dc.description.abstract | Background: A woman's risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is substantially increased after a diagnosis of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), gestational diabetes (GDM), or have had a small for gestational age (SGA) baby. However, evidence for models of care that mitigate CVD risk in women with these pregnancy-related conditions is lacking. Purpose(s): To assess the effectiveness of a Women's Heart Clinic (WHC) on blood pressure (BP) and lipid control in women with past pregnancy-related cardiovascular risk factors. Method(s): A six-month prospective cohort study of women aged 30-55 years with a past pregnancy diagnosis of HDP, GDM or an SGA baby. All women attended a multidisciplinary WHC comprising a cardiologist, a cardiac nurse, and a dietician, located in three cardiovascular healthcare service centers in Australia. Women were assessed at their first attendance of the WHC and at 6 months. The co-primary endpoints were: 1) BP<140/90mmHg or <130/80mmHg if diabetes mellitus and 2) total cholesterol to high density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio (TC:HDL-C)<4.5. Result(s): 156 women were recruited with a mean age of 41.0+/-4.2 years, 68.6% Caucasian, 20.5% South/East Asian and 80.5% university educated. Women were a mean of 3.9+/-2.9 years from last delivery with 23.1% past HDP only, 60.3% GDM only, 13.5% both HDP and GDM and, 3.2% with an SGA baby. All women attended a WHC at least once, with 69.5% reviewed by a dietician. The proportion meeting BP target increased (69.2% to 80.5%, p=0.004); with no significant change in women meeting lipid targets (80.6% to 83.7%, p=0.182). Women had significant reductions in mean systolic BP (-6.9mmHg, 95% confidence interval (CI): -9.1,-4.7, p<0.001), body mass index (-0.6kg/m2, CI: -0.8,-0.3, p<0.001), LDL-cholesterol (-4.2mg/dL, CI: -8.2,-0.2, p=0.042) and total cholesterol (-4.6mg/dL, CI: -9.1,-0.2, p=0.042). Heart-healthy lifestyle significantly improved with increased fish/olive oil (36.5% to 51.0%, p=0.012) and decreased fast food consumption (33.8% to 11.0%, P<0.001), with more women meeting exercise recommendations (84.0% to 92.9%, p=0.025). Conclusion(s): Women at high risk for CVD due to past pregnancy-related conditions experienced significant improvements in multiple cardiovascular risk factors, after attending a Women's Heart Clinic. This female-specific cardiovascular healthcare model has the potential to improve long-term CVD outcomes for women. | - |
