Medical Disorders Complicating Pregnancy

Hypertensive Disease/Preeclampsia

Diabetes Mellitus

Thyroid Disease

Obesity
OBJECTIVES

Define and classify hypertension in pregnancy
and describe the pathophysiology of preeclampsia/eclampsia syndrome

Describe the pathophysiology of diabetes
mellitus and thyroid disease in pregnancy
and obstetric complications of obesity
Medical Disorders and Pregnancy

Some medical problems unique to the pregnant state, others
may antedate or arise de novo during gestation

Gestation alters anatomy and physiology of most organ
systems, and may profoundly influence natural history of
medical disorders

Disease may jeopardize mother and/or fetus – increased
perinatal mortality and morbidity
Perinatal Mortality

Fetal Demise +

Neonatal death in the first 28 days after birth
Hypertensive Disorders (ACOG, 2013)

Chronic Hypertension

Gestational Hypertension

Preeclampsia/Eclampsia

Preeclampsia superimposed on CHTN
◦ complicate 10-20% of pregnancies
Chronic Hypertension

Systolic bp >140 mm Hg
◦ or

Diastolic bp > 90 mm Hg
◦ Antedates pregnancy, present before 20 wk ega, or persists longer than 12 wks
postpartum
◦ Essential HTN, or due to medical disorders
◦ Risk of adverse pregnancy outcome w/mild CHTN:




Superimposed preeclampsia: 10-25%
Abruptio placentae: 1%
Preterm birth: 12-34%
Fetal growth restriction: 8-16%
Gestational Hypertension



Sbp > 140 mm Hg
◦ or
Dbp > 90 mm Hg
◦ and
No proteinuria or systemic findings
◦ Developing after 20 wks
◦ If develops before 20 wks - CHTN
Gestational Hypertension

Development of preeclampsia in 15-25%

High recurrence rate, associated with subsequent CHTN

If mild, outcomes favorable

if severe, increased perinatal and maternal morbidity similar
to superimposed preeclampsia
Pre-eclampsia


New onset of hypertension and proteinuria after 20 wks gestation in previously normotensive woman.
In absence of proteinuria, preeclampsia with severe features diagnosed as HTN in association with:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Thrombocytopenia (< 100K_
Impaired liver function (LFT’s 2x normal)
New renal insufficiency (creat > 1.1 mg/dl)
Pulmonary edema
New-onset visual or cerebral disturbances
End –organ manifestations from mild-to severe microangiopathy of target organs



Brain
Liver
Kidney
placenta
Pathogenesis: abnormal development of placental vasculature early in pregnancy
◦
◦
relative placental underperfusion/hypoxia
release of factors which alter maternal endothelial cell function.
Clinical features of generalized endothelial cell dysfunction

Disturbed endothelial control of vascular tone
◦ hypertension

Increased vascular permeability
◦ Proteinuria/edema

Abnormal endothelial expression of procoagulants
◦ coagulopathy

Endothelial dysfunction in vasculature of target organs
◦
◦
◦
◦
Brain – headache, seizures
Liver – transaminitis, liver capsule distention/rupture
Kidney – oliguria, renal failure
Placenta – Intrauterine growth restriction, fetal hypoxia/distress, IUFD
Pathogenesis







Normal placental development:
Invasive cytotrophoblasts of fetal origin invade the maternal spiral arteries
transforming them from small-caliber resistance vessels to high caliber
capacitance vessels capable of providing placental perfusion adequate to
sustain fetal growth
Preeclampsia:
Cytotrophoblasts fail to adopt invasive endothelial phenotype
invasion of spiral arteries is shallow and they remain small caliber resistance
vessels
may result in placental ischemia
Preeclampsia

Critical role of placenta
◦ Placental tissue in necessary for development of the
disease, fetus is not
◦ Preeclampsia always cured after delivery of the
placenta
Preeclampsia

Defective cytotrophoblast cell differentiation of the developing
placenta

Defective cytotrophoblast invasion of the spiral arteries, decidual not
myometrial

Abnormal remodeling of spiral arteries

Placental hypoperfusion
◦ Critical component for elaboration of factors which alter maternal endothelial
cell function
Pathogenesis of Preeclampsia
Preeclampsia
◦ Systolic bp > 140mm Hg
or
◦ Diastolic bp > 90 mm Hg
◦ Proteinuria > 300 mg/24 hr
◦ Or, in the absence of proteinuria, new-onset HTN with
plts < 100K, creat > 1.1 mg/dl, LFTs 2x nl, pulmonary
edema, cerebral or visual symptoms

◦ Seizure prophylaxis
◦ Acute HTN control
◦ Steroids to promote fetal lung maturity
Diabetes

Gestational Diabetes
◦ A1 GDM (diet-controlled)
◦ A2 GDM (insulin- or OHA- requiring)

Type II Diabetes

Type I Diabetes
Diabetes

Affects up to 20%% of the more than 4 million pregnancies in the U.S.
yearly

Almost 75% of cases occur in women with GDM or undiagnosed DM II

Type I diabetes accounts for 1-2% of the pregnancies complicated by
diabetes (6000 in U.S. annually)
Etiological Classification of Diabetes

Type I

Type II
◦ Weak ethnic/familial concordance
◦ autoimmune activation (anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (anti-GAD) and anti-islet cell
(anti-ICA) antibodies)
◦ relatively rapid progression of beta cell destruction
◦ failure of endogenous insulin production
◦ minimal insulin resistance
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
manifestation of peripheral insulin resistance
strong ethnic/familial concordance
absence of autoimmune activation
slowly progressing failure of endogenous beta cell function and insulin production
positive correlation with obesity and sedentary lifestyle
Insulin Resistance
Human placental lactogen
 Progesterone
 Prolactin
 Placental growth hormone
 Cortisol

