Severe Maternal Morbidity Cases in Israel in a High-Volume High-Resource Referral Center: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

While obstetric hemorrhage is often unpredictable, deterioration of heart disease is foreseeable. Attention should be directed specifically toward improving the diagnosis and treatment of maternal heart disease during pregnancy in Israel. PMID: 32147977 [PubMed - in process]
