Dr. Jaimey Pauli narrows down the recent recommendations from ACOG on hypertensive disorders in pregnancy
In November 2013, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) published a 99-page report on hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. The classification, diagnosis, prediction, prevention, and management of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and chronic hypertension were addressed, although preeclampsia was the main focus.
In this audiocast, Dr. Pauli sifts through the guidelines and discusses the changes that will be implemented at her institution.
Dr. Pauli and John T. Repke, MD, are co-authors of the Update on Obstetrics (January 2014).
