One in five women present with a diagnosis of new-onset PPCH within 3 months postpartum in a cohort of predominantly preterm and/or severe pre-eclampsia. A significant but weak association of PPCH with peripartum clinical characteristics was noted. The role of biochemical, hemodynamic, and echocardiographic biomarkers should be evaluated for prediction of PPCH after pre-eclampsia in future studies.
