Resume

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific hypertensive disorder associated with increased maternal and perinatal morbidity. Emerging evidence indicates that women with a history of preeclampsia have a significantly higher risk of long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD) postpartum. This review summarizes epidemiological findings, pathophysiological mechanisms, and clinical implications related to cardiovascular risk in postpartum women with prior preeclampsia. Women with early-onset or severe preeclampsia are particularly prone to chronic hypertension, metabolic syndrome, heart failure, ischemic heart disease, and stroke. Early postpartum monitoring, lifestyle interventions, and patient education are essential to reduce long-term cardiovascular morbidity. Further research is needed to optimize prevention and management strategies in this high-risk population.

Keywords: Preeclampsia, postpartum, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, maternal health.
