•• How should women with an HDP be managed
regarding initial investigations, dietary and lifestyle
changes, place of care, antihypertensive therapy,
aspects of care specific to women with preeclampsia
(such as magnesium sulphate), mode and timing of
delivery, intrapartum care (including BP monitoring and
analgesia/anaesthesia), and postpartum monitoring,
treatment, and counselling regarding the impact of an
HDP on both future pregnancy outcomes and longterm
maternal and paediatric outcomes?
•• What is the patient’s perspective on her diagnosis and
evaluation?
