Remote Patient Monitoring for Chronic Hypertension During Pregnancy (REACH)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

We hypothesize that frequent remote monitoring of blood pressure and real-time antihypertensive medication titration will optimize pregnancy outcomes in a clinically meaningful and cost-effective manner compared to the current standard of care. Therefore, this pilot study, as part of the K12 training support, will evaluate the feasibility of a randomized clinical trial to treat mild chronic hypertension with medication therapy to a blood pressure goal of less than 140/90 mmHg based on remote daily patient monitoring compared to in-office blood pressure readings.
