Risk of cesarean Delivery, overall and stratified by MCD diagnosis

	n (%) Cesarean	Unadjusted Odds Ratio (95% CI)	Adjusted^* Odds Ratio (95% CI)
Any Maternal Cardiac Disease (N = 218)	92 (42.2)	1.70 (1.30, 2.23)	1.63 (1.18, 2.25)
Cardiomyopathy (N = 47)	23 (48.9)	2.21 (1.25, 3.93)	1.34 (0.63, 2.86)
History of Cardiac Surgery (N = 69)	24 (34.8)	1.23 (0.75, 2.02)	1.06 (0.48, 2.35)
Congenital Heart Disease (N = 86)	30 (34.9)	1.23 (0.79, 1.93)	0.93 (0.45, 1.93)
Arrhythmia (N = 86)	38 (44.2)	1.83 (1.20, 2.81)	1.77 (1.02, 3.04)
Aortopathy (N = 32)	17 (53.1)	2.62 (1.31, 5.25)	2.23 (0.95, 5.28)

Odds ratios compared to no MCD.

Models adjusted for patient age, race, parity, number of prior cesarean deliveries, body mass index, gestational age at delivery, and presence of selected comorbid conditions (alcohol use, asthma, cystic fibrosis, chronic kidney disease, gestational diabetes mellitus, pre-gestational diabetes, drug use, HIV/AIDS, multiple gestations, sickle cell anemia, systemic lupus erythematosus, and tobacco use)
