About this trial

In this study, at least 400 women with high-risk of pregnancy hypertension will use a wearable device to monitor the blood pressure during gestational age from 12 weeks to 28weeks. The observed outcomes including maternal and offspring. Participants were from three hospital including Shanghai Xinhua Hospital, Jiaxing Maternal and Child Health Hospital and Peking University Third Hospital. Pregnant women were randomly divided into control group (routine delivery examination group) and intervention group (routine delivery examination group + use of wearable blood pressure monitoring device group), 200 cases each.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • wearable device to monitor the blood pressure

    Device

    Pregnant women began to establish antenatal examination records (usually before 12 weeks of pregnancy), and were enrolled through randomized grouping. Pregnant women in the intervention group were provided with wearable blood pressure monitoring equipment, and ambulate blood pressure monitoring was conducted for at least 2 24 hours per week from 12 weeks of pregnancy until 28 weeks of pregnancy, after which blood pressure monitoring was carried out according to routine antenatal examination.

Maternal blood pressure change

24-hour weekly blood pressure and its fluctuation in pregnant women from 12 to 20 weeks of gestation would be measure in mmHg.

Time frame
16 weeks
2

Maternal complications

The incidence of hypertension in pregnancy, pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, placental abruption, transient ischemic attack or stroke, and HELLP syndrome, which would be stated in percentages.

Time frame

Offspring outcomes

Including incidence such as neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis, early-onset thrombocytopenia, early-onset neutropenia, hypoglycemia, congenital hypothyroidism, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, necrotizing enterocolitis, recurrent respiratory infections, infantile wheeze etc., which would be stated in percentages.

Time frame
up to 24 months
4
