Abstract

The cardiovascular health index (CVH) is a composite index consisting of 7 CVH metrics (CVHM) to evaluate the cardiovascular health status in the population. CVH has been proven to be closely related to a variety of health outcomes and widely used in the prevention of many diseases and the evaluation of intervention effectiveness. This review summarizes the recent distribution of CVH and CVHM in pregnant women and the relationship between CVH and CVHM with adverse health outcomes, which aims to explore the application of CVH and CVHM in preventing pregnancy-related diseases and improving the long-term health level of perinatal women and their offspring.

心血管健康指数(CVH)是一个由7项心血管健康指标(CVHM)组成的复合指标,用以评估人群心血管健康水平,已被证实与多种健康结局密切相关,广泛用于多种疾病的预防及干预效果评价。本文就CVH及CVHM在妊娠期女性中的分布,及其与不良妊娠结局等多种健康结局之间的关系进行综述,探讨CVH及CVHM在预防妊娠期相关疾病、提高孕产妇及子代长期健康水平中的应用价值。.
