2 3 In the estimated 85% of women who experience pregnancy during their lifetime, cardiovascular complications during pregnancy and childbirth present an opportunity to assess risk for later CVD. 1 Pregnancy can often ‘unmask’ CVD in women. Gestational diabetes, preterm birth and intrauterine growth restriction had more modest associations.Ĭardiovascular disease (CVD) is a significant and often underappreciated cause of morbidity and mortality in women. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were associated with 1.4-fold (95% CI 1.0 to 2.0) to 7.6-fold (95% CI 5.4 to 10.7) higher risk of myocardial infarction, heart failure and stroke, resulting in a maximum of ~1 additional event per 1000 person-years. There was a 13.0-fold increase in myocardial infarction (95% CI 4.1 to 40.9) and a 7.7-fold increase in stroke (95% CI 2.4 to 24.0). Using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models, peripartum cardiomyopathy was independently associated with a 39.2-fold increase in heart failure (95% CI 30.0 to 51.9), resulting in ~1 additional hospitalisation per 1000 person-years. Among 1.6 million pregnancies (mean age 28 years median follow-up time to event excluding censoring 2.7 years), 558 cases of peripartum cardiomyopathy, 123 603 hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, 107 636 cases of gestational diabetes, 116 768 preterm births and 23 504 cases of intrauterine growth restriction were observed. Pregnancies, exposures, covariates and outcomes were defined by International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes.
