Implication

Comparative cross-sectional study reveals cardiac abnormalities in preeclampsia, suggesting the need for Transthoracic echocardiograms.

Key Points

  • Prevalence of cardiac abnormalities was higher in women with preeclampsia compared to normotensive women.
  • Transthoracic echocardiograms highlighted significant structural changes in the left ventricle of preeclamptic women.
  • Logistic regression analysis indicated the significance of vascular tone and cardiac output in preeclampsia.
  • Further longitudinal studies are necessary to define timing for cardiac evaluation in preeclampsia and normotensive women.
