In connection with this, the following measures should be taken:


However, this algorithm is the opinion of only domestic obstetricians. According to data of some authors [3, 10], the complicated course of pregnancy and the increase in clinical symptoms in women with MVP are extremely rare. Women are primarily advised to avoid stressful situations, drinking coffee, strong tea, alcohol and tobacco, and using β-mimetics. Therapy is required only in the presence of arrhythmia (often tachycardia and extrasystoles). In this case, β-blockers are the drugs of choice. An interesting one is the recommendation of antibiotic prophylaxis in the presence of MVP and delivery with cesarean section in order to avoid infective endocarditis, but it is also controversial. The risk of serious complications in women with uncomplicated MVP younger than 45 years old is 0.2% per year.

Thus, the data presented earlier indicate a number of conflicting views on the etiology, classification, pathogenetic features of the mitral valve prolapsed, and the significance of its presence in the formation of various obstetric and perinatal complications. At present, it is urgent to continue research into the complex effects of nondifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia (NCTD) and MVP on the course of pregnancy, postpartum and neonatal delivery, analysis of current classifications of NCTD and pathogenetic (including genetic factors) of MVP features, and the definition of their importance in the development of obstetric complications.
