Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand if administration of a personalized dose of the anti-hypertensive medication, labetalol, based on patient's history of preexisting hypertension, will be more effective at controlling severe hypertension during pregnancy, compared to the current standard dosing.


Clinical Trial Description

The investigators seek to asses the effect of preexisting hypertension on the patient's response to treatment for severe hypertension in preeclampsia with severe features. The investigators hypothesize that successive administration of 40-60-80 mg of labetolol will reduce time to blood pressure control versus the standard dosing, 20-40-80 mg labetolol, recommended by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists in 2015. ;
