Prenatal Aspirin and Postpartum Vascular Function
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy disorder affecting ~5-10% of pregnancies in the United States. Women who develop preeclampsia during pregnancy are more likely to develop and die of cardiovascular disease later in life, even if they are otherwise healthy. The reason why this occurs is unclear but may be related to …
Predictors of Aspirin Failure in Preeclampsia Prevention
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (including preeclampsia) are among the leading causes of pregnancy complications and maternal deaths worldwide. They also increase the risks to the babies. Numerous interventions have been suggested in order to reduce the rate of preeclampsia. Low-dose aspirin is the most beneficial prophylactic approach in this regard. …
Daily Aspirin Treatment After Preeclampsia
Women who develop preeclampsia during pregnancy are four times more likely to develop cardiovascular disease later in life, even if they are otherwise healthy. The reason why this occurs may be related to lasting blood vessel damage after the pregnancy but there are currently no specific treatment strategies to prevent …
Mindfulness Breath Awareness Meditation and Preeclampsia
The effect of mindfulness breath awareness meditation on health profile, vital signs, and fetal heart rate in pregnant women with preeclampsia
Prediction of Chronic Kidney Disease Following Pre-eclampsia: Diagnosis and Early Care
Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-associated syndrome of variable severity, classically defined by the combination of hypertension and proteinuria in a previously non-hypertensive or proteinuric patient. These symptoms normally resolve within 2-3 months after delivery regardless of the severity of the pre-eclampsia. Regardless of its definition, preeclampsia is associated with an …
Pilot Study of Microvesicles in Pre-eclamptic and Non-pre-eclamptic Women With Threatened Preterm Delivery
A large number of studies on MVs from syncytiotrophoblasts support the hypothesis of their involvement in pre-eclampsia, via their multiple effects, among others as pro-coagulant, immuno-stimulatory and anti-angiogenic factors. The main objective is to compare the total concentration of the main populations of MVs in the maternal blood of a …
Induction of Labor in Morbidly Obese Patients
The goal of this randomized control trial is to compare different doses of Misoprostol (25 mcg vs 50 mcg) in induction of labor (IOL) in morbidly obese patients with BMI >40. It is known that morbid obesity is a risk factor for failed IOL and ultimately cesarean delivery (CD.) If …
Optic Nerve Sheath Measurement and Angiogenic Factors in Patients With Pre-eclampsia.
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HPT) are an important cause of maternal-feto-neonatal morbidity and mortality, being one of the three leading causes of maternal death in our country and in developing countries. The only cure for THE is termination of pregnancy, which ends up being a decision in which gestational age …
Physical Activity to Mitigate PreEclampsia Risk
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of aerobic (AE), resistance (RE), and combination (AERE) exercise throughout pregnancy on selected maternal and fetal/neonatal physiological variables in women at-risk for preeclampsia. The central hypothesis of this project is that exercise will decrease severity and occurrence of preeclampsia symptoms, …
Effect of Pilates Exercise Versus Circuit Exercise Training on Gestational Hypertension
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of Pilates exercises versus circuit exercise training on blood pressure and lipids in gestational hypertensive women.
