Overview
The common risk factors for Eisenmenger's syndrome include genetic mutations, exposure to rubella virus, and drug and alcohol abuse during pregnancy. Less common risk factors include poor healthcare access and patients in developing countries.
Risk Factors
Common Risk Factors
The common risk factors for Eisenmenger's syndrome include[1][2]:
- Large and complex cardiac defects
- Genetic mutations: Families with a history of congenital heart disease may be at an increased risk for carrying and expressing the trait.
- Exposure to rubella during pregnancy.
- Drug and alcohol exposure during pregnancy.
Less Common Risk Factors
Less common risk factors for Eisenmenger's syndrome include:
- Patients in developing countries: may present with the late complications of congenital heart diseases.
- Poor healthcare access.
