【 摘 要 】

Select patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy are candidates for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) due to the increased risk for life threatening arrhythmias and sudden death. We present a case of peripartum cardiomyopathy awaiting CRT placement who suffered cardiac arrest during the surgical dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure for pregnancy termination.
