Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Determine if HBPT decreases the severity of postpartum hypertension complication

    Postpartum outcomes between women being monitored to those from the previous year who received no postpartum blood pressure monitoring will be compared. Women will be monitored and we measure Systolic, Diastolic and Mean arterial pressure and to see if HPBT decreases the severity of postpartum hypertension from previous baseline measurements from women who had no interventions. Percentages of patients with controlled blood pressure at each time point will be compared to previous BP measurements.

    9 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Increase awareness and knowledge of postpartum blood pressure control in a group of high-risk women

    9 months

  • Assess compliance using HBPT and adherence to blood pressure medication

Study Arms (1)

Remote Surveillance

EXPERIMENTAL

Women will use the home blood pressure monitoring device to record their blood pressure everyday for the first postpartum week, and then weekly until postpartum week 6.

Device: Home Blood Pressure Telemonitoring

Interventions

Women will complete a 9-question survey (pre-education) prior to discharge and will go over an education video a study team member. Once discharged, women will be asked to measure their blood pressure daily for the first postpartum week, and then weekly until postpartum week 6. Women who have a doctor's visit scheduled during the first 10 days, a member of the study team will meet them there to assess blood pressure and answer any questions. Women who do not have a visit scheduled they will have a telehealth visit during days 8-10 to complete the same assessments. At the final visit, participants will measure their blood pressure via HBPT, prior to returning the unit, complete a post-education questionnaire, a post-study questionnaire and have any questions or concerns addressed.

Data Sharing

IPD Sharing
Will share

All women will receive a de-identified laminated notecard that has their study results (Type of hypertensive pregnancy, gestational age at delivery, discharged and current blood pressure medication, last study blood pressure, and readmission status) on it that can be shared with any new provider (including non-obstetrical). As stated in the study consent, a letter outlining the same information will also be sent to the obstetrician listed in the patient's medical record

Shared Documents
CSR
Time Frame
Within 7 days of study completion each participant will receive their personal data as outlined in the study consent.
Access Criteria
Each patient will be mailed their information.
