Effect of early-onset preeclampsia on cardiovascular risk in the fifth decade of life
Women with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, in particular early-onset preeclampsia, are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease later in life. These women have a more than two-fold increased risk to die from cardiovascular diseases. Most studies focused on identification of risk factors shortly after pregnancy. Less is known on the prevalence of risk factors or actual signs of cardiovascular disease 5 – 20 years later. The presence of hypertension or metabolic syndrome can be seen as an opportunity for preventive interventions to reduce the development of severe cardiovascular diseases like myocardial ...

Committee Opinion No. 692: Emergent Therapy for Acute-Onset, Severe Hypertension During Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period.
Authors: Abstract Acute-onset, severe systolic hypertension; severe diastolic hypertension; or both can occur during the prenatal, intrapartum, or postpartum periods. Pregnant women or women in the postpartum period with acute-onset, severe systolic hypertension; severe diastolic hypertension; or both require urgent antihypertensive therapy. Introducing standardized, evidence-based clinical guidelines for the management of patients with preeclampsia and eclampsia has been demonstrated to reduce the incidence of adverse maternal outcomes. Individuals and institutions should have mechanisms in place to initiate the...

Maternal Cardiovascular Mortality in Illinois, 2002-2011.
CONCLUSION: From 2002 to 2011, more than one fifth of maternal deaths in Illinois were attributed to cardiovascular disease such as cardiomyopathy. More than one fourth of these deaths were potentially preventable. Health care provider and patient factors were identified, which may be modifiable through education and intensive postpartum monitoring, which may diminish mortality. State maternal mortality reviews can identify opportunities for reducing maternal deaths. PMID: 28383382 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Screening for Preeclampsia: US Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement
(Abstracted from JAMA 2017;317(16):1661–1667) Approximately 4% of pregnancies in the United States are affected by preeclampsia, defined as new-onset hypertension (or worsening hypertension in patients with existing hypertension) after 20 weeks' gestation, combined with either new-onset proteinuria or other symptoms involving multiple organ systems. This disorder is associated with poor maternal and fetal outcomes, including maternal mortality, maternal stroke, low birth weight, and stillbirth.
