Mashup Score: 6Disparities in Prenatal Diagnosis of Congenital Heart Defects: The Interplay of Insurance and Urbanicity | Journal of the American Heart Association - 4 month(s) ago
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common birth defects in the United States and a leading cause of infant mortality. 1 Prenatal diagnosis of CHD is associated with improved postnatal outcomes, 2 yet public insurance is associated with lower prenatal diagnosis rates. 3 Existing analyses have not fully characterized the intersecting effects of socioeconomic factors on prenatal diagnosis, which is necessary to guide policies and practices that address insurance‐related disparities in p renatal

Mashup Score: 7Prioritizing Health | Improving Care of Patients With Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy - American College of Cardiology - 5 month(s) ago
As the field of reproductive and maternal health has grown, awareness about the impact of hypertension during and after pregnancy on future cardiovascular health has also increased. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) affect about 8% to 10% of pregnant individuals and includes hypertension that occurs during and after pregnancy, such as chronic hypertension, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia and postpartum hypertension. Individuals who are Black, over the age of 35 years, and those

To help increase awareness of HDP, a new Postpartum Hypertension Clinic Development Toolkit was created and offers guidance for developing postpartum hypertension clinics and best practices for transitions in care. Read more: https://t.co/2jIy6Oz8bN #CardioObstetrics https://t.co/EcUZAlG5c5

Mashup Score: 16Implementation of First-trimester Screening and Prevention of Preeclampsia: a Stepped Wedge Cluster-randomized Trial in Asia | Circulation - 5 month(s) ago
Background: This trial aimed to assess the efficacy, acceptability and safety of a first-trimester screen-and-prevent strategy for preterm preeclampsia (PE) in Asia. Methods: Between 1st August 2019 and 28th February 2022, this multicenter stepped wedge cluster randomized trial included maternity/diagnostic units from ten regions in Asia. The trial started with a period where all recruiting centers provided routine antenatal care without study-related intervention. At regular six-week intervals, one cluster was randomized to transit from non-intervention phase to intervention phase. In the intervention phase, women underwent first-trimester screening for preterm PE using a Bayes theorem-based triple-test. High-risk women, with adjusted risk for preterm PE ≥ 1 in 100, received low-dose aspirin from <16 weeks until 36 weeks. Results: Overall, 88.04% (42,897/48,725) of women agreed to undergo first-trimester screening for preterm PE. Among those identified as high-risk in the intervention
