Pregnancy Complications, Cardiovascular Risk Factors, and Future Heart Disease

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2020
Heart disease is the leading cause of mortality in adult women. Beyond the traditional risk factors of obesity, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia, women with the pregnancy complications of preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, prematurity, and low birth weight for gestational age (fetal growth restriction) are at higher risk for later development of ...

Pregnancy Complications as a Window to Future Cardiovascular Disease

Cardiology in Review, 2020
Pregnancy is a time of significant hemodynamic, metabolic, and hormonal stress that can unmask underlying subclinical cardiovascular abnormalities, and pregnancy-related complications may serve as early warning signs for future risk of cardiovascular disease.

Women and Birth, 2023
Certain maternal complications of pregnancy, including hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, gestational diabetes mellitus, birth of a growth restricted infant, idiopathic preterm labour, and placental abruption, are associated with a significantly increased risk of future maternal cardiovascular disease.

The Cardiovascular Complications of Pregnancy

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2007
During the course of a normal pregnancy, the cardiovascular system of the mother is required to adapt to significant alterations in hemodynamics, including an almost 50% increase in cardiac output. This change in cardiac output is mediated by a significant increase in heart rate, a change in blood volume, as well as a neurohormonally mediated increase ...

MATERNAL CARDIOVASCULAR HAEMODYNAMICS IN NORMAL AND COMPLICATED PREGNANCIES

Fetal and Maternal Medicine Review, 2003
Why should obstetricians study maternal cardiac function in normal and complicated pregnancies? Despite our understanding of the importance of disease processes, such as autoimmunity, impaired renal function and long-standing diabetes, on the placenta and thus pregnancy outcome, new data is emerging to suggest that early central cardiovascular ...
