Hemodynamic maladaptation and left ventricular dysfunction in chronic hypertensive patients at the beginning of gestation and pregnancy complications: a case control study

Herbert Valensise et al.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between cardiovascular health and cardiac function during early pregnancy and the development of complications in chronic hypertensive patients. The results showed that patients with complications had abnormal cardiac indices in early pregnancy, including heart rate, cardiac output, vascular resistance, and left ventricular morphology. In addition, diastolic and systolic function were also affected. These findings suggest that early assessment of cardiovascular parameters during early pregnancy can help predict the development of complications in hypertensive patients.

Maternal cardiovascular potential and kinetic energy indices in pre-eclamptic and small-for-gestational-age pregnancies

J. Gutierrez Henares et al.

Summary: Objective non-invasive assessment of maternal cardiovascular potential and kinetic energy using PKR and SMII may help distinguish pregnancies affected by specific placental disorders and those exhibiting healthy cardiovascular adaptation to pregnancy. Women with HDP and/or SGA have distinctive PKR and SMII profiles, reflecting low kinetic energy in pregnancies with SGA and high potential energy in pregnancies affected by HDP. Non-invasive assessment of potential and kinetic cardiovascular energy demonstrates high-flow and low-resistance adaptation in uncomplicated pregnancies.

Friendly help for clinical use of maternal hemodynamics

Herbert Valensise et al.

Summary: This study aimed to create a graphing technique to evaluate six main hemodynamic parameters simultaneously, helping physicians easily understand the hemodynamic status of pregnant women. By using radar chart to display multivariate data of hemodynamic measurements in pregnant women, it is possible to better understand the hemodynamic changes during pregnancy.

Fetal Growth Restriction: Does an Integrated Maternal Hemodynamic-Placental Model Fit Better?

F. Mecacci et al.

Summary: The relationship between fetal growth restriction and maternal cardiovascular function is complex, with different pathogenic pathways for early and late-onset FGR. Early-onset FGR may be related to abnormal placentation, while late-onset FGR could be associated with maternal cardiovascular maladaptation.

Wave reflections in the umbilical artery measured by Doppler ultrasound as a novel predictor of placental pathology

Lindsay S. Cahilla et al.

Summary: The study examined whether wave reflections in the umbilical artery can predict placental vascular pathology, with results showing significantly elevated wave reflections in women with MVM or FVM pathology, while umbilical and uterine artery pulsatility indices were only elevated in the MVM group.
