Hypertension in Pregnancy Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Nifedipine and Enalapril in Medical Resources Used in the Postpartum Period
This study evaluates whether nifedipine or enalapril is better at decreasing the amount of medical resources used in the postpartum period by women who have high blood pressure in pregnancy and the postpartum period. Half of participants will receive enalapril while the other half will receive enalapril. We will compare the two groups in the amount of medical resources used which we are defining as prolonged hospitalizations, unscheduled medical visits and/or hospital readmissions in the postpartum period.
This is randomized controlled trial to investigate if enalapril is superior to nifedipine in terms of medical resources used in postpartum women with hypertension. These are both antihypertensives we commonly use in the postpartum period for women with hypertension in pregnancy but we do not know which medication works better at decreasing prolonged hospitalizations, the number of unscheduled medical visits and/or readmissions to the hospital. Nifedipine is more traditionally used and well-validated by current medical literature. However, enalapril's mechanism of action is better suited to the dysregulation of blood pressure that can occur with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Therefore, we hypothesize that enalapril is superior to nifedipine in terms of medical resources used in the postpartum period. ;
