Summary
This study tests whether a simple educational guide can help postpartum patients who had high blood pressure during pregnancy become more active in their own care. Researchers will give the tool to some mothers shortly after delivery and compare their engagement scores with those who did not receive it. The goal is to see if the tool improves how patients manage their health in the weeks after birth.
