Arrhythmias in the Fetus
Description
Join Dr. Janette Strasburger and Tia Hansen for their perspectives on diagnosing inherited arrhythmias in the fetus. Dr. Strasburger will present on what to look for in a pregnancy that may suggest an inherited arrhythmia, modifiable risk factors, and ways to diagnose these conditions in the fetus. She will also review recommended guidelines. Tia will talk about her personal experience going through pregnancy with one of these conditions.
