HOPE-BP 2.0: Evaluating the Optimal Duration of Postpartum Remote Blood Pressure Monitoring
Sponsor: University of Minnesota
Summary
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.

Interventions
2-Week Home Monitoring
Those who are randomized into the 2-week intervention arm will be unenrolled from the postpartum remote blood pressure monitoring program and therefore will no longer be transmitting twice daily blood pressures for review.
6-Week Home Monitoring
HOPE-BP provides remote monitoring for the 35% of approximately 2,800 annual births at our institution complicated by HDP. Eligible patients enroll at hospital discharge into a 6-week program, submitting blood pressure readings twice daily via Epic's MyChart Care Companion. Participants receive immediate automated feedback, and a dedicated Maternal Fetal Medicine nursing team reviews data daily (Monday-Friday, 8 AM-4 PM), initiating or adjusting antihypertensive therapy as needed.
