Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand if administration of a personalized dose of the anti-hypertensive medication, labetalol, based on patient's history of preexisting hypertension, will be more effective at controlling severe hypertension during pregnancy, compared to the current standard dosing.

Conditions

  • Preeclampsia With Severe Features
  • Chronic Hypertension in Obstetric Context

Interventions

DRUG

Experimental dosing of labetalol

Subjects with preexisting hypertension who have sustained severe hypertension (SBP≥160 mmHg and/or DBP≥110 mmHg), 15 min apart receive the experimental dosing of labetolol. Subjects in both groups are managed following the standard guidelines established by ACOG (Committee Opinion #623). For each successive episode of hypertension treatment, patients are asked a set of questions to monitor for adverse medication side-effects. The fetus is electronically monitored for four hours after the last IV dose.

OTHER

Standard dosing of labetalol

Subjects with preexisting hypertension who have sustained severe hypertension (SBP≥160 mmHg and/or DBP≥110 mmHg), 15 min apart receive either the standard of care dosing of labetolol. Subjects in both groups are managed following the standard guidelines established by ACOG (Committee Opinion #623). For each successive episode of hypertension treatment, patients are asked a set of questions to monitor for adverse medication side-effects. The fetus is electronically monitored for four hours after the last IV dose.
