Pregnancy complication history should not yet refine CVD risk models in parous women; leaves open whether targeted pre-eclampsia assessment improves prediction in subgroups.
Does pregnancy complication history improve cardiovascular disease risk prediction in parous women?
While pre-eclampsia is an independent predictor of CVD, incorporating a detailed history of pregnancy complications adds only marginal value to established CVD risk prediction models in parous women.
Markovitz et al. (2018) studied this question.
