To combat rising maternal mortality, researchers at Saint Luke's Mid America Heart Institute and UMKC are leading a first of its kind study to create better care for moms with heart conditions during pregnancy.

Todd Shannon expresses thanks to Saint Luke's providers for their life-saving interventions which ultimately saved his life.

The four-year observational study will research U.S. pregnant people with cardiovascular disease to better understand and combat maternal mortality and morbidity.

The new ultrasound probe, which will primarily be used in the hospital's emergency department, provides a detailed view of what's happening in a patient's body in real-time.

In the past, many women born with a heart condition were told they would not be able to birth children safely.
