Chest pain can be a concerning chief complaint in a standard patient, but chest pain in pregnancy can be downright frightening. The differential diagnosis ranges from benign to life-threatening. Thankfully we have Dr. Tarlan Hedayati to take us through the threatening possibilities as well as a practical approach to the workup of these patients. She'll discuss spontaneous coronary artery dissection (S.C.A.D.), pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection and more.
