Gestational Blood Pressure Trajectories and 5-Year Postpartum Hypertension Risk in the MADRES Study.

18 However, the group that had the highest initial BP and a decreasing trend over 20 gestational weeks, similar to our “high-drop-high” group in the first half of pregnancy, had the highest risk of pre-eclampsia. 18 Like our “consistently elevated” group, the second highest risk group was characterized by a subclinically elevated initial BP and a flattened trend over pregna

Across groups from “consistently low” to “consistently elevated” to “high-drop-high,” there is an increasing trend in the risk of preterm birth (8.5%, 13%, 22%), pre-eclampsia (5.8%, 9.4%, 43%), gestational hypertension (4.8%, 14%, 16%), and type 2 diabetes (3.5%, 7.5%, 14%).
