Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Prospective interventional armExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The prospective cohort will identify patients in the postpartum period of their delivery hospitalization who are at risk of readmission for hypertensive disorders in the initial six weeks postpartum. Those at risk include patients with diagnosed with chronic hypertension or PIH. Chronic hypertension is defined as either taking antihypertensive medications or a blood pressure of greater than or equal to 140/90 mm Hg prior to 20 weeks of gestation. Pregnancy induced hypertension includes gestational hypertension, preeclampsia without severe features, preeclampsia with severe features and Hemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes and Low Platelets (HELLP). The minimum requirement to be diagnosed with this spectrum of disorders is having two blood pressures of greater than or equal to 140/90 mm Hg during the antepartum, intrapartum or postpartum periods.
Group II: Retrospective observational armActive Control1 Intervention
The retrospective cohort will include all patients diagnosed with chronic hypertension or pregnancy-induced hypertensive (PIH) disorders at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center in the past two years, including those presenting to the Emergency Department or readmitted for hypertensive disorders, during the immediate six weeks postpartum.
