually occurred in the NHL in the recent past was a player named Yuri Fisher who played for the Detroit Red Wings who had is a memory serves me sort of the exact same course where he ended up with an implantable cardiac defibrillator and so it's it's not you know the only case that's ever occurred in the history of man but it is very rare for highly conditioned athletes to develop these types of things we're talking with doctor Michael them doctor them as a slew Kerr cardiologists at SNL Saint Louis University hospital doctor them I see dis aside let's talk about lessons that can be learned from what we saw happen Tuesday night during the blues game in Anaheim when Jay bow Mr suddenly collapsed on the team bench what can we learn from that I think the biggest lesson is that you know this type of thing unfortunately can happen to anybody and many times we tried to couch bad hard events to be associated with people who may be out of shape or have different physical appearance is or more sedentary lifestyles the scariest thing when one of our blues players who are clearly one of the best condition athletes are around has one of these things is that it truly doesn't necessarily exclude those people another lesson be found in the quick response to Jay Bouwmeester is collapse so it's a key with respect to that we all can pay attention to is that if this can happen to anybody who then are we prepared to be able to do something about it are we prepared to be good neighbors in good citizens and remember most the time the people that we hang out with that are around us all the time are either our family and loved ones or closest friends and nobody ever wants any of this type of thing to happen to one of those folks but if it does happen where somebody is unresponsive and slumps to the floor it's possible that they've had a significant part of that and that's never gonna heart of that may have led to the fact that they don't have blood flow circulating through their body and so that's why we ever really push for people to become trained and comfortable to be doing CPR so recognize that somebody who slumps down is unresponsive and it doesn't have a pulse need CPR and being comfortable putting your hands on their chest and performing this task can be life saving also part of CPR training is understanding that an automatic external defibrillator or E. D. also can be lifesaving in being able to get one and hook it up to a person which doesn't take much except for following the pictures that are on the actual pads and very easy directions on most eighty dis would basically just says push here and there's audio prompts of telling you exactly what to do if that audio prompt tells you to shock that patient or that person you can actually convert their heart rhythm to one that can't pump blood through their body two one that can and the sooner you provide CPR the sooner you provide the eighty D. therapy the more likely it is that you get that person to survive this episode and live another day so let's say someone in our office collapses tell us exactly what should we do in win exactly what we just talked about is usually if you witness somebody collapsing number one you should alert people to so that there's a team that now becomes involved one person whoever's closer should check that person for a pulse if there's no policies should immediately begin hands only CPR his direct chest compressions somebody else who's been alerted called nine one one to get the to the highly trained merging are merging see medical personnel to start responding to your location and somebody else brings the AT T. to where that person is and starts hooking it up and that is the exact mechanism which you can provide immediate and life saving care the process that happen with Jay Bouwmeester that's exactly what happened except they have EMS on site and they have doctors on site but the immediacy of it is what everybody continues to remark about and of may in fact have turned out to be the most significant piece of the whole thing back to them thanks a lot for your time really appreciate it my pleasure Fred taker Dr Michael them as a slew care cardiologists at SSM health Saint Louis University hospital now what we come back we'll talk a little bit more about atrial fibrillation you're listening to health matters presented by SS and health on the voice of Saint Louis KMOX Hey it's Bob Matthews joined me Sunday at high noon for second amendment radio in the great outdoors with Tony Colombo then Ryan wrecker interest because all join me to chat about the headlines of the week including all that happened in New Hampshire dating somebody with a different political view or married to somebody like that doesn't happen and churches trash this Sunday on the voice of Saint Louis.

