Mariane Bertagnolli's聽 PT, PhD,聽research program focuses on elucidating women鈥檚 physiological responses to exercise and cardiac rehabilitation interventions. Her target population is women who have had severe hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, such as pre-eclampsia, and who are at increased risk of developing heart disease in the years following pregnancy. Her lab investigates whether and how cardiac and obstetric rehabilitation programs can improve women鈥檚 physical function in the postpartum period and, ultimately, prevent lifelong heart disease. Her team is currently preparing a series of studies to help shape this new field of rehabilitation. The webinar series aims to bring in international experts that will directly contribute to identifying vulnerable women and designing effective protocols to advance the cardio-obstetric rehabilitation field.
