Does Timing of Diagnosis of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy Impact Blood Pressure Resolution?
American Journal of Perinatology 2024 September 24
OBJECTIVE: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) can be diagnosed prior to labor, during labor, or postpartum. We evaluated whether the timing of HDP diagnosis impacts postpartum blood pressure (BP) outcomes.
STUDY DESIGN: Secondary analysis of 384 patients with HDP from a trial evaluating furosemide use on BP outcomes. The timing of HDP diagnosis was categorized into: diagnosis in the antepartum period, prior to labor versus diagnosis peripartum (during labor or first day postpartum). Outcomes included time to resolution of hypertension, and persistent hypertension 7 days postpartum. Logistic and Cox regression models were used.
RESULTS: Patients diagnosed in the peripartum period had a shorter median time to postpartum BP resolution after adjusting for severity of HDP, mode of delivery and furosemide use (5.5 vs. 6.5 days, aHR 1.18, 95% CI [1.11 - 1.25]) Conclusion: Patients diagnosed with HDP in the peripartum period experience a faster BP resolution than those diagnosed in the antepartum period.
