High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I Level and Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction on Severe Preeclampsia

Abstract

Objective: To know the relationship between high-sensitivity cardiac Troponin I (hscTnI) level with left ventricular dysfunction on severe preeclampsia.Methods: An observational analytics study with a cross-sectional approach of ten pregnant women with severe preeclampsia who underwent delivery or termination pregnancy and then performed a transthoracic echocardiography examination and serum levels of hscTnI.Results: There is a significant relationship between hscTnI levels and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (p
