Pregnancy complications and long-term risk of cardiovascular events in women with structural heart disease
Pregnancy complications were frequent in women with SHD. With a median follow-up time of 22 years, preterm birth was associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular mortality, and PE/gHT and preterm birth were associated with cardiovascular morbidity. In women with SHD, pregnancy complications may provide additional information for the risk assessment of future cardiovascular outcomes.