"To say you know I care enough about myself and an about at my own house to say okay. We want to get a second opinion. And if the second doctor says no it's just stress than okay. It's stress trust but if the second doctor so pay me do we need to give this a walk. Then Qianlong to advocate for yourself can be such a a way of basically saving your life. I mean I can. I can recall the night before my first surgery. having a really bad episode of cardiac online my parents spoke with the doctor. They said come into the emergency room will admit you tonight on then that way. You're here bright and early for the surgery surgery tomorrow and can monitor what's going on and going into the ER and the first nurse in the emergency room that came up to me. Was We horrible to me. I'm just kept badgering me. Tell her what drugs I look and here I am. I've been diagnosed but because I'm young and I work healthy. We're going to assume that I took drugs as opposed to the fact that I'm checking into the hospital because tomorrow morning. I'm having a cardiac ablation and so just thinking from that experience taking the moment to say you know if somebody says something doesn't feel right. We shouldn't jump to conclusions and say well you're young Or your healthy so it could never possibly be whatever the outcome is but just willingness to kind of look at the options is and and say you know could it be. Could it be a heart attack. It could be even if you're not a seventy seven year old man. Yeah it could be a heart attack. It could be. You're thirty five and a young woman and healthy and having a heart attack and it doesn't necessarily you look the way that the TV or the movies shall ass or even the way. The medical field talks about it in terms of what a typical man heart attack. Looks like as opposed to the symptoms that a woman might have your obviously doing well and everything's under control as far as you know with your condition but I'm sure it hasn't always been that way for you. So what would you say have been or has been your lowest point or your your biggest fear about living with heart disease. I think when I was initially diagnosed the initial list of Oh you will never was really difficult to handle but I think as a teenager so much of it so far future that it was hard to Oh really internalize but when I was thirty and the symptoms came back it was frustrating. I can I can and say that I met my husband. We had our first date. I think three days before I had my I repeat episode of of the Chocolate Cardia and so basically our I more or less six months of dating was the re diagnosis the testing costing and trying to schedule surgery. And so you're it was that I met this person and we clicked and things seemed really great but the the first six months of our relationship was dealing with medication and doctor's appointments on medication that more or less. He joked he knew that if once they took the medication was about an hour before I was more or less than the unconscious because it affected me so deeply so I think that was really frustrating into like you know we did all these things right and probably in the best health I've ever been and I'm working a job. I haven't met this guy that I like and all of these things being seem to be going right and then out pops this heart issue again and saying so. Are they going to tell me. These limits again. Am I going the sit here and thirty one living like I am living alone and I I am driving a car and I do like my job wondering wondering you know. Are they gonNA say all of that needs to go away or are they gonna dot point because at that point children do seem like something. That's feasible as a ball. Are they gonNA stay up. And so I think that would probably the most difficult sort of period and then once Over being able to combat hugh commissions and optimistic part of Gorda. Okay I got through that. Let's analysis with life right and you're married now so he passed that test. It sounds like early in the relationship right. That was the true true test that I'm happy that it worked out. And he's obviously good guide. Sounds like is he stuck around he was there and now. He's your husband so right right great. We've talked about the difficult times. And you're motivated driven woman and you do volunteer here and advocate for Heart Disease Awareness and education. And you do some work with your local American Heart Association chapter can can you tell me about what some of the things that you're doing to kind of raise awareness with the community. Yes so in the past I was a heart walk. Survivor advocate When they need people to kind of go out and share their story? I always willing to do that. A good a local radio program last week actually Talking about heart disease and sort of women's heart issues I serves as the CO chair of the New Jersey State government relations committee and so in that context. I get to kind of go out and advocate with our lawmakers about issues related to health care. So I've been to meet with members of Congress and their staff on more than one occasion in in DC and was there in June actually. In the middle of sort of the first round of healthcare voting to advocating on behalf of myself on behalf of research and folk to experienced stroke and heart attack limited to you all different issues sort of sharing the story. And I think that it's important especially as I'm GonNa call myself young even though forty it's approaching as a young still you in the contract and that's and that's what it is in the context of heart disease to share with people staffer who are in and around my age and have had similar educational experiences that down. And you know it's not just your