@entity1 @entity296 @entity233 @entity1133
UNASSIGNED: We conducted this study to determine demographic details, and clinical presentations in @entity1 with peripartum @entity296 (PPCMP) of Turkish origin. The study population consisted of 58 @entity1 with PPCMP treated at 3 major hospitals in @entity233 , retrospectively. In this study, demographic details and initial echocardiographic data were recorded and long-term clinical status was evaluated. The mean age for the @entity1 cohort was 31.47        6.31 years. Thirty-eight @entity1 (73.1%) were multigravida and seven @entity1 had multifetal pregnancy (13.7%). The mean follow-up left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction increased from 31        7 to 38        19. A minority of @entity1 were defined as improvers according to our pre-specified criteria. The average survival period after diagnosis of PPCMP was 20.66        14.44 months. Initial values for LV end-diastolic diameter and @entity1133 were higher in the deceased @entity1 compared with the surviving @entity1 , respectively. Twenty-eight (48%) @entity1 with PPCMP showed improvement in the follow-up period. Of the 58 PPCMP @entity1 , 9 (15%) died during a mean follow-up of 32        22 months.
