Abstract

Maternal cardiovascular adaptation during pregnancy is essential for fetal development. Structural and functional changes, including increased blood volume, heart rate, and myocardial hypertrophy, are crucial for optimal tissue perfusion. Recent evidence supports viewing maternal and fetal cardiovascular systems as a unified functional unit, emphasizing the significance of hemodynamic evaluation in pregnancy. Some obstetrical syndromes result from maladaptive maternal cardiovascular responses. Non-invasive hemodynamic tests, like transthoracic echocardiography, aid in distinguishing phenotypes, guiding tailored management strategies for hypertensive disorders. Establishing obstetric hemodynamics as a multidisciplinary field, termed "Obstetric Echodynamics," promises improved clinical care through standardized practices, interdisciplinary cooperation, and enhanced education.
