AIM: Acute preeclampsia is associated with significantly higher prevalence of
asymptomatic global left ventricular (LV) abnormal function and myocardial injury
than uneventful pregnancy. Hence, this study was undertaken to evaluate the LV
changes in preeclamptic women and to compare with normotensive women. MATERIALS
AND METHODS: This study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and
Gynaecology, M. S. Ramaiah Medical College and Teaching Hospital, Bengaluru.
Two-hundred women were in each group: 200 patients with preeclampsia as cases and
200 normotensive patients as controls. RESULTS: The mean LV end-systolic volume
(LV ESV) in preeclamptic women was 33.45 ± 2.8, LV end-diastolic volume (LV EDV)
was 106 ± 3.01, and LV systolic mass (LV Ms) was 87.1 ± 1.65 when compared to
normotensive women LV ESV - 27 ± 0.74, (P < 0.0001) LV EDV - 106.2 ± 0.43, (P -
0.3528), and LV Ms - 84 ± 0.56 (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: This study emphasizes
the importance of identifying this subset of preeclamptic patients with echo
changes who are at higher risk of developing cardiovascular complications later
in life by undergoing echocardiography.
