18 Conclusions: Cardiomyopathy Findings: Cardiomyopathy was the cause of pregnancy-related deaths after 42 days postpartum in nearly half of the cases! Recommendations: Enhance postpartum care with Case management / coordination of care with primary healthcare providers/cardiology/patient education for compliance, etc. 18

19 Conclusions: Cardiomyopathy Findings: Black, obese, and multiparous women were at increased risk of deaths due to cardiomyopathy. Recommendations: Provision of preconception counseling/access to family planning services, as part of primary care, to patients with chronic medical conditions including cardiac disease(s). Increased community (both patient/family) awareness of pregnancy-associated risks of women with cardiac disease(s). 19