Diabetes

Coexistence of DM and pregnancy rare before the discovery of insulin in 1921:
maternal mortality of 20%, perinatal mortality of 60%

Since the 1940’s, perinatal mortality rates in DM decreased from 30% to 3%

In the 1980’s fetal perinatal mortality in context of type I diabetes was still 25%

Congenital malformations instead of IUFD now the major cause of perinatal death
and morbidity among infants of diabetic mothers
Dx - Pregestational Diabetes

FBS >125 mg/dl
Postprandial or random BS >200 mg/dl

Impaired glucose tolerance: FBS 95-125, RBS 140-200


Thyroid

Thyroid disorders are second only to diabetes as the most
common endocrinopathy of childbearing women

Worldwide most common cause is:
Iodine deficiency
over 1 billion people at risk
500 million living in areas of overt iodine deficiency





In the developed world most common cause is:
autoimmune thyroid disease
Thyroid Disorders
Prevalence in pregnant women
 Subclinical hypothyroidism: 2%
 Overt hypothyroidism: 0.5%
 Hyperthyroidism: 0.2%
Thyroid

Complex interplay of factors in pregnancy:
◦ Iodine deficiency
 profoundly impairs maternal and fetal thyroid function
 resultant increased risk of pregnancy loss
 major implications for fetal neuronal multiplication and
organization during the 2nd trimester
 irreversible neurologic deficit
Thyroid
◦ Maternal autoimmune thyroid disease may affect the fetus as well as the
mother
 Transplacental passage of
 abnormal maternal hormone concentrations
 TSH-receptor antibodies – (stimulatory or blocking)
 antithyroid medications

Sab
Intrauterine growth restriction
Preterm labor
Neonatal thyrotoxicosis
Cognitive dysfunction
Thyroid
◦ Thyroid function tests
 altered by the physiology of pregnancy
 ranges of normal, particularly TSH should be adjusted
◦ Hypermetabolic symptoms of normal pregnancy
 may mimic the clinical picture of some thyroid disorders
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Thyroid Axis in Pregnancy

Twofold elevation of TBG
◦ Reduced peripheral TBG degradation and clearance rates
◦ Result is increased total T4 and T3

Rise in TBG
◦ begins as early as the 20th postovulatory day
◦ maximum at week 20-24
◦ remains at this level until a few weeks postpartum
H-P-T Axis in Pregnancy

hCG has mild TSH activity
◦ structural homology between the beta subunits and the extracellular receptor
binding domains of hCG and TSH

hCG levels peak at 50-100,000 IU
◦ plateau at 10-20,000 IU at 20 wks.
◦

10,000 IU/L increment of hCG is associated with reduction of basal
TSH by 0.1 mU/L

During the first trimester 9% of pregnant women had subnormal
(>0.05,<0.4), and additional 9% had suppressed TSH
Hypothyroidism and Pregnancy – Differential Diagnosis
◦ Iodine deficiency
 most common cause worldwide
 fetal thyroid requires iodine substrate after first
trimester for thyroxine synthesis
 endemic cretinism is result of severe iodine deficiency
<25 mcg/day
Hypothyroidism Ddx

Post RAI Rx or thyroidectomy for Graves disease

Subacute viral thyroiditis/Suppurative thyroiditis

Hypothalamic/pituitary disease
◦ Sheehan’s syndrome
◦ lymphocytic hypophysitis

Inadequate replacement
◦ FeSo4, sucralfate interfere with absorption of T4;
◦ carbamazepine, phenytoin and rifampin increase renal clearance of T4


◦ Odds ratio of LGA infant
 Obesity
 Diabetes


4.4
However since relative prevalence of overweight is 47%, and diabetes is
5%, there is a four-fold greater number of LGA infants born of obese
women than women with diabetes
Macrosomia

Population risk of LGA delivery
◦ disproportionate prevalence of obesity

The population-attributable risks of LGA caused by
◦ obesity
1.3%
◦ overweight
0.5%
◦ pregestational diabetes
0.4%
Macrosomia
Of every 100 LGA deliveries:
 15 attributable to obesity or overweight
 4 attributable to pregestational diabetes


Pregravid maternal obesity is a strong independent risk factor for
delivering a LGA infant

Growing number of obese women responsible for growing number of
LGA infants, who in turn become obese adults and perhaps produce
similarly large offspring themselves
Increasing Birth Weight
Macrosomia

Maternal weight gain during pregnancy is positively correlated
with birth weight

Implication:
mean increase of 116 gm in term singleton birth weight over
the past 30 years more related to maternal obesity than
diabetes

Childhood Obesity

Children born to obese mothers (BMI > 30 in first trimester)
◦ Prevalence of childhood obesity (BMI > 95%ile) at ages 2, 3, and 4 yrs was 15, 20,
24% respectively
◦ Approx 2.5 times prevalence of obesity observed in children of mothers with
normal BMI

Both maternal pregravid obesity and presence of maternal diabetes may
independently affect risk of adolescent obesity in the offspring
Complications
◦ Gestational hypertension/Preeclampsia
◦ Gestational diabetes
◦ Increased preterm delivery as associated with maternal
medical and obstetric conditions
◦ IUFD
◦ Neural tube defects
◦ Cesarean delivery
Complications

Take-Home Points

Pregnancy may complicate or exacerbate preexisting medical conditions,
to the detriment of mother, baby or both

Most common associated conditions are hypertensive disorders,
diabetes, thyroid disorders, and obesity

Good contraception and preconception planning is particularly important
in this setting
Take-Home Points

Healthy outcome for mother and baby requires planning, thorough
evaluation, good longitudinal care with interdisciplinary coordination

Caring for these patients integrates the intellectual challenges of internal
medicine with the interventional and compelling nature of obstetrics and
gynecology practice
