Can tighter blood pressure control after pregnancy save lives?
NCT ID NCT06069102
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a stricter blood pressure goal (below 135/85) after a pregnancy complicated by high blood pressure is better than the usual care (below 150/100). About 60 new mothers were enrolled and followed for six months. The goal is to see if tighter control is possible and if it leads to lower blood pressure and fewer hospital readmissions.
