Latency of preterm hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and subsequent cardiovascular complications.
The objective of this retrospective cohort study was to test the hypothesis that increasing latency from diagnosis to delivery in patients with preterm hypertensive disorders of pregnancy is associated with an increased maternal risk of cardiovascular admission after delivery. The investigators found that prolonging expectant management of preterm hypertensive disorders of pregnancy was associated with an increased risk of maternal cardiovascular disease after delivery.
