Seeing plaque to improve heart health after pregnancy
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether showing women images of their own artery plaque can help them better control blood pressure one year after childbirth. It is for women who had certain pregnancy problems like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, early birth, or a baby that grew too slowly.

This study checks heart health in women who had pregnancy complications (like preeclampsia) 3–6 years ago, compared to women who had a healthy pregnancy. It aims to find early signs of heart disease so doctors can help prevent it.
This study follows pregnant women with heart conditions to understand how pregnancy affects their heart health and their baby's health. You may join if you have one or more heart conditions, such as a heart defect, a heart infection, an irregular heartbeat, or a blood vessel problem.
This study looks at heart and metabolic health during late pregnancy and after delivery, tracking both healthy women and those with complications like high blood pressure or diabetes in pregnancy. The goal is to understand how these risks change and what can be done to improve long-term health.
This study looks at how cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) health during pregnancy is linked to pregnancy outcomes. It may help doctors better predict and improve outcomes by using information from routine prenatal care.
