Ten-Year, Thirty-Year, and Lifetime Cardiovascular Disease Risk Estimates Following a Pregnancy Complicated by

Objective: To calculate the cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk estimates for women following a pregnancy with or without preeclampsia Methods: We calculated 10-year, 30-year, and lifetime CVD risk estimates at one year postpartum for women recruited into the Pre-Eclampsia New Emerging Team’s prospective cohort Results: Complete CVD risk screening data were obtained from 118 control women and 99 preeclamptic women A total of 18 2 % of preeclamptic women and 1 7 % of control women had a high 10-year risk (OR 13 08; 95 % CI 3 38 to 85 5), 31 3 % of preeclamptic women and 5 1 % of control women had a high 30-year risk (OR 8 43; 95 % CI 3 48 to 23 23), and 41 4 % of preeclamptic women and 17 8 % of control women had a high lifetime risk for CVD (OR 3 25; 95 % CI 1 76 to 6 11