grandparents that have cardiac issues. It's not just people who are seventy and older. It's people who are young then when we pass legislation or make decisions about funding. We need to make sure that we're taking into account that there are children and there are young people and and we're really setting them up for a lifetime of success by funding things and funding research. Especially right we're complicating things for them and so I think that that's been probably some of the more rewarding things to be able to sit and look at people and say hey remember when you went to law school it was great time rang. I love school and I got to go because I have taken care of and thinking about putting them sort of put on my shoes and look at me and say you could be me. It's hard to imagine my ninety year old grandmother in in your shoes that you and I are the same age and we've had you know we're wearing the same suit so we could be interchangeable so things things in perspective and it humanizes to the experience because there's a face it's not just this abstract thing that affecting old people and I'm I'm too young to even think about that but it's somebody you know it's a colleague gets a family member you know it adds it puts a face to disease these. It doesn't actually this last time My son came with us to DC until it was nice to sort of point to him and say. This is the kid that I thought I would never have buy. In 'cause we fund research and advances were made they dealt with my issue uh now here he is and he's cute and he's funny and he's making me live laugh and not because we fund Nih Research and and I ate research funds heart research across the country. And then that's how we get advancement in care so it's good that you know you. You are advocating for the cause and you know putting that law degree to us and kind of working and networking with folks folks than your circle. Because that's what it's about just really educating educating educating and raising awareness what has living with heart disease tie you you from fifteen years ago to now thirty nine you know a number of years but what would you say has is your outlook on life or oh has it shaped who you are as a woman today I think it lets you take things in stride in ways that I think people people who haven't dealt with serious illness can't you. There's a lot of perspective taking so you know I get a flat tire on my way to work. Yes it's terrible all and I hate it but it's okay we can get through it and I think that lets you be resilient in ways that maybe wouldn't have otherwise thought I mean if you can overcome heart disease then yeah you can do. I'm pretty much anything and I think that's pretty much always been my perspective on it. That are not going to let it via limitation. I'm going to let it be a motivation. Chen sort of You tell me I can't. I'm going to prove you wrong and so and I think that there are times that sometimes times when we're given this. Devastating News attempted to sort of wallow in the experience or kind of have a hard time. Imagining what we're GONNA do to deal with it. And I tried to flip that on the had and say okay. I got through that I can get through anything. which is is why? I went back to school at thirty two to get a doctorate and was able to say you know other days of business. Terrible being the graduate student in my thirties but I can do it dissertations. Not so bad after you've had heart surgery while you were awake so I think that that's part of it is just kind of using it as a motivator and not letting it limit me I mean I still don't drink coffee and I don't think Caffeine ASEAN and other stuff that I don't do you know I never had a cigarette but I don't really feel like missing out because I never had a cigarette and didn't have have that rebellious teenage period. where I did crazy stuff like that? I think that it it sort of let me rationalize or it works through different choices in different ways and make decisions about sort of what life to live. Because I I can imagine that the ten year old thinking wow I'm gonna live with my parents for the rest of my life. So and how important adventure. How important importantly thank for? You was just having that support system you know what your parents obviously because you were fifteen when you were diagnosed but just having a network around you over the years to kind of help to shape those beliefs and attitude that you have positive outcome. I I think that a support network really just sucks you up for success. I mean your twenty th what you're GonNa do it but if you're around people that are willing support you. I think it makes it easier. If you're around people who aren't willing to support you being able to reach out to other networks you know through the go read movement and being able to connect with other people who have more experience that even if it's online being able to connect with other women Eh. Doing the same thing you're doing. I think that makes it easier because you don't feel alone with this strange thing that everybody in society thanks again old white man. That's who have heart disease or your grandparents so being able to. Do you know the people in your life able to support you in a way that you need to be supported being able to reach out and find people who will support groups online supports volunteer opportunities. That will connect you to other people. I think that that gave you a place to share your experience but also plays to realize that you're not the only one on dealing with these issues so we're about to wrap up here rebecca so any final thoughts anything. I didn't ask that you would like to share Air and also where can we find you..
