In women with early-onset preeclampsia, cardiovascular adaption occurs to minimize wall stress and myocardial oxygenation. The prevalence of diastolic dysfunction was observed to be lower with the 2016 criteria. Further studies involving pregnant women are required to assess the impact of newer guidelines on association with short- and long-term cardiovascular outcomes in high-risk women.
