Filter by:Investigators propose a comprehensive management program for postpartum patients with HDP who are at risk for severe maternal morbidity and mortality. Our program will emphasize three key components: 1) self-monitoring of blood pressures with app-based reporting connected to our electronic health record, 2) blood pressure management directed by a program navigator with guideline and physician support and 3) facilitated transitions of care to primary care clinicians for hypertension management. Investigators will randomize 300 patents with HDP on postpartum day one with follow up through 3 months postpartum. Primary outcome will be blood pressure reporting at 7-10 postpartum. Secondary outcomes include blood pressure control at 7-10 days postpartum, identification and treatment of severe blood pressures, severe maternal morbidity, hospital readmission, triage visits for hypertension, postpartum and primary care visit attendance, and multiple patient-reported outcome measures. All outcomes will be stratified by race (Black and non-Black) to evaluate disparities and by tight versus usual blood pressure control to evaluate the impact of strict postpartum blood pressure control on outcomes. Investigators hypothesize that a comprehensive postpartum HDP management program will improve hypertension control for all patients and reduce disparities that affect Black patients, and that stricter blood pressure control will be associated with fewer adverse outcomes.
Randomized trial comparing risk of hospital readmission and hypertensive complications between patients managed on Labetalol compared to Nifedipine.
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are important cause of severe morbidity, long-term disability and death among both mothers and their babies. In Africa and Asia, nearly one tenth of all maternal deaths are associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy research has focused on the antenatal complications' for both mother and baby and the risks and benefits of administering antihypertensive therapy prior to delivery hypertension disorders of pregnancy often persist following delivery and sometimes arise de novo postpartum one of the maternal complications of pre eclampsia is residual chronic hypertension in about 1/3 of cases elevated blood pressure is seen in 6%to 8% of all pregnancies hypertension (arterial pressure >140/90 mmhg) in pregnancy is classified into one of four conditions 1. chronic hypertension that precedes pregnancy 2. pre eclampsia and eclampsia: a systematic syndrome of elevated arterial pressure,proteinuria and other findings 3. pre eclampsia superimposed upon chronic hypertension 4. gestational hypertension or nonproteinuric hypertension of pregnancy
