| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: To investigate longitudinal changes in maternal hemodynamics from the first trimester onward in women who develop pre-eclampsia (PE) or gestational hypertension (GH). METHODS: This was a prospective longitudinal study of singleton pregnancies identified by screening at 11 + 0 to 13 + 6 weeks' gestation as being at high risk for PE. Measurements of augmentation index (AIx), pulsed wave velocity (PWV) and aortic systolic blood pressure (SBPao) were taken every 4 weeks until delivery. Values were compared between women who developed preterm PE requiring delivery before 37 weeks, term PE or GH, and those who remained normotensive. RESULTS: A total of 1198 observations were recorded in 245 women, including 181 who were normotensive, 22 with preterm PE, 22 with term PE and 20 with GH. In the normotensive group, there was a U-shaped relationship between AIx and gestational age with a trough at 25 weeks' gestation, whereas changes in levels of PWV or SBPao were minimal, with a mild increase from 25 and 30 weeks' gestation onward, respectively. In the GH and preterm PE groups, compared to the normotensive group, SBPao was higher and the difference did not change significantly with gestational age. In the term PE group, SBPao did not differ significantly from that in the normotensive group. In the preterm PE group compared to the normotensive group, PWV and AIx were significantly higher from 16-17 weeks' gestation onward and the difference increased with gestational age in both cases. In the term PE and GH groups, PWV and AIx did not differ significantly from normal. CONCLUSION: This study describes temporal changes in AIx, PWV and SBPao in normotensive pregnant women and in women who develop PE or GH. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
