Abstract
Understanding the management of the parturient with single ventricle physiology starts with knowledge of the lesion, the patient's current stage of surgical palliation, her current functional status, and the impact of pregnancy and labor on her cardiac physiology. A multidisciplinary team approach, described in this article, is crucial to a positive outcome.Entities:
