Summary

This study tests a decision aid—a tool that provides information and goal-setting exercises—to help women who had high blood pressure during pregnancy take steps to protect their heart health after childbirth. The goal is to improve engagement in preventive care like blood pressure control, weight management, and physical activity. The study involves 30 women who recently delivered at the University of Utah and who speak English or Spanish.
