No mother needs to die, no child needs to be motherless from PPCM.
PPCM Fund Inc. is a 501c3 nonprofit organization founded by PPCM survivors dedicated to saving unsuspecting mothers and their families from Peripartum Cardiomyopathy. PPCM is a pregnancy induced heart failure; a relatively unknown yet deadly heart disease surrounding new mothers. We are on a mission to implement systems, spread awareness and further research & aid in the prevention of Peripartum Cardiomyopathy as well as provide support to the families that have been deeply affected as a result of PPCM.
We spread awareness in order to save lives!
Women have been giving birth since the beginning of time. We can fly to the moon but no one has ever herd about the global pregnancy that any girl can get?!?!....again there is a cure so why are young healthy girls/women suffering or dying after they give birth?
PPCM Peaks once the new mommy gives birth..
There is still time to save her life.
PPCM can be treated as early as 10 weeks pregnant but "Lack of Awareness" means zero medical records of an any issue of PPCM, misdiagnosed and untreated for PPCM is life threatening.
It is 2020 & Enough families have suffered.. EVERY Article/News etc. only writes & reads "New mom died of having chest pains"
They never say from PPCM. Why? And Why has not the medical professionals have not shared this information over time and making the life saving tests mandatory to every girl/women before and after birth?
Ask the ACOG. They hold the BNP Test.
THERE IS A PRACTICAL SOLUTION
TO THIS PPCM PROBLEM
We Fight Against PPCM
"The Silent Killer"
"Early Diagnosis Saves Lives"
A key part of our mission is to raise the standard Screening, Testing and Labs with Implementing "during and after pregnancy"
Providing the NT-pro BNP Test, BPN Test & an EKG/Echo
Demand an EKG/Echocardiogram in her 3rd Trimester.
All NEEDS to be mandatory in every OBGYN/Birthing Professional offices for ALL Pregnancies & know the heart & EF%
The Pro B-Type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) Chest X-Ray will determine if the heart has enlarged & EKG can save lives with early diagnosis "before and after delivery"
"Take action against Pregnancy Induced Heart-Failure"
Shockingly, we have found that most big-name institutions
DOES NOT support PPCM-Peripartum Cardiomyopathy in regards:
PREGNANCY, DELIVERY, POSTPARTUM CARE, WOMEN'S HEALTH, PROCEDURES. AND PATIENT EDUCATION .
HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?
This is a girl thing...a women global issue!

see a cardiologist immediately.
