BACKGROUND INFORMATION
College Moeder Kind 2
Rare diseases and rare complications of pregnancy
Pulmonary embolism
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a leading cause of maternal death, demonstrated in the 7th report of Confidential Enquiries into maternal deaths in the United Kingdom (2007), and other comparable reports of Norway, Australia, United States. An overview of maternal deaths in SPE (Studiecentrum voor Perinatale Epidemiologie) reported 92 maternal deaths since onset of SPE-registration, of which 12 cases were caused by pulmonary embolism, being the second most frequent cause.
UKOSS has studied Antenatal Pulmonary Embolism in a case-control study: between
February 2005 and August 2006 they identified 143 cases, representing an incidence of
1.3 per 10.000 maternities (95% 1.1-1.5). UK has comprehensive guidelines on both prevention and management of venous thromboembolism in pregnancy (RCOG green top guideline No 37 a and No 37 b). Some of the cases identified were the consequence of suboptimal implementation of the national guidelines for the prevention of thrombosis during pregnancy. However, the majority of the cases (94%) were not eligible for thromboprophylaxis according to the current guidelines. Multiparity and obesity were the main riskfactors, but even this large cohort study had insufficient power to show statistically significant associations with other riskfactors. This highlights the need for very large, multinational studies of rare conditions to accurately identify and quantify significant risks. Antenatal pulmonary embolism is or has been studied by other Obstetric
Surveillance Systems: AMOSS (Australia – New Zealand), AuOSS (Austria), France
(EPIMOMS), GerOSS (Germany).
In Belgium we are currently unaware of the incidence of antenatal pulmonary embolism, how antenatal PE is diagnosed, how we manage antenatal PE and what the outcomes are for both mother and child.
A nationwide study of antenatal PE during 4 years by B.OSS can provide more insight in this rare but possible life-threatening disorder of pregnancy in Belgium. Furthermore this study can contribute to an international study as part of the INOSS (the International
Network of Obstetric Survey Systems).
Research questions:
1.
What is the incidence of antenatal pulmonary embolism in Belgium?
2.
How is antenatal pulmonary embolism managed in Belgium? (What guidelines do we use?)
3.
What is the outcome of antenatal pulmonary embolism in Belgium for mother and child?

Pulmonary embolism
B.OSS will use the same definition as used by UKOSS, to enable comparison and participation in international studies.
– EITHER
PE is confirmed using suitable imaging (angiography, computed tomography, echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging or ventilation-perfusion scan showing a high probability of PE)
– OR PE is confirmed at surgery or postmortem
– OR a clinician has made a diagnosis of PE with signs and symptoms consistent with PE present, and the patient has received a course of anticoagulation therapy (>1 week duration)
