Cardiovascular Health After Preeclampsia: Patient and Provider Perspective

Exploring education preferences of Australian women regarding long-term health after hypertensive disorders of pregnancy: a qualitative perspective

“…A study in the USA [ 19 ] reports similar findings regarding preferred educational content, such as effects on children and awareness of signs and symptoms of conditions women are at higher risk of, which suggests some common international needs and preferences. In addition, our preceding survey study [ 25 ] and Seely et al [ 38 ] found that in Australia and the USA respectively, women do not receive desired information from their HCPs and therefore resort to internet searches. Like this interview study and the preceding survey study [ 25 ], Seely et al in the USA also found that women are not receiving desired information via their HCP and resort to web-based searches.…”

“…Like this interview study and the preceding survey study [ 25 ], Seely et al in the USA also found that women are not receiving desired information via their HCP and resort to web-based searches. Frustration regarding lack of available information post-HDP was expressed by women in both studies [ 38 ], with women emphasising a need for multiple information formats including print, online or mobile application.…”

Bridging the Chasm between Pregnancy and Health over the Life Course: A National Agenda for Research and Action

“…Research has demonstrated that pregnancy is a form of stress test, predicting future challenges to a woman's health. Complications such as gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), pregnancyinduced hypertension, depression, and substance use disorder point to the risk for future chronic illness (Allalou et al, 2016;Honigberg et al, 2020;Seely et al, 2020). For example, women with GDM have 10 times the risk of developing type 2 diabetes (9.51; 95% confidence interval, 7.14-12.67; p < .001) as healthy controls (Vounzoulaki et al, 2020) and have a two-fold higher risk of cardiovascular events in the following decade (Kramer, Campbell, & Retnakaran, 2019).…”

Setting the Agenda for Reproductive and Maternal Health in the Era of COVID-19: Lessons from a Cruel and Radical Teacher

“…Key maternal morbidities, such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia and hypertensive disorders are linked to future risk of chronic illness (type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease) (Kramer et al 2019;Ying et al 2018;Seely et al 2020)-all disproportionately experienced by women of color (Garcia and Sharif 2015). These conditions require careful monitoring, testing, and postpartum follow-up, yet all were unevenly available pre- COVID-19 (McCloskey et al 2019), in part due to loss of insurance coverage for those ineligible for continued Medicaid coverage after 60 days postpartum.…”
