Core Tip	Hyponatremia was common in our cohort of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) patients, and independently associated with threefold increased risk for all-cause mortality. Hypotension and a left ventricular ejection fraction below 25% at presentation were also independently associated with mortality. Our findings suggest that presence of hyponatraemia in PPCM patients at admission should prompt a thorough clinical evaluation and close clinical monitoring, to identify and address factors contributing to increased mortality risk.
