Résumé

Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a leading cause of obstetrical cardiac arrest and maternal morbidity. The pathogenesis of hemodynamic collapse is thought to be from right ventricular (RV) failure; however, there is a paucity of data documenting echocardiography findings in this population. We undertook a systematic review of the literature to evaluate the echocardiography findings in patients with AFE. We retrieved all case reports and case series reporting AFE in Embase and MEDLINE from inception to 20 November 2021. Studies reporting AFE diagnosed by fulfilling at least one of three different proposed AFE criteria and echocardiography findings during hospitalization were included. Patient and echocardiographic data were retrieved, and univariate logistic regression analysis was performed for outcomes of interest. Bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute clinical appraisal tool for case series. Eighty publications reporting on 84 patients were included in the final review. Fifty-five out of 82 patients with data (67%) showed RV dysfunction, including 11/82 (13%) with biventricular dysfunction; 14/82 (17%) had normal systolic function. No data on RV or left ventricular function were reported for two patients. The presence of RV dysfunction on echocardiography was associated with cardiac arrest (odds ratio [OR], 3.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.39 to 9.67; P = 0.009), and a composite risk of cardiac arrest, maternal death or use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (OR, 3.86; 95% CI, 1.43 to 10.4; P = 0.007). A low risk of bias was observed in 15/84 (18%) cases. Right ventricular dysfunction on echocardiography is a common finding in AFE and is associated with a high risk of cardiac arrest. The finding of RV dysfunction on echocardiography may help diagnose AFE and help triage the highest risk patients with AFE. PROSPERO (CRD42021271323); registered 1 September 2021. RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: L’embolie amniotique (EA) est l’une des principales causes d’arrêt cardiaque obstétrical et de morbidité maternelle. Il est présumé que la pathogenèse du choc hémodynamique provient d’une défaillance ventriculaire droite (VD). Cependant, il y a peu de données documentant les constatations de l’examen échocardiographique dans cette population. Nous avons effectué une revue systématique des données probantes visant à évaluer l’utilité de l’échocardiographie chez les patientes atteintes d’embolie amniotique. Nous avons évalué tous les rapports de cas et séries de cas rapportant une EA dans les bases de données Embase et MEDLINE de leur création jusqu’au 20 novembre 2021. Les études rapportant une EA diagnostiquée en remplissant au moins l’un des trois critères d’EA proposés et les résultats échocardiographiques pendant l’hospitalisation ont été incluses. Les données sur les patientes et échocardiographiques ont été colligées, et une analyse de régression logistique univariée a été effectuée pour les issues cliniques d’intérêt. Le risque de biais a été évalué à l’aide de l’outil d’évaluation clinique de l’Institut Joanna Briggs pour les séries de cas. Quatre-vingts publications incluant 84 patientes ont été incluses dans la revue finale. Cinquante-cinq des 82 patientes présentant des données (67 %) avaient une dysfonction du VD incluant 11/82 (13 %) avec une dysfonction biventriculaire. Quatorze patientes sur 82 (17 %) avaient une fonction systolique normale. Aucune donnée sur la fonction du ventricule droit ou gauche n’a été rapportée pour deux patientes. La présence d’une dysfonction du VD à l’échocardiographie était associée à un arrêt cardiaque (rapport de cotes [RC], 3,66; intervalle de confiance à 95 % [IC], 1,39 à 9,67; P = 0,009), et à un risque composite d’arrêt cardiaque, de décès maternel ou d’utilisation de l’oxygénation par membrane extracorporelle (ECMO) (RC, 3,86; IC 95 %, 1,43 à 10,4; P = 0,007). Un faible risque de biais a été observé dans 15/84 (18 %) des cas. La dysfonction ventriculaire droite à l’échocardiographie est une constatation courante dans l’embolie amniotique et est associée à un risque élevé d’arrêt cardiaque. La découverte d’une dysfonction du VD à l’échocardiographie peut aider à diagnostiquer l’embolie amniotique et à identifier les patientes atteintes d’embolie amniotique les plus à risque.
