Minissian, PhDc, ACNP, CLS, AACC, FAHA Nurse Scientist, Cardiology Nurse Practitioner Clinical Lipid Specialist Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute Women's Heart Center Los Angeles, California Chrisandra Shufelt, MD, MS, FACP Associate Director, Barbra Streisand Women s Heart Center & Preventive Rehabilitative Cardiac Center Director, Women s Hormone and Menopause Program Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute Associate Professor, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Los Angeles, California Disclosures Learning Objectives Margo B. Minissian: Consultant Sanofi Regeneron; Grant/Research Support American Heart Association, NIH, National Lipid Foundation Chrisandra Shufelt has disclosed no relevant financial relationships with any commercial interests. Assess the cardiovascular system during pregnancy Analyze adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) as a risk for future maternal heart disease Prepare a detailed history and physical including pregnancy and APO history for female patients Explain the timing hypothesis and role that estrogen plays on a healthy blood vessel as compared to diseased blood vessel Identify the indications for starting hormone replacement therapy in women and describe how to use ASCVD risk to guide treatment options Analyze non-hormonal treatment options to systemic hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms and how to counsel patients on usage APO = adverse pregnancy outcome; ASCVD = atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Crash Test Dummies Pregnancy: The First Physiologic Stress Test 1

2 Recognition of Hypertension in Medicine vs Obstetric-Gynecology Clinics APOs Pregnancy complications = Identification of CVD risk Physiologic stress tests in 85% of US women Identify women who would most benefit from primary prevention efforts to reduce the risk of CVD Schmittdiel J, et al.

BMJ. 2002;325(7356): Hemodynamic Changes in Pregnancy Unintended Consequences of Pregnancy 80% of women are parous 25% to 35% will have at least one complex pregnancy >20% of women carry pregnancy history indicative of CVD Especially black mothers Low birthweight: 7% Preterm delivery: 12% Hypertensive disorders: 15% Liu L, et al.

APOs with Increased CVD Risk GDM Gestational hypertension Pre-eclampsia Preterm delivery >80% of women bear at least 1 child ~30% of women have APOs ~25% of women carry a predictor of their future CVD risk Gestational Diabetes Mellitus 5% of pregnancies History of GDM CVD risk: adjusted odds ratio = 1.85 CVD events 7 years earlier than non-gdm 7-fold increase in risk of later type 2 diabetes Compared with women without diabetes mellitus, women with diabetes mellitus have a 3- to 7-fold increased CVD risk in contrast to a 2- to 4-fold increase in risk for men with diabetes mellitus Rich-Edwards JW, et al.

3 Gestational Hypertension 3% to 14% of pregnancies Strong association of gestational hypertension with development of chronic hypertension Increased ischemic heart disease and stroke mortality Associated with higher BMI, systolic and diastolic blood pressures and unfavorable lipid profile Attenuated by adjustment for pre-pregnancy measurements Increased CVD risk may be largely attributed to risk factors that were present before pregnancy Pre-Eclampsia ~25% of preterm births; 2%-5% of all births 4-fold higher incidence of hypertension Preceded by increased left ventricular mass and diastolic blood pressure at postpartum screening 3-fold higher incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus 2-fold elevated risk of CVD death Risk of CVD is higher in women exposed to early pre-eclampsia than in women diagnosed with pre-eclampsia later in pregnancy regardless of pre-eclampsia severity Lykke JA, et al.

Pregnancy can tell us about a woman s future risk of heart disease A detailed history and physical examination, including APOs, are important in stratifying the risk of heart disease Women with an APO are 2 to 8 times more likely to develop heart disease later in life Identifying and treating known heart disease risk markers, such as blood pressure and cholesterol, and leading a healthy active lifestyle can reduce the risk of heart disease Menopause, Hormones, and the Heart Chrisandra Shufelt, MD, MS, NCMP APO = adverse pregnancy outcome. 550 Cardiovascular Disease Deaths in the United States ( ) Women s Health Initiative Ages years Randomized Double-Blinded Trial Deaths (in thousands) Women Men Women who had no uterus at start of study Hysterectomy Women who had a uterus at start of study YES N= 10,739 NO N= 16,608 CEE mg/d Placebo CEE mg/d + MPA 2.5 mg/d Placebo Go AS, et al.
