NCT07185204
The goal of this study is to address the significant morbidity associated with preeclampsia diagnosed after delivery. All participants will undergo biomarker evaluation with soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 and placental growth factor (sFlt-1/PlGF) ratio testing before delivery to assess the predictive ability of these biomarkers with new-onset postpartum preeclampsia. High-risk participants will be randomized to a bundle of care strategies aimed at early detection and management of postpartum preeclampsia.
NCT05849103
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.
NCT05049616
The purpose of this study is to see if a combined pill of Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (a medication that helps relax your veins and arteries to lower your blood pressure) with diuretics (sometimes called water pills, help rid your body of salt and water) will control blood pressure better than a different blood pressure medication of calcium channel blocker (lower your blood pressure by preventing calcium from entering the cells of your heart and arteries). Both medications are part of our usual care for high blood pressure after delivery.
NCT06576544
To better understand postpartum blood pressure changes, the investigators are proposing a study to monitor blood pressure after delivery in 100 patients who the investigators expect to have normal blood pressure (i.e. low-risk group), 100 patients who the investigators expect to be at risk of new-onset high blood pressure postpartum (i.e. intermediate-risk group), and 100 patients who had high blood pressure prior to pregnancy (or very early, before 20 weeks in pregnancy) who the investigators know are at high risk of blood-pressure related complications postpartum (i.e. high-risk group). Patients will be given a non-invasive wearable device that monitors blood pressure continuously for 6 weeks postpartum. The investigators expect that the daily changes in blood pressure will be different between these groups, which may allow us to better predict who is at risk, how much monitoring is needed, and when to intervene before the blood pressure abnormalities cause complications. The blood pressure device that will be given to patients is the YHE® BP Doctor Med Blood Pressure Smartwatch. This is a highly-accurate medical grade device that has not received FDA clearance. As such, the device is not being used to make blood pressure management and treatment decisions, but rather to gather data on postpartum cardiovascular physiology. Safety stops are built into the protocol such that elevated readings detected by the watch will trigger clinical referrals and validation by standard blood pressure cuffs prior to determine need for treatment.
NCT06310720
This is a prospective, single-center, randomized control study to determine if video education at the time of postpartum discharge improves patient knowledge on the warning signs for the top three causes of severe maternal morbidity (infection, hemorrhage, and blood pressure disorders) in the first seven days following delivery for self-identified, Black, Latinx, other with two or more self-identified races, Medicaid, and/or uninsured postpartum individuals. Participants will be randomized to written discharge education + video education (intervention) vs standard discharge education (control). They will complete a baseline questionnaire and a post-discharge education questionnaire during their postpartum stay to assess for knowledge improvement. The investigators hypothesize that video education will improve patient's knowledge of severe maternal morbidity warning signs.
NCT04752475
Primary objective: To evaluate whether oral furosemide can help prevent de novo postpartum hypertension (new-onset high blood pressure after delivery) by reducing blood pressure after delivery in high-risk women. Secondary objectives: To evaluate whether oral furosemide administered to high-risk women after delivery can reduce the frequency of postpartum hypertensive episodes, the need for antihypertensive therapy, the risk of postpartum preeclampsia, and the incidence of severe maternal morbidity.
NCT05309460
Randomized trial comparing risk of hospital readmission and hypertensive complications between patients managed on Labetalol compared to Nifedipine.
NCT05775744
The aim of this study is to assess the effect of a lower treatment threshold for antihypertensive medication and tighter blood pressure control, using remote blood pressure monitoring, on reducing Emergency Room visits for our postpartum patients with hypertensive disease.
NCT03298802
Postpartum prophylactic HCTZ administration for prevention and relapse of preeclampsia or gestational hypertension.
