Overview
Postpartum remote blood pressure monitoring programs for patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are becoming part of standard postpartum management. Existing programs range in duration from 2 to 6 weeks but there has not been any evaluation as to what program duration is optimal. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of program duration on clinical outcomes for patients participating in a single institution's postpartum remote blood pressure monitoring program for patients with HDP.
