摘要
In conjunction with significant cardiovascular adaptation, changes in cardioautonomic balance, specifically greater sympathetic activation and vagal withdrawal, are considered normal adaptations to healthy singleton pregnancy. Cardiovascular adaptation to twin pregnancy is more profound than that of singleton pregnancies; however, the changes in cardioautonomic control during multifetal gestation are unknown. To address this gap, beat-by-beat blood pressure (photoplethysmography) and heart rate (lead II electrocardiogram) were measured continuously in 25 twin pregnancies and 25 singleton pregnancies (matched for age, prepregnancy body mass index, and gestational age) during 10 min of rest. Data extracted from a 3- to 5-min period were used to analyze heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure variability (BPV), cardiovagal baroreflex gain, and cardiac intervals as indicators of cardioautonomic control. Independent t tests were used to determine statistical differences between groups (alpha = 0.05), and the false rate discovery was determined to adjust for multiple comparisons. Resting heart rate was greater in twin compared with singleton pregnancies (91 +/- 10 vs. 81 +/- 10 beats/min; P = 0.001), but blood pressure was not different. Individuals with twin pregnancies had lower HRV, evidenced by lower standard deviation of R-R intervals (32 +/- 11 vs. 47 +/- 18 ms; P = 0.001), total power (1,035 +/- 810 vs. 1,945 +/- 1,570 ms(2); P = 0.004), and high frequency power (224 +/- 262 vs. 810 +/- 806 ms(2); P < 0.001) compared with singleton pregnancies. There were no differences in cardiac intervals, BPV, and cardiovagal baroreflex gain between groups. Our findings suggest that individuals with twin pregnancies have greater sympathetic and lower parasympathetic contributions to heart rate and that cardiac, but not vascular, autonomic control is impacted during twin compared with singleton pregnancy.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Individuals with healthy twin pregnancies had lower overall heart rate variability compared with those with singleton pregnancies at similar gestational ages. These results suggest a greater sympathetic and reduced parasympathetic contribution to cardiac control in twin pregnancies. Baseline heart rate was elevated, while arterial pressure and spontaneous cardiovagal baroreflex gain were not different between groups. This was result of the upward resetting of the cardiovagal baroreflex during healthy twin pregnancy, thus maintaining arterial pressure.
