Brief Summary
There is currently no routine screening for cardiac disease for pregnant women in areas of high prevalence. This study will aim to determine the point prevalence of cardiac disease in women presenting for antenatal care at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital. More specifically, it will aim to use focused echocardiography as a screening tool to determine the prevalence of cardiac disease among pregnant women attending MTRH antenatal clinic.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Cardiac disease
Point prevalence of cardiac lesions identifiable by cardiac echo
through study completion, an average of 3 months
Interventions
All pregnant women attending antenatal care will be eligible to undergo focused cardiac echo to identify underlying cardiac disease
Eligibility Criteria
All pregnant women attending the antenatal clinic at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital. This clinic serves approximately 750 women per month. These women draw from urban, peri-urban and rural areas. As this is a public hospital, income and education levels are low.
You may qualify if:
- pregnant women at any gestational age
- capable to give informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- medically unstable: any condition or complication resulting from or independent of pregnancy that necessitates urgent care or that precludes full and informed consent process
