Abstract | Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate whether oscillometric AS measurements are different in pregnant women with and without preeclampsia (PE). Study design: This was a prospective case-control study in singleton pregnancies that had been diagnosed with PE ( Main outcome measures: Pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation index (Alx), and Alx at a heart rate of 75 beats per minute (Alx-75) were measured using a brachial cuff-based automatic oscillometric device (Mobil-O-Graph 24 h PWA). Results: In pregnancies complicated by PE, in comparison with normotensive pregnancies, there were significant differences in PWV ( Conclusions: PWV and Alx-75 are higher in pregnancies complicated by PE, in comparison with normotensive pregnancies, as well as in early-onset PE, in comparison with late-onset PE.Key messagesPulse wave velocity is higher in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia.Augmentation index at a heart rate of 75 beats per minute is higher in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia.Arterial stiffness assessment is a promising risk-stratification tool for future cardiovascular complications but further studies are required. |
